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 | $0.00052 | $0.02118 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00026 | $0.01059 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00010 | $0.00424 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00212 |
Grade A, and why
apply-situational-leadership 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 — 115 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Apply Situational Leadership
Diagnose a direct report's development level on a specific task, then match your management style — directing, coaching, supporting, or delegating — to that level.
Why This Is Best Practice
Adopted by: Blanchard's Situational Leadership II model is licensed to 70%+ of Fortune 500 companies including IBM, Bank of America, Pfizer, and Lockheed Martin; the model is the foundation of manager training at the US Military's leadership development programs (Officer Candidate School, West Point's leadership curriculum); it has trained 15M+ managers globally across 50+ years of organizational application Impact: Blanchard Institute longitudinal studies (Organizations of Learning, 2018) show managers who apply matched leadership style see 17% lower turnover and 21% higher productivity compared to managers who apply a uniform style; the model directly explains the two most common and costly management failure modes: (1) over-directing high performers who then disengage and quit, and (2) under-supporting developing employees who fail tasks they were not yet ready for and lose confidence Why best: Trait-based leadership advice ("be more empathetic", "be decisive") provides no actionable guidance for a specific situation with a specific person on a specific task; the blanket "give people autonomy" advice fails catastrophically for D1 employees (enthusiastic beginners) who need structure; SLII gives a diagnostic framework that maps directly to a prescribed style per task per person, producing consistent outcomes rather than manager intuition

Steps
1. Define the task specifically
Situational Leadership applies per task, not to a person's overall performance. A senior engineer (D4 on backend architecture) may be an enthusiastic beginner (D1) when promoted to engineering manager for the first time.
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.
