Getting it into your agent
It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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 | $0.00064 | $0.01458 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00026 | $0.00583 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00013 | $0.00292 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00146 |
Grade C, and why
aipdlc scanned grade C with 1 finding 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 1mo 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.

rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 150 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
AIPDLC — The AI-* PDLC (Product Development Life Cycle) Family
Injectable workflow packages that give AI coding agents structured expertise for professional software delivery.
What This Skill Provides
When installed, your AI agent gains access to 11 chained workflow packages covering the full PDLC (Product Development Life Cycle) — from raw idea to production-ready workspace with governance and test accountability baked in.
Each package makes your agent behave like a senior domain expert: a PMO advisor for initiation, a CTO/architect for design, a DevOps engineer for workspace setup, a compliance officer for governance, a QA lead for test strategy. No plugins, no APIs — just markdown-based procedural knowledge your agent reads and executes.

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.
