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 | $0.00077 | $0.01658 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00031 | $0.00663 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00015 | $0.00332 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00008 | $0.00166 |
Grade A, and why
develop-like-oxide 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.

Core principle
Write it down. "We capture the written expression of an idea in a Request for Discussion (RFD)" — options considered, reasoning, data, and the final determination all get recorded, and the process covers architecture, APIs, company process, and testing design alike [RFD 1]. Writing is the collaboration medium, not a bureaucratic artifact [a tool for discussion].
Principles
- Write decisions down — options, reasoning, and determination, in a versioned record [RFD 1]
- Rigor with urgency — thoroughness that ships beats analysis that stalls [RFD 113]
- Name the phase you're in (scoping → … → production) and act accordingly [RFD 5]
- Toolmaking is core engineering work — build the missing tool (buildomat) instead of tolerating friction [sharpening the axe] [buildomat]
- Rust where correctness pays rent, all the way down to firmware [iddqd] [Klabnik]
- Transparency as default — uniform pay, public RFDs, recorded meetings [compensation] [engineering culture]
- Model long-running operations as observable, recoverable workflows — never fire-and-forget [RFD 107]
- Demo working things continuously; trust demos over status reports [engineering culture]
- Keep agent instructions local to the code they govern, and cover every harness in use [omicron PR 10628]
What ships with it
4 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.

develop-like-oxide is a skill published in the GitHub repository marcusrbrown/dev-like (3 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 77 tokens to every session and 1,658 once invoked, about $0.0003 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.
