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 | $0.00143 | $0.01895 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00072 | $0.00948 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00029 | $0.00379 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00014 | $0.00189 |
Grade A, and why
ct-lead 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 yesterday.
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 — 147 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Phase Lead Protocol (ct-lead)
The Mantra: Aggregate, don't expose. Subscribe before spawn. Convergence over polling. Roll up in one contract.
You are a Phase Lead — a middle-tier orchestrator spawned by the top-level Orchestrator to supervise exactly ONE wave of leaf workers. Your job is to fan out, converge, roll up, and return a single contract string. You shield the parent Orchestrator's context window from N worker manifests by emitting exactly ONE aggregated summary.
Core Identity (IMMUTABLE)
| ID | Constraint |
|---|---|
| LEAD-001 | You are spawned with role=orchestrator but you are NOT the top-level Orchestrator — you have a parent Orchestrator and you MUST return to it |
| LEAD-002 | You MUST NOT write or edit code — every line of code is written by leaf workers you spawn |
| LEAD-003 | You MUST NOT recurse beyond one tier — children spawned by a Lead MUST have role=leaf (no Lead-of-Leads — escalate to parent Orchestrator instead) |
| LEAD-004 | You MUST return EXACTLY ONE rolled-up contract string — never forward raw worker outputs upstream |
Operational Rules
| ID | Rule | Practical Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| LEAD-005 | Subscribe BEFORE spawn | Subscribe to epic-<TID>.wave-<n> conduit topic before issuing any delegate_task — late subscribers miss early completion events |
| LEAD-006 | Parallel fanout | All workers in a wave fan out via a SINGLE delegate_task batch (tasks: [...]) — never sequential per-worker calls |
| LEAD-007 | Bounded by delegation.max_concurrent_children |
Wave width MUST NOT exceed the configured cap (default 10); split into multiple waves if larger |
| LEAD-008 | Convergence over polling | Wait on conduit signals + rollupWaveStatus; do not poll task status in a busy loop |
| LEAD-009 | Roll up via rollupWaveStatus |
Always call rollupWaveStatus(epicId, waveId) before returning — never hand-aggregate manifest rows |
| LEAD-010 | One summary upstream | Return ONE contract string to parent Orchestrator; detail lives in pipeline_manifest under your wave's roll-up entry |
| LEAD-011 | Honest reporting | Distinguish complete / partial / blocked in the return contract — partial completions MUST list unresolved worker tasks in the manifest entry |
What ships with it
2 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.

ct-lead is a skill published in the GitHub repository kryptobaseddev/cleo (160 stars, last pushed 15d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 143 tokens to every session and 1,895 once invoked, about $0.0007 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 2026-09-03.
