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.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00136 | $0.03307 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00068 | $0.01654 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00027 | $0.00661 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00014 | $0.00331 |
Grade A, and why
frame-a-proposal 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 8d 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 — 223 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Frame a proposal — turn a problem into a reviewable RFC
The platform /open-knowledge skill still governs every markdown operation here (reads via exec/search, writes via write/edit, links as plain relative markdown, never native Read/Edit/Grep/cat on in-scope files). This skill layers proposal-authoring craft on top: it decides what a good proposal contains and in what order you earn each section.
A proposal in proposals/ is a design argument, not a decision and not a plan. It exists to force a choice among options and to give reviewers enough to disagree with. Filename is 0001-feature-name.md — a zero-padded 4-digit sequence plus a kebab title. Status flows draft → fcp → accepted/rejected (fcp = final comment period). Acceptance graduates the proposal to a record in decisions/ — that is a separate, human act and a separate skill.
The failure this skill exists to prevent: an agent jumping to ## Design before anyone agrees what the problem is, padding ## Alternatives with strawmen, and leaving ## Drawbacks empty. Each step below has a gate that blocks that.
Mandatory execution order
Hard gates — do NOT skip ahead. If you are about to draft ## Design and you have not passed the Step 1 framing gate, STOP — you skipped a gate. The whole point of a proposal is that the problem is agreed before the solution is written.
- Scan prior art — what already exists on this subsystem, in
proposals/anddecisions/. - Frame the problem — STOP gate. Name beneficiary, observable change, forced decision. Get confirmation before any solution text.
- Allocate the sequence number and create from the
proposaltemplate. - Motivation — problem, evidence, who is hurt today, cost of doing nothing, and explicit non-goals.
- Design — the proposal at an altitude a reader can disagree with.
- Alternatives — at least two real ones, each with why-not.
- Drawbacks — the honest cost.
- Unresolved questions — a live backlog, each with a resolver and resolving evidence.
- Link + validate.
- Recap + what advancing to
fcpwould require.
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.

frame-a-proposal is a skill published in the GitHub repository inkeep/open-knowledge-skills (8 stars, last pushed 5d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 136 tokens to every session and 3,307 once invoked, about $0.0007 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.
