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 | $0.00104 | $0.04224 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00052 | $0.02112 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00021 | $0.00845 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00010 | $0.00422 |
Grade A, and why
pre-mortem 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 7d 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.

Pre-Mortem
Imagine your project has failed spectacularly—then work backward to identify why. Apply Gary Klein's "prospective hindsight" technique to catch failures before they happen.
When to Use This Skill
- Before launching a product, campaign, or major initiative
- Before making an important decision (hiring, investment, partnership)
- Starting a project to identify risks the team hasn't considered
- When overconfident and everyone agrees the plan is great
- Before committing resources to a significant undertaking
- In team planning to surface concerns people might hesitate to share
Methodology Foundation
| Aspect | Details |
|---|---|
| Source | Gary Klein (1989), cognitive psychologist, naturalistic decision making pioneer |
| Expert | Klein's research shows pre-mortems increase accuracy of identifying reasons for outcomes by 30% |
| Core Principle | "Prospective hindsight" - imagining an event has already occurred dramatically improves our ability to explain it. The future feels distant; the past feels real. |
What Claude Does vs What You Decide
| Claude Does | You Decide |
|---|---|
| Structures production workflow | Final creative direction |
| Suggests technical approaches | Equipment and tool choices |
| Creates templates and checklists | Quality standards |
| Identifies best practices | Brand/voice decisions |
| Generates script outlines | Final script approval |
What This Skill Does
- Surfaces hidden risks - Finds dangers invisible to forward-looking planning
- Gives permission to criticize - Team members can voice concerns safely
- Reduces overconfidence - Counters planning fallacy and optimism bias
- Improves plans before execution - Fix problems when they're cheap to fix
- Creates psychological safety - "We're imagining failure" feels safer than "I think this will fail"

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.

pre-mortem is a skill published in the GitHub repository guia-matthieu/clawfu-skills (149 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 104 tokens to every session and 4,224 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings.
