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 | $0.00091 | $0.04529 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00046 | $0.02264 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00018 | $0.00906 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00453 |
Grade A, and why
six-thinking-hats 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 11d 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.
This is a copy
100% identical to six-thinking-hats — 0 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 689 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Six Thinking Hats
Apply Edward de Bono's parallel thinking framework (1985) to make better decisions by examining ideas from six distinct perspectives systematically.
When to Use This Skill
- Making complex decisions that require multiple perspectives
- Evaluating new products, offers, or strategies before launch
- Breaking out of analysis paralysis with structured thinking
- Running productive meetings where everyone thinks in the same direction
- Balancing optimism with caution in strategic planning
- Generating creative alternatives when stuck on a problem
Methodology Foundation
| Aspect | Details |
|---|---|
| Source | Six Thinking Hats (1985) |
| Expert | Edward de Bono - Coined "lateral thinking", advisor to IBM, Shell, NASA |
| Core Principle | "Parallel thinking" - Instead of adversarial debate, everyone thinks in the same direction at the same time, switching perspectives together |
What Claude Does vs What You Decide
| Claude Does | You Decide |
|---|---|
| Structures content frameworks | Final messaging |
| Suggests persuasion techniques | Brand voice |
| Creates draft variations | Version selection |
| Identifies optimization opportunities | Publication timing |
| Analyzes competitor approaches | Strategic direction |
What This Skill Does
This skill replaces chaotic brainstorming and unproductive debates with structured parallel thinking.
Instead of people defending positions and attacking others, everyone:
- Examines facts together (White)
- Shares feelings together (Red)
- Explores risks together (Black)
- Discovers benefits together (Yellow)
- Generates alternatives together (Green)
- Manages the process together (Blue)
The result: Faster decisions, better buy-in, more creative solutions, and reduced conflict.
How to Use
Analyze a Decision or Strategy
Apply the Six Thinking Hats to analyze:
[describe decision, product, strategy, or problem]
Go through each hat systematically and provide insights.
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.

six-thinking-hats is a skill published in the GitHub repository martineserios/thebrana (3 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 91 tokens to every session and 4,529 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 100% identical to six-thinking-hats, differing in 0 lines, and is treated as a copy.
