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.

A badge with what this costs and how it scanned, read live from this page, so it follows the numbers instead of freezing them. Markdown for a README, HTML for a documentation site or a project page.

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 | $0.00034 | $0.00331 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00017 | $0.00166 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00007 | $0.00066 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00033 |
Grade A, and why
creative-writing-modes 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 5d 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
91% identical to creative-writing-modes — 4 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.
What it actually says
Creative Writing Modes
Load /llm-writing if it is not already loaded. This skill adds the
creative-writing layer for putting prose on the page: story pressure, voice,
rhythm, omission, ambiguity, genre promise, and reader simulation.
Use the smallest mode that fits the task. Read only the matching section in
resources/prose-modes.md unless the prompt explicitly asks for a hybrid pass.
Prose Modes
- Fresh draft — new prose from a brief, outline, style files, and canon.
- Revision — change an existing draft from author direction or critique.
- Bridge / connective tissue — connect scenes, compress time, or shift register.
- Alternate take — test a meaningfully different execution of the same beat.
- Line polish — improve rhythm, precision, and texture after structure settles.
Genre Resources
Genre is craft guidance, not a prose mode. When genre expectations shape the pass, load /creative-writing-craft and the relevant resource under resources/genre/ there.
Boundary
This is not a planning or review skill. Use /story-planning before there is a page to write.
Use /story-review, /reader-sim, and continuity checking when the page needs judgment. Return here when the next step is to write the prose.
What ships with it
1 file 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.

creative-writing-modes is a skill published in the GitHub repository Natsummerance/readMD (22 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 34 tokens to every session and 331 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 91% identical to creative-writing-modes, differing in 4 lines, and is treated as a copy.
