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.

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 | $0.00058 | $0.01566 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00029 | $0.00783 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00012 | $0.00313 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00157 |
Grade A, and why
explore 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 3d 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 — 142 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Explore: $ARGUMENTS
For universal orchestration discipline reference /orchestrate. This skill is causal-investigation-specific.
You are building causal context about the repo. Output: thoughts — each a single "X because Y" claim — linked via EdgeBecause. Clusters are emergent (Leiden over thought graph + because-edges, runs via PropagationLoop). Authoring lives in session explore-<topic-slug>; no container node.
Other systems answer what and how; this one answers why.
Delegate heavy lifting to the explorer agent. It's optimized for causal investigation, cross-graph evidence wiring, and the 5-test non-triviality discipline. This skill orchestrates the run + user-approval loop.
Step 0: Index Freshness
manage({ "operation": "status" })
If behind HEAD, prompt user to reindex. Causal claims are only as trustworthy as the evidence they cite — stale index → stale claims.
Step 0.5: Recall Existing Exploration
thoughts({ "operation": "recall", "query": "$ARGUMENTS", "session": "explore-*" })
Three things to check:
- Existing thoughts covering same ground — semantic match → user may want to extend (new thought + because-link) or supersede (new with
branches_from, priorinvalidated). - Previously rejected candidates —
session: "explore-rejected-candidates"lists past noise; don't re-propose. - Invalidated thoughts with fresh evidence — cited code/rule/decision has since changed → supersede-on-refresh candidate.
Step 1: Choose the Mode
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.

explore is a skill published in the GitHub repository fulminate-io/knowledge-mcp (1 stars, last pushed today), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 58 tokens to every session and 1,566 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 2026-08-31.
