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 | $0.00050 | $0.05005 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00025 | $0.02502 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00010 | $0.01001 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00500 |
Grade A, and why
race-condition 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 5d 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.
This is a copy
100% identical to race-condition — 0 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

SKILL: Race Conditions — Testing & Exploitation Playbook
AI LOAD INSTRUCTION: Treat race conditions as authorization/state integrity issues: non-atomic read-then-write lets multiple requests observe stale state. Prioritize one-time or balance-like operations. Combine parallel transport (HTTP/1.1 last-byte sync, HTTP/2 single-packet, Turbo Intruder gates) with application evidence (duplicate success responses, inconsistent balances, duplicate ledger rows). Authorized testing only. Routing note: for business workflows, coupons, inventory, or one-time rewards, start with this skill and cross-load
business-logic-vulnerabilities.
0. QUICK START — What to Test First
Target endpoints where check and update are unlikely to be a single atomic database operation:
| Priority | Operation class | Example paths / parameters |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | One-time redeem / coupon / bonus | redeem, apply_coupon, claim_reward, voucher |
| 2 | Balance / quota / stock deduction | transfer, purchase, reserve, inventory |
| 3 | Invite / referral / signup bonus | invite_accept, referral_claim |
| 4 | Password / email / MFA verification | verify_token, confirm_email, reset_password |
| 5 | Idempotent-looking APIs without strong keys | POST that should succeed only once per user |
First moves (conceptual):
- Capture the state-changing request in a proxy.
- Send 20–100 copies as simultaneously as your tooling allows.
- Classify outcome: 0/1 expected successes vs N successes or inconsistent final state.

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.

race-condition is a skill published in the GitHub repository JustineDevs/premortem (2 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 50 tokens to every session and 5,005 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 100% identical to race-condition, differing in 0 lines, and is treated as a copy.

caliber-testing
Writes Vitest tests following project patterns: tests/ directories, vi.mock() for module mocking with vi.hoisted() for test-time factories, global LLM mock from src/test/setup.ts, environment variable save/restore in beforeEach/afterEach, vi.clearAllMocks() lifecycle, and test file organization.

Set up testing and debug common issues in Agent Kernel projects. This skill guides you through configuring the built-in test framework, writing agent tests, choosing test modes (score, llm, fallback), and troubleshooting common errors.
slowest-tests
Find the top-N slowest test files in CI from a recent BuildKite run, optionally posting the results to a Slack channel as a formatted table. Use when asked to find slow CI tests, "what's making CI slow", or to post a slow-test report to Slack.
testing-strategy
A testing guide that explains how to combine unit, integration, contract, and end-to-end tests. End-to-end tests check complete user flows, while integration tests check components working together.
