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 | $0.00109 | $0.02579 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00055 | $0.01290 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00022 | $0.00516 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00011 | $0.00258 |
Grade A, and why
fix-bug 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 2d 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 — 239 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Bug Fix Workflow
Disambiguating fix-bug vs modify-feature
Use this skill when: the code should do X but does Y — you want to restore correct behavior. Use modify-feature when: the code does X correctly — you want it to do Z instead (desired behavior changed).
Quick test: "Did this ever work correctly, or was it always intended to work differently?" → Yes, it used to work / should work → fix-bug (continue here). → No, the requirement itself is changing → stop. Tell the user: "This looks like a behavior change rather than a bug fix — the modify-feature workflow is a better fit. You can say something like 'refactor/change how X works' to trigger the right workflow, or tell me to proceed anyway and I'll apply baseline rules only." Do not proceed unless the user explicitly says to proceed.
Edge case: A feature never implemented but expected is a bug only if it was promised in an interface contract; otherwise stop and direct the user to
sextant:add-feature.
Core Principle
When fixing bugs, make surgical modifications to the existing solution — do not start over with a rewrite.
Complete Execution Workflow
Progress tracking: At the start of each step, output an updated progress block so the user always knows where you are. Use this format:
Bug Fix Progress ✓ Step 1: Reproduce & Locate — <one-line finding> ✓ Step 2: Impact Assessment — Risk: <Low/Medium/High> → Step 3: Minimal-Change Fix — in progress ○ Step 4: Boundary ValidationReplace
○with→for the current step, and✓once complete.
Step 1: Reproduce and Locate the Root Cause
Before making any changes, confirm:
- What is the specific manifestation of the bug? (Error message, abnormal behavior, data anomaly)
- What are the trigger conditions? (Specific input, timing, environment)
- Where is the root cause? (Don't fix the symptom — find the source)
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.

fix-bug is a skill published in the GitHub repository hellotern/Sextant (15 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 109 tokens to every session and 2,579 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 2026-08-30.
