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 | $0.00783 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00313 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00157 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00078 |
Grade A, and why
thinking-patterns 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 1mo 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 — 94 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Thinking Patterns Skill
Longitudinal cognitive pattern analysis across months of recorded conversations. Extracts evidence-based dimensions from Fathom transcripts, synthesizes cross-session patterns, and detects blind spots you can't see yourself.
Usage
/thinking-patterns # full analysis, default period (3 months)
/thinking-patterns --dry-run # corpus stats + batch plan only
/thinking-patterns --period 2026-01 2026-02 # custom date range
What it does
- Discovers all Fathom transcripts in date range, classifies by type (coaching, meeting, lab, etc.)
- Extracts Gleb's speech lines from each transcript
- Analyzes 12 evidence-based cognitive dimensions per transcript (parallel sonnet agents)
- Synthesizes cross-session patterns across 10 analysis sections (parallel sonnet agents)
- Detects contradictions, competing commitments, and blind spots
- Produces single analysis document with dated evidence quotes
12 Extraction Dimensions
| Dimension | Framework |
|---|---|
| Cognitive distortions | Burns' 10 categories |
| Problem framing | Discourse analysis |
| Conceptual metaphors | Lakoff & Johnson / MIPVU |
| Hedging & certainty | Epistemic marker taxonomy |
| Code-switching | Bilingual cognition research |
| Decision moments | GDMS + behavioral markers |
| Emotional indicators | Russell's Circumplex + ACT |
| Avoidance & deflection | ACT experiential avoidance |
| Agency language | Narrative Identity Theory |
| Competing commitments | Immunity to Change (Kegan) |
| Role/register markers | Sociolinguistic analysis |
| Energy signals | Engagement markers |
10 Output Sections
- Recurring Narratives
- Problem Framing Patterns
- Metaphors & Unconscious Language
- Decision Heuristics
- Topics Avoided
- Contradictions & Competing Commitments
- Energy Patterns
- Role Shifts
- Execution Gap (stated priorities vs actual focus)
- Cognitive Distortions & Biases

What ships with it
7 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
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.

thinking-patterns is a skill published in the GitHub repository glebis/claude-skills (393 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 783 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.
