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 | $0.00041 | $0.01342 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00016 | $0.00537 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00008 | $0.00268 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00134 |
Grade C, and why
hive-project-setup scanned grade C with 1 finding 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 1mo 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.

rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

Hive Project Setup
This skill covers workspace bootstrap, project creation, task management, and evaluator configuration.
Bootstrap a New Workspace
Full onboarding (recommended)
hive onboard <project-slug> --json
This creates:
.hive/substrate directory with cache and task storageprojects/<slug>/AGENCY.md— narrative project documentprojects/<slug>/PROGRAM.md— execution policy with forgiving defaults- 3–5 starter tasks with dependency chains
local-smokeevaluator template- Workspace checkpoint commit
Default PROGRAM.md uses forgiving settings so the first hive finish succeeds cleanly:
auto_close_task: trueallow_accept_without_changes: true
Tighten these for production use.
Minimal init
hive init --json
Creates the .hive/ layout only. No starter project or tasks.
Adopt an existing repo
hive adopt <project-slug> --json
Wraps existing v1 state and enables v2 features incrementally.
Migrate from v1
hive migrate v1-to-v2 --dry-run --json # preview
hive migrate v1-to-v2 --project <id> --json # execute
Create and Manage Projects
hive project create <slug> --title "Project title" --json
hive project list --json
hive project show <project-id> --json
hive project sync --json
Each project gets:
projects/<slug>/AGENCY.md— write narrative context here (objective, notes, recommended flow)projects/<slug>/PROGRAM.md— define execution policy here
Create and Manage Tasks
Task CRUD
hive task create --project-id <id> --title "Task title" --json
hive task create --project-id <id> --title "..." --status ready --json
hive task list --project-id <id> --json
hive task list --status ready --status review --json
hive task show <task-id> --json
hive task update <task-id> --status in_progress --priority 1 --json
hive task update <task-id> --title "New title" --label "bug" --json
Task status flow
proposed → ready → claimed → in_progress → review → done
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.

hive-project-setup is a skill published in the GitHub repository intertwine/hive-orchestrator (22 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 41 tokens to every session and 1,342 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it C with 1 finding (recursive force delete).
