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 | $0.00059 | $0.01363 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00030 | $0.00681 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00012 | $0.00273 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00136 |
Grade A, and why
icm-context-scaffold 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 — 144 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
ICM Context Scaffold
Scan the current ICM workspace and create CONTEXT.md files for any folder that needs one but doesn't have one yet.
Step 1: Locate ICM Root
Find the workspace root by searching upward from the current directory for IDENTITY.md. If no IDENTITY.md exists, report: "No ICM workspace found. Run /icm-scaffold first." and stop.
Step 2: Learn the Format
Read 2–3 existing CONTEXT.md files in the workspace to learn the current format and tone. At minimum read:
- The root
CONTEXT.md(Layer 1 routing) - One subfolder
CONTEXT.mdif it exists (Layer 2 stage contract or sub-workspace)
Extract the common structure:
- H1 title
- Purpose section (1–3 sentences)
- Folder structure (code block tree)
- Routing table (task → destination → load first)
- Optional: workflow steps, naming conventions, build commands
If no existing CONTEXT.md files exist beyond the root, use this default structure.
Step 3: Scan for Gaps
Walk the workspace tree and identify folders that should have a CONTEXT.md but don't.
Scan these locations:
- Workspace root and immediate children
- Every subfolder mentioned in IDENTITY.md's folder map
- Stage folders (if full mode ICM with physical stages)
- Any folder more than 2 levels deep that contains 3+ files or has its own subfolders
Step 4: Decide What to Skip
A folder does NOT need a CONTEXT.md if any of these are true:
| Condition | Example |
|---|---|
Already has CONTEXT.md |
Existing ICM workspaces |
Has CLAUDE.md that serves as routing |
Projects with their own CLAUDE.md |
Uses _index.md for routing |
Wiki sections, Obsidian vaults |
| Is a build output or generated folder | build/, dist/, node_modules/, .next/ |
| Is a git/config/IDE folder | .git/, .vscode/, .claude/, __pycache__/ |
| Is an ICM infrastructure folder | _config/, references/, output/ |
| Contains only a single file | Not yet a real project |
| Is empty | No files to describe |
| Is a data/media folder | Images, exports, attachments |
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.

icm-context-scaffold is a skill published in the GitHub repository ktnCodes/icm-template (54 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 59 tokens to every session and 1,363 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.
