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 5.1 | $0.00023 | $0.00938 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00012 | $0.00469 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00005 | $0.00188 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00094 |
Grade A, and why
haiku-autopilot 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 — 36 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Autopilot
Run the full H·AI·K·U lifecycle autonomously from description to delivery. Autopilot is one of the three intent modes (discrete | continuous | autopilot). It tells the workflow engine to promote ask review gates to auto, so the lifecycle advances without human intervention on stage gates. External gates and the intent-completion review still pause (structural signals the workflow engine can't synthesize).
Process
- If no active intent exists, create one with
/haiku:haiku-start, then set autopilot withhaiku_select_mode { intent: "<slug>", modes: ["autopilot"] }. Passing a single mode auto-selects it (no picker pause) and writesmode: autopilotplus the studio's full stage list. Do NOT passmodetohaiku_intent_create— studio/mode/stage are engine-managed and start unset. - For an existing intent, set the mode with
haiku_select_mode { intent: "<slug>", modes: ["autopilot"] }— a single-option list auto-selects with no picker pause and writesmode(+ stages) through the one engine-sanctioned path. Do NOT usehaiku_intent_set { field: "mode" }orhaiku_human_write—modeis an engine-managed field that both reject (intent_field_engine_only);haiku_select_modeis the ONLY mode setter. Do NOT set a separateautopilot: trueboolean — that is a deprecated pattern. (If the intent has already started a stage,select_moderefuses transitions into/out ofquick; surface that to the user.) - Optional: skip the final intent review by calling
haiku_intent_set { intent: "<slug>", field: "intent_completion_review", value: false }. Do NOT set this unless the user explicitly wants truly headless completion; the completion review is the bookend that prevents silent intent-completion on stage-gate pass. - Drive the loop by calling
haiku_run_next { intent: "<slug>" }. Repeat on every return. When a subagent returns, re-callhaiku_run_nextto advance.
What still pauses autopilot
- External gates (
externalor compound[external, ask]). They need a real PR/MR merge signal and cannot be auto-approved. awaitgates. Waiting for a non-review external event (customer response, pipeline, etc.).- Elicitation-required decisions. Design-direction picks, visual approvals.
- Scope explosions (see guardrails below).
- Intent-completion review (unless
intent_completion_review: falseis set on the intent).
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.

haiku-autopilot is a skill published in the GitHub repository gigsmart/haiku-method (24 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 23 tokens to every session and 938 once invoked, about $0.0001 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 2026-08-30.
