A read-only guide that maps a user's goal to the right Midas command. Midas is a command system with separate workflows for tasks such as setup and status checks.

Use it when you are unsure which Midas command to run, want to understand what a selected command will do, or need to know when not to use it.

It helps users choose one suitable command without exposing internal or outdated options.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

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	$0.00061	$0.01012
Opus 5	$0.00030	$0.00506
Sonnet 5	$0.00012	$0.00202
Haiku 4.5	$0.00006	$0.00101

Measured 8d ago against content hash 39a2eab32df3, method: parsed. Prices are Anthropic first-party input rates as of 2026-09-08, from the pricing page.

Security

Grade A, and why

midas-help 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 8d 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 — 68 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

midas-help — intent → one command

Paths / state: <paths.engine>/templates/skill-state-ritual.md (read-only) + AGENTS.md § Path resolution.

Read-only. Never writes, never advances gates. Complements /midas-status (pipeline PC). Canonical catalog + router: docs/skills.md (install: <paths.engine>/docs/skills.md) — cite it; do not paste the full situation→command table unless the user picks "I'm not sure". Flow shape (handoffs, not commands): docs/skill-flows.md (install: <paths.engine>/docs/skill-flows.md) — cite when the user asks how skills connect; commands still come from docs/skills.md or /midas-status. Surface filter (ADR-013): AskQuestion options and Exact commands are user-surface: primary only. Do not offer internal (progress, qa, diff-gates, lean-review, sweep) or deprecated aliases (update, auto-pilot aliases) as menu choices — parents path-pass those; power-users may type them.

Response map (L3): ./response-map.md — after AskQuestion, load only the chosen option.

Steps

Ask once. Use AskQuestion with ONE single-select. Options (copy labels exactly, this order):
- Set up or update Midas (/midas-init)
- Start a product idea or adopt brownfield (/idea-intake / /midas-adopt)
- Resume after a break (/midas-status + /midas-recall)
- Run the next phase gate (phase skills 0–8)
- Start or close a sprint (/start-sprint / /close-sprint / /midas-auto-pilot / /midas-retro)
- Debug a failing fix (/midas-investigate)
- Autonomy / auto-pilot (/midas-auto-pilot)
- Verify UI before close (/midas-verify)
- Clean dead flows / lean the repo (/midas-hygiene)
- Redesign product UI (/midas-design)
- Security or adversarial review (/midas-security-audit / /midas-tribunal)
- Capture a recurring pattern (/midas-capture)
- Export or import project knowledge (/midas-bundle)
- Install confusion / adapter health (/midas-reconcile / /midas-doctor)
- Investigate something outside the pipeline (/midas-explore)
- I'm not sure — show a short summary table

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.
