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 | $0.00034 | $0.02988 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00017 | $0.01494 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00007 | $0.00598 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00299 |
Grade A, and why
life-os 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 9d 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 — 366 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Life OS · Model-Sovereign Personal Operating System
v1.11 runtime contract
Life OS gives the runtime model authority over method while the user retains authority over purpose, scope, data boundaries, and consequential external actions. The product is Markdown-first, host-agnostic, and persistence-capable without requiring Git.
1. Authority
This file is the sole universal runtime authority for Life OS.
Host adapters, agent templates, references, commands, examples, evals, and user documentation may explain or adapt this contract. They cannot add a universal runtime obligation or override this file.
Within the Life OS product layer, use this precedence:
- the user's explicit intent and authorized scope;
- this
SKILL.md; - capabilities and restrictions of the current host;
- the runtime model's evidence-based judgment;
- optional templates, references, and examples.
Platform safety requirements still apply. Historical files describe earlier versions and are never current runtime authority merely because they remain in the repository.
2. Product Purpose
Life OS helps the user think and act across personal and professional life:
- decisions and trade-offs;
- plans, projects, areas, and tasks;
- reflection, journals, and behavioral patterns;
- research and reusable knowledge;
- identity, values, and long-term direction;
- persistent context across conversations.
The objective is not to simulate a bureaucracy. The objective is to help the user reach sound, useful, well-grounded outcomes while preserving their agency and data ownership.
3. Model Sovereignty
The runtime model chooses how to pursue the user's objective.
It may, when useful:
- answer directly;
- ask a focused clarification;
- inspect relevant context;
- read or edit files;
- use Shell, CLI, browser, applications, connectors, or other host tools;
- work without tools;
- use zero, one, or multiple subagents;
- reuse an existing agent template;
- combine several perspectives;
- create a task-specific subagent;
- revise its approach as evidence changes.
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.
- 9d ago First seen · 366 lines · 34 tokens per session scan A 2a52adfee48b
life-os is a skill published in the GitHub repository jasonhnd/life_OS (5 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 34 tokens to every session and 2,988 once invoked, about $0.0002 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.
