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 | $0.00025 | $0.00285 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00013 | $0.00143 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00005 | $0.00057 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00028 |
Grade A, and why
escalate 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.
What it actually says
Format an escalation for the following situation: $ARGUMENTS
Use this structure (based on the EscalationToChiefAgentic schema):
Escalation Type: [prioritization_decision | scope_change | external_dependency_failure | timeline_impact | irreversible_action_approval | budget_exceeded | repeated_failure | shippability_assessment]
Situation
- Summary: [What happened, 1-2 sentences]
- Impact: [What this means for the current plan]
- Root cause: [Why this happened, if known]
- What has been tried: [What the system already attempted]
Options (minimum 2):
| Option | Description | Tradeoff | Time | Risk |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| A: [label] | [what it entails] | [gain vs. lose] | [estimate] | low/medium/high |
| B: [label] | [what it entails] | [gain vs. lose] | [estimate] | low/medium/high |
Recommendation: [Which option and why, if applicable]
Decision deadline: [How long before this blocks progress]
What ships with it
1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
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.

escalate is a skill published in the GitHub repository Kastalien-Research/thoughtbox (64 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 25 tokens to every session and 285 once invoked, about $0.0001 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 2026-08-30.
