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 | $0.00128 | $0.02151 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00064 | $0.01076 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00026 | $0.00430 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00013 | $0.00215 |
Grade A, and why
pause 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 2d 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 — 125 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
/pause — Save Long-Task Snapshot (TL;DR)
Writes a per-thread snapshot of the current work to [logs_folder]/pause/ so the next session can /resume and pick up seamlessly. Multiple pause files accumulate across days for the same task; /wrapup later consolidates them all into one session log.
Mental model: /pause = SAVE snapshot. It does NOT end the session and does NOT clear context. User runs /clear manually when ready to free context.
Scope
- /pause writes pause snapshot files only. It does NOT touch checkpoints, session logs, MEMORY.md, or memory/ files.
- It DOES update the pointer file
[logs_folder]/pause/_active.mdto set/confirm the active thread slug.
Step 1: Determine Active Thread Slug
- Read
[logs_folder]/pause/_active.mdif present. The file is plain text — one line — containing a kebab-case slug. - If the file exists and is non-empty: use that slug as
active_slug. - If absent / empty:
- Agent reviews session context → propose a kebab-case slug from the dominant topic (e.g.
cli-refactor,oracle-borrows) - Use
AskUserQuestionto confirm. Question: "Active thread name? Suggested:<proposed-slug>" with options: (a) accept suggestion, (b) type a different slug - On confirmation, set
active_slug = <chosen>and continue
- Agent reviews session context → propose a kebab-case slug from the dominant topic (e.g.
- If
/pause --task=<slug>was invoked with an explicit slug:- If
<slug>is not plain kebab-case (lowercase letters, digits, hyphens only — reject anything with glob or path characters like*,?,[,/) → abort with message "⚠️ Invalid thread name<slug>. Active thread unchanged." Slugs become filenames and glob patterns; never accept an unvalidated one. - If
_active.mdis empty or contains the same slug → setactive_slug = <slug>, skip warning - If
_active.mdcontains a different slug → useAskUserQuestion: "⚠️ Active thread:<existing>(N unmerged snapshots). Switch to<new>? (y/N)". Ony→ setactive_slug = <new>. Onn→ abort silently with message "Pause aborted — active thread unchanged."

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.

pause is a skill published in the GitHub repository onebrain-ai/onebrain (25 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 128 tokens to every session and 2,151 once invoked, about $0.0006 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.
