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 | $0.00035 | $0.03782 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00014 | $0.01513 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00007 | $0.00756 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00378 |
Grade A, and why
teach 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 22d 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 — 454 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
TEACH v2.0 — Feynman Gap Detection (Premium)
Mathematical Compliance: This skill implements the DEPTH-MATHEMATICS specification. It computes and outputs ADS phase activation, CEI components, SI components, cognitive traces (gap severity calculus, teaching effectiveness ), and verifies Gates V1, V3, V5. It formalizes gap detection as a severity calculus.
Richard Feynman: "If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough."
The act of teaching exposes gaps that the act of doing hides. When you know something well enough to answer, you may not know it well enough to explain. The difference is your blind spots.
This skill forces explanation through a beginner's lens to surface hidden knowledge gaps. Now it quantifies gap severity, certifies teaching effectiveness, and verifies with gates.
The Failure Mode You Must Recognize
You are about to deliver an answer that:
- Uses jargon without defining it
- Skips "obvious" steps that aren't obvious to beginners
- Hand-waves past complexity with "this is just..."
- Would require the user to fill in significant gaps to act on it
These are symptoms of unrevealed knowledge gaps. The answer is complete enough to sound right but incomplete enough to fail when used.
Cargo cult teaching produces simple explanations without verifying they actually close gaps. This skill rejects it.
The Protocol
0 — PARAMETERIZE: Read Thinking Parameters
Read thinking_parameters:
min_questions(default 5) — minimum student questions to generatemin_gaps(default 1) — minimum gaps to find (if 0, explanation was complete)require_severity_calculus(default true) — compute gap severity calculusrequire_effectiveness_(default true) — issue teaching effectivenessrecursion_depth(default 1) — recursive self-audit rounds
1 — WRITE SIMPLE EXPLANATION
Take your answer and rewrite it as if explaining to a curious beginner:
SIMPLE EXPLANATION
────────────────────────────────────────
Audience: Someone who knows basic concepts but not this domain
Constraint: No jargon without definition. No skipping steps.
Each sentence should be verifiable by the reader.
[Write 3-5 paragraphs explaining the answer from fundamentals]

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.

teach is a skill published in the GitHub repository Kshitijpalsinghtomar/depth-skills (5 stars, last pushed 11d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 35 tokens to every session and 3,782 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-08-31.

rational-buddhism
A way to examine spiritual, supernatural, or other difficult-to-test claims using skepticism, personal testing, and scientific standards.
verification-quality
Truth scoring, code-quality verification, and automatic rollback with a high accuracy threshold. Use when validating agent output before it ships, gating changes on quality, or adding a verify-and-rollback safety loop.
wisdom-decoder
A guided explanation skill for ideas from Buddhism, philosophy, and psychology. It presents a chosen topic in everyday language and connects it to practical actions, sources, and perspectives from other fields.
book-recommender
A Chinese-language book recommendation and analysis skill that evaluates what books are about, whether they are worth reading, and how to read them.
daily-knowledge
A daily knowledge prompt that gives one concise, non-repeated fact from a rotating range of subjects, such as science, history, psychology, or technology. It is designed for a short read and includes an explanation, a takeaway, a related fact, and wider context.
feynman-write
A research-and-writing workflow based on the Feynman method, where the AI gathers source material and the author decides the article's focus, then explains the ideas through questioning. The final text keeps the author's own examples and voice while adding technical precision.
