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 | $0.00093 | $0.04813 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00046 | $0.02406 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00019 | $0.00963 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00481 |
Grade A, and why
problem-interview 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 — 637 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Problem Interview
Validate that the problem you want to solve is real, painful, and worth solving before building anything. Master Cindy Alvarez's structured approach to problem discovery interviews.
When to Use This Skill
- Before solution interviews to confirm the problem exists
- Early customer discovery to understand the problem space
- Pivoting to find new problems worth solving
- Market expansion to understand problems in new segments
- Feature prioritization to validate which problems matter most
- Hypothesis testing to validate or invalidate problem assumptions
Methodology Foundation
| Aspect | Details |
|---|---|
| Source | Cindy Alvarez - "Lean Customer Development" (2014) |
| Core Principle | "Problem interviews help you understand the problem space before committing to a solution. You're not pitching—you're learning." |
| Why This Matters | Most startups fail because they solve problems people don't care enough about. Problem interviews prevent building solutions to non-problems. |
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
- Structures problem exploration - Systematic approach to understanding pain points
- Identifies problem severity - Distinguishes "nice to have" from "must solve"
- Discovers existing solutions - Understands what people do today
- Validates problem frequency - How often does this problem occur?
- Finds problem context - When and where does the problem happen?
- Generates solution hints - What would ideal look like?
How to Use
Prepare Problem Interview Script
I want to validate this problem hypothesis: [problem statement]
Target customer: [who]
Create a problem interview script with open-ended questions.
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.

problem-interview is a skill published in the GitHub repository guia-matthieu/clawfu-skills (149 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 93 tokens to every session and 4,813 once invoked, about $0.0005 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 2026-09-03.
