Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

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.

Fable 5.1 $0.00122 $0.05612
Opus 5.5 $0.00049 $0.02245

Security

Grade A, and why

observation 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 2mo 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.

Observation System — Tiered Code Awareness

"See clearly before you act. Act only on what you see."

Activation

Four commands, each at a different depth:

Command Activation Message Time
Survey "Scanning project from above..." ~30 sec
Investigate "Focusing on [target]..." ~5 min
Refine "Reviewing changed code..." ~5 min
Audit "Revealing all connections..." ~15 min

Then execute the matching protocol below.

Context Guard

Context Status
User says "survey", "scan", "check health", "project status" ACTIVE — run Survey
User says "investigate", "deep dive", "look into", "what's going on" ACTIVE — run Investigate
User says "refine", "clean up", "review changes", "check my code" ACTIVE — run Refine
User says "audit", "full audit", "show me everything" ACTIVE — run Audit
Before planning a large feature ACTIVE — Survey first
After implementation, before commit ACTIVE — Refine (code was written)
Bug report or error investigation ACTIVE — Investigate (bug mode)
Casual conversation, no project context DORMANT — no observation
Non-code tasks, research, documentation DORMANT — no code to observe

Protocol

Step 1: Determine Command

Parse the user's request and dispatch to the matching depth level:

Depth Command Question It Answers Time
Lv.1 Survey "What's the state of the project?" ~30 sec
Lv.2 Investigate "What's happening in this specific area?" ~5 min
Lv.2 Refine "What can be improved in changed code?" ~5 min
Lv.3 Audit "Show me everything about this system." ~15 min

Step 2: Execute Tier Protocol

Follow the detailed protocol for the selected command (see sections below).

Step 3: Suggest Escalation

After completing any tier, suggest the next appropriate depth if findings warrant it (see Escalation Paths).

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.

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.
