What it costs to keep this loaded

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

s4h-decision 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.

Decision

Applies structured decision thinking to any choice. Diagnoses what kind of decision work is needed and applies the right tool.

Which tool fits

You need to... Tool
Make sure you're seeing all the real options option-mapping
Compare options against weighted criteria criteria-weighting
Stress-test a decision by imagining it failed premortem-analysis
Calibrate how much process this decision deserves reversibility-analysis

Routing Decision

Framing check: Confirm the decision and its intended outcome before routing. State what you've identified — the actual choice being faced and what the user is trying to achieve — in one sentence, then use AskUserQuestion:

  • Question: "I'm reading this as: [your one-sentence framing of the specific decision and its intended outcome]. Is that right?"

  • Header: "Framing"

  • Options:

    • Yes — proceed — framing is correct
    • Adjust — one element is off; user will correct it before you continue
    • Reframe — different situation than read; incorporate the correction before proceeding
  • About to decide between 2 options — may be missing others → option-mapping first

  • Options are visible, need to compare them systematically → criteria-weighting

  • Leaning toward a direction, want to stress-test it → premortem-analysis

  • Unsure how much time to spend on this decision → reversibility-analysis

  • Unclear → option-mapping; the option space is almost always narrower than it should be

Confirm Direction

After diagnosing which tool fits, use the AskUserQuestion tool to confirm direction. Construct the question dynamically to include your diagnosis:

  • Question: "My read: [diagnosed tool] — [one sentence on why it fits]. How would you like to proceed?"
  • Header: "Direction"
  • Options:
    • Yes, run that tool — Execute the diagnosed skill immediately using the context already provided
    • Show all options — List every skill in this category with one-line descriptions
    • Quick version — Run a lighter-weight alternative if one exists for this situation
    • Re-diagnose — Revisit the situation description for a different read

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.
