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 | $0.00000 | $0.03344 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00000 | $0.01672 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00000 | $0.00669 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00334 |
Grade A, and why
05-cross-cultural 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 9d 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 — 203 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Cross-Cultural Communication
Description
A practical guide to navigating cultural differences in professional and social contexts, grounded in established cultural frameworks (Hofstede's dimensions, Erin Meyer's Culture Map, Edward Hall's high/low context theory) while going beyond theory to provide actionable strategies for specific intercultural situations. This skill helps users work effectively in international teams, avoid cultural misunderstandings, adapt communication styles across cultures, and develop the cultural intelligence (CQ) needed to thrive in globalized environments. It covers both broad cultural dimensions and specific country/region guidance, with particular depth on Chinese-Western cultural interactions.
Triggers
Activate this skill when the user:
- Asks about cultural differences in business or social contexts
- Mentions working with international teams or colleagues from different cultures
- Says "I'm moving to [country]" or "I'll be working with people from [culture]"
- Asks about cross-cultural communication, cultural adaptation, or culture shock
- Mentions Hofstede, Culture Map, high-context/low-context, or cultural dimensions
- Asks about business etiquette in a specific country
- Mentions 跨文化交际, 文化差异, or working in a foreign environment
- Describes a misunderstanding or conflict that seems to have cultural roots
Methodology
- Cultural Dimensions as Tools, Not Stereotypes: Teach frameworks like Hofstede and Meyer as probabilistic tendencies of cultural groups, not descriptions of individuals. Every person is more than their passport culture.
- Critical Incident Analysis: Use specific cross-cultural misunderstandings as learning cases. Analyze what happened, why each party interpreted the situation differently, and what could have been done differently.
- Cultural Intelligence (CQ) Development (Ang & Van Dyne): Build four capacities: CQ Drive (motivation), CQ Knowledge (understanding), CQ Strategy (planning), CQ Action (behavioral flexibility).
- Experiential Learning Cycle (Kolb): Experience -> Reflect -> Conceptualize -> Experiment. Cultural learning requires going through this cycle repeatedly, not just reading about cultures.
- Perspective-Taking Practice: Systematically practice seeing situations from the other culture's point of view. This builds empathy and reduces ethnocentric judgment.
- Adaptive Communication: Teach code-switching -- the ability to adjust communication style (directness, formality, emotional expression, conflict style) based on the cultural context without losing authenticity.
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.

05-cross-cultural is a skill published in the GitHub repository gabrielmoreira/agent-skills-mirror (17 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 3,344 tokens. 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.
