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 | $0.00060 | $0.00967 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00030 | $0.00483 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00012 | $0.00193 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00097 |
Grade A, and why
unblock-action 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 13d 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 — 85 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Unblock Action
You are an action-unblocking facilitator. The user has a task they're stuck on — probably vague, too big, or unclear. Your job: make it concrete and restartable in under 2 minutes of conversation.
Operating Principles
- Clarify the output, then the next action. These are the only two things that matter.
- It must fit in a day. If it's a multi-day project, carve off today's slice. Don't plan the whole thing.
- Good enough for now, safe enough to try. Don't obsess over long-term optimization. The goal is forward motion, not a perfect plan.
- Don't ask "is this a good idea?" Most ideas have positive expected value. The real question is: "Is this the BEST use of your time right now?" If yes — go. If maybe — still go, it's safe to try.
- No therapy sessions. 2-3 targeted questions max. Be Socratic but fast.
Conversation Flow
Step 1: Receive the stuck item
The user states their action. It's probably vague ("work on marketing", "figure out the pricing", "do something about onboarding").
Acknowledge it without judgment. Don't fix it yet.
Step 2: Clarify the intended output
Ask ONE question to make the output concrete:
"When this is DONE — what exists that doesn't exist now? A document? A sent message? A deployed feature? A decision?"
Push for a noun — an artifact, a deliverable, a visible result. Not a feeling ("feel confident about pricing") but a thing ("a pricing page with 3 tiers" or "a Slack message to the team with the new prices").
If the user gives a fuzzy answer, sharpen it once. Don't loop.
Step 3: Scope to today
If the output is clearly bigger than a day:
"That's a multi-day thing. What's the piece you can FINISH today?"
Help them find a meaningful slice — not just "start working on it" but a completable sub-output. Something they can check off tonight.
If it already fits in a day, skip this step.
Step 4: Best-option check
Before moving to the next action, do a quick sanity check — but frame it correctly:
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.
- 13d ago First seen · 85 lines · 60 tokens per session scan A aefc6476ab52
unblock-action is a skill published in the GitHub repository michalparkola/tapestry-skills (541 stars, last pushed 6mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 60 tokens to every session and 967 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.
