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 | $0.00022 | $0.02693 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00011 | $0.01347 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00004 | $0.00539 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00269 |
Grade A, and why
ask-matt 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 12d 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.
This is a copy
100% identical to ask-matt — 60 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 91 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Ask Matt
You don't remember every skill, so ask.
A flow is a path through the skills. Most paths run along one main flow, and two on-ramps merge onto it. Everything else is standalone, or a vocabulary layer that runs underneath.
The main flow: idea → ship
The route most work travels. You have an idea and want it built.
-
grill-with-docssharpens the idea by interview. Start here whenever you are working in a working directory: it's stateful, retaining what it learns inCONTEXT.mdand ADRs. (No working directory? Usegrill-meinstead, covered under Standalone. Both run the samegrillingprimitive;grill-with-docsis the one that leaves a paper trail, which makes it the better of the two whenever a repo is there to leave it in.) -
Branch: can you settle every question in conversation? If a question needs a runnable answer (state, business logic, a UI you have to see), detour through a prototype, bridged by
handoffin both directions (a prototype lives in its own directory, which is exactly whathandoffis for; see Phase boundaries):handoffout, then open a fresh session against that file,prototypeto answer the question with throwaway code,handoffback what you learned, and reference it from the original idea thread.

Branch: is this a multi-session build?
- Yes →
to-spec(turn the thread into a spec), thento-ticketsto split it into tracer-bullet tickets, each declaring its blocking edges. On a local tracker that's one file per ticket under.scratch/<feature>/issues/, worked blockers-first by hand; on a real tracker the edges become native blocking links, so any ticket whose blockers are done can be grabbed: kick offimplementper ticket,/clearing context between each one. Each ticket is self-contained, so the last one's context is disposable. - No →
implementright here, in the same context window.
Either way,
implementbuilds each issue by drivingtddinternally (one red-green slice at a time), then closes out by runningcode-review, a two-axis review (Standards + Spec) of the diff, before committing. Reach fortddon its own when you just want to build a concrete behaviour test-first without a full spec, andcode-reviewon its own whenever you want to review a branch or PR against a fixed point. - Yes →
What ships with it
1 file 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.

ask-matt is a skill published in the GitHub repository gongyijie85/mattpocock-skills-dsh (13 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 22 tokens to every session and 2,693 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 100% identical to ask-matt, differing in 60 lines, and is treated as a copy.
