Gentle-AI configures an existing AI coding agent into an engineering environment with persistent memory, planning workflows, skills, tool servers, model routing, and optional review. Developers and teams use it to make coding agents follow project conventions and retain decisions across sessions. The catalogue entries are its skills, commands, agents, and instruction.
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.

SkillSpector: 13 findings, up to medium
These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

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 | $0.00106 | $0.04959 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00042 | $0.01984 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00021 | $0.00992 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00011 | $0.00496 |
Grade A, and why
gentle-ai-collab-perfect 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 20d 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 — 285 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
When to use
Use this skill when the active repo is Gentleman-Programming/gentle-ai and the contributor is an external collaborator (not the maintainer). Scope of the skill:
- Opening or commenting on issues
- Drafting, editing, or auditing PR bodies
- Choosing a chained-PR strategy (Stacked vs Feature Branch Chain)
- Cross-checking PR claims against the GitHub API
- Deciding whether an action is contributor-scope or maintainer-scope
Do NOT load this skill for:
- Using gentle-ai as an installer (Gentleman-Programming/gentle-ai is the installer itself; not this skill)
- Reading docs, debugging tests, or reviewing the codebase in general
- Tasks on a different repository
The skill assumes the contributor is working from wherever they push — a fork, a personal working repo, or anywhere they have write access. It deliberately does not assume a fork. Use it whether you push to ardelperal/gentle-ai, to a personal fork, or to a contributor org.
Source of truth — inspect the repo, don't infer
Before any target-host read, obtain explicit authorization for the remote destination (exact target), read operation and credential/session; never probe ambient credentials. Locally, before recommending any contribution action, inspect the relevant current source. The repo documents every constraint; pulling rules verbatim beats guessing.

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.

gentle-ai-collab-perfect is a skill published in the GitHub repository Gentleman-Programming/gentle-ai (8,012 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 106 tokens to every session and 4,959 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-08-30.
