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 | $0.00007 | $0.00628 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00251 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00001 | $0.00126 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00001 | $0.00063 |
Grade A, and why
refine 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 2mo 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 — 66 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Refine Existing Spec
Refine an existing specification based on new insights, feedback, or changing requirements.
Feature to refine: $ARGUMENTS
Instructions
-
Load the existing spec from
/specs/{feature}.md- If no spec exists for this feature, suggest using
/specinstead - If multiple specs match, ask the user which one to refine
- If no spec exists for this feature, suggest using
-
Ask 2-3 focused refinement questions (one at a time):
- What aspect needs refinement? (goals, criteria, approach, scope)
- What new information or feedback has emerged?
- Are there specific pain points with the current spec?
-
Check scope and modularity:
- Does the refinement keep the spec small enough for a single vertical slice?
- If criteria are being added, does the total still stay at ~5 or fewer?
- Does the refinement change which modules are affected? Update the "Affected Modules" section.
- If the refinement significantly expands scope or blast radius, suggest a separate spec instead.
-
Update the spec in place:
- Preserve front-matter: Keep all existing front-matter fields (title, description, author). Keep
status: proposed(refinements don't change status) - Preserve completed acceptance criteria checkboxes
- Update goals, criteria, or approach as needed
- Update "Affected Modules" and "Test Strategy" if the changes alter them
- Add to "Out of Scope" if removing features
- Add refinement notes to the "Notes" section with timestamp
- Preserve front-matter: Keep all existing front-matter fields (title, description, author). Keep
-
Show a diff summary:
- Highlight what changed (goals, new criteria, removed items, affected modules, etc.)
- Ask for confirmation before saving
-
Get user confirmation before proceeding to implementation
- If confirmed, use the implement skill with the refined spec
- If not, ask if they want to refine further
Refinement Guidelines
- Preserve progress: Don't uncheck completed criteria unless they're no longer valid
- Be additive when possible: Add new criteria rather than rewriting existing ones
- Document changes: Always add a timestamped note explaining what was refined and why
- Validate scope: Check if refinements are expanding scope significantly - if so, suggest a new spec
- Validate modularity: If the refinement introduces new module dependencies or widens the blast radius, flag it explicitly
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.

refine is a skill published in the GitHub repository heiko-braun/draft (5 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 7 tokens to every session and 628 once invoked, about $0.0000 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-08-31.
