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 | $0.00062 | $0.01661 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00031 | $0.00830 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00012 | $0.00332 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00166 |
Grade A, and why
simpo-training 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.
This is a copy
88% identical to simpo — 10 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

SimPO - Simple Preference Optimization
Quick start
SimPO is a reference-free preference optimization method that outperforms DPO without needing a reference model.
Installation:
# Create environment
conda create -n simpo python=3.10 && conda activate simpo
# Install PyTorch 2.2.2
# Visit: https://pytorch.org/get-started/locally/
# Install alignment-handbook
git clone https://github.com/huggingface/alignment-handbook.git
cd alignment-handbook
python -m pip install .
# Install Flash Attention 2
python -m pip install flash-attn --no-build-isolation

What ships with it
3 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.

simpo-training is a skill published in the GitHub repository liortesta/ClawdAgent (11 stars, last pushed 8d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 62 tokens to every session and 1,661 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 88% identical to simpo, differing in 10 lines, and is treated as a copy.
