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 | $0.00078 | $0.04250 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00039 | $0.02125 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00016 | $0.00850 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00008 | $0.00425 |
Grade A, and why
article-polish 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.

Article Polish
这是混合型 Skill，默认仅在用户显式调用 $article-polish 时运行。
Three-mode writing improvement skill: quick for direct polishing, normal for analysis-informed improvement, refined for full publication-quality workflow with review and finalization.
User Input Tools
When this skill prompts the user, follow this tool-selection rule (priority order):
- Prefer built-in user-input tools exposed by the current agent runtime — e.g.,
AskUserQuestion,request_user_input,clarify,ask_user, or any equivalent. - Fallback: if no such tool exists, emit a numbered plain-text message and ask the user to reply with the chosen number/answer for each question.
- Batching: if the tool supports multiple questions per call, combine all applicable questions into a single call; if only single-question, ask them one at a time in priority order.
Concrete AskUserQuestion references below are examples — substitute the local equivalent in other runtimes.
Script Directory
Scripts in scripts/ subdirectory. {baseDir} = this SKILL.md's directory path. Resolve ${BUN_X} runtime: if bun installed → bun; if npx available → npx -y bun; else suggest installing bun. Replace {baseDir} and ${BUN_X} with actual values.
| Script | Purpose |
|---|---|
scripts/main.ts |
CLI entry point. Default action splits markdown into chunks; also supports explicit chunk subcommand |
scripts/chunk.ts |
Markdown chunking implementation used by main.ts and kept compatible for direct invocation |
Preferences (EXTEND.md)
Check EXTEND.md in priority order — the first one found wins:
| Priority | Path | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | .mason-skills/article-polish/EXTEND.md |
Project |
| 2 | ${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config}/mason-skills/article-polish/EXTEND.md |
XDG |
| 3 | $HOME/.mason-skills/article-polish/EXTEND.md |
User home |
| Result | Action |
|---|---|
| Found | Read, parse, apply. On first use in session, briefly remind: "Using preferences from [path]. You can edit EXTEND.md to customize style, audience, etc." |
| Not found | MUST run first-time setup (see below) — do NOT silently use defaults |

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.

article-polish is a skill published in the GitHub repository hxy91819/mason-skills (2 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 78 tokens to every session and 4,250 once invoked, about $0.0004 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 2026-08-31.
