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 | $0.00061 | $0.00813 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00030 | $0.00407 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00012 | $0.00163 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00081 |
Grade A, and why
spec-mode 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 8d 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 — 87 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Spec Mode
Use this skill when the task is about:
- specifications
- requirements
- design docs
- team task lists
- decomposition of work into independent zones
.spec/<slug>/TASK.md,Requirements.md,Design.md
Workflow
- Start from discovery first if the user is still understanding the project.
- If the user asks things like:
- how to improve the dashboard
- how to improve Telegram Web logic
- what problems exist
- what to fix first
then do analysis first and do not create
.spec/yet.
- Only create spec files after the user explicitly asks to:
- make a spec
- formalize the plan
- create requirements/design/tasks
- Once the user asks for a spec:
- treat each top-level workstream as an independent spec pack
- store it in
.spec/<slug>/ - use
TASK.md,Requirements.md,Design.md
- If you need scaffolding, use:
scripts/init_spec_pack.sh
What to load

Important
- Keep
SKILL.mdlean; read references only as needed. - Use two phases:
- Phase 0: discovery and improvement analysis
- Phase 1: spec formalization
- Always preserve traceability:
Task -> Requirements -> Design
- For subtask traceability use:
_Requirements: 1.1, 2.3_
- Every top-level task in
TASK.mdmust have its own responsibility block:owner
- For every top-level task, the responsible side must be chosen explicitly.
- Keep it simple:
- one task -> one explicit responsibility block
- all subtasks under that task belong to the same responsibility block by default
ownermay be:- one person
- one AI model
- one named executor group if the team uses group ownership
ownermay also contain several explicit executors if the owner of the plan wants shared execution.- The number of executors is not tied to the number of tasks.
- Three executors may split tasks evenly, unevenly, or one executor may take several tasks while others take fewer.
- The workload split is defined by the plan owner, not by the template.
- Different tasks may have different owners.
- The same owner may also appear in many tasks.
- If the user explicitly asks for split execution with several executors or agents, spawn separate independent agents for those top-level tasks during execution when the toolset allows it.
- Keep the split aligned with the chosen
ownerblocks inTASK.md. - In split execution there is also a coordinating reviewer/integrator role.
- This reviewer does not have to be fixed in
TASK.md. - The important part is that this role exists.
- The reviewer waits until the executors finish, then:
- collects results from all agents
- checks whether changes conflict
- integrates everything together
- updates the single shared
TASK.md - runs final verification
- closes the spec by fact, not by assumption
- Reuse templates from:
templates/TASK.template.mdtemplates/Requirements.template.mdtemplates/Design.template.md
What ships with it
8 files 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.

spec-mode is a skill published in the GitHub repository kissrosecicd-hub/agents-evolution (31 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 61 tokens to every session and 813 once invoked, about $0.0003 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.
