Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

What it costs to keep this loaded
Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00058 | $0.01411 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00029 | $0.00705 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00012 | $0.00282 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00141 |
Grade A, and why
interview-me scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 7d ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 157 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Research Interview
Conduct a structured interview to help formalise a research idea into a concrete specification.
Input: $ARGUMENTS — a brief topic description or "start fresh" for open-ended exploration.
How This Works
This is a conversational skill. Instead of producing a report immediately, you conduct an interview by asking questions one at a time, probing deeper based on answers, and building toward a structured research specification.
Do NOT use the available structured-question mechanism. Ask questions directly in your text responses, one or two at a time. Wait for the user to respond before continuing.
Before starting, read .context/profile.md and .context/projects/_index.md to understand the researcher's areas and active projects. If the topic relates to an existing project, read its context file too.
Interview Structure
Phase 1: The Big Picture (1–2 questions)
- "What phenomenon or puzzle are you trying to understand?"
- "Why does this matter? Who should care about the answer?"
Phase 2: Theoretical Motivation (1–2 questions)
- "What's your intuition for why X happens / what drives Y?"
- "What would standard theory predict? Do you expect something different?"
Phase 3: Data and Setting (1–2 questions)
- "What data do you have access to, or what data would you ideally want?"
- "Is there a specific context, time period, or institutional setting you're focused on?"
Phase 4: Identification (1–2 questions)
- "Is there a natural experiment, policy change, or source of variation you can exploit?"
- "What's the biggest threat to a causal interpretation?"
Phase 5: Expected Results (1–2 questions)
- "What would you expect to find? What would surprise you?"
- "What would the results imply for policy or theory?"
Phase 6: Contribution (1 question)
- "How does this differ from what's already been done? What's the gap you're filling?"
Adapting to the Research Area
the user's work spans multiple disciplines. Adapt the interview to the domain:
What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

interview-me is a skill published in the GitHub repository flonat/flonat-research (133 stars, last pushed 16d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 58 tokens to every session and 1,411 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.

Generate structured paper outline adapted to target journal.
doc-audit
Evaluate one project document in detail — a workbook section, big picture, strategy map, handoff message, paper, brief, or primer — without editing it. Runs the mechanical lint, builds a claim ledger, types every headline against the eight claim statuses in CLAUDE.md, traces cited evidence to the scripts and logs that…
latex-compile
Compile a LaTeX document and fix every error plus aesthetic issue (overfull/underfull boxes, widows, alignment, fonts) for a clean PDF and log. Use this instead of running pdflatex/latexmk manually — it avoids the latexmk stale-log trap and silent grep failures on binary log output, and it reformats rather than…
claim-audit
Audit what a passing script actually established, before writing any prose about it — build the computed-object ledger, rewrite every check's label as the weakest statement that makes its body pass, and separate the verdict on someone else's work from your own new claim. Run after the script passes and BEFORE the…
