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 | $0.00185 | $0.02385 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00074 | $0.00954 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00037 | $0.00477 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00018 | $0.00238 |
Grade A, and why
ticket-authoring 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 6d 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 — 186 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Ticket Authoring
Turn specs, bug reports, and loose requests into work items someone can pull and start without asking a question. Tracker-agnostic: works in Jira, Linear, GitHub Issues, or your tracker of choice.
When to use
- Turning a PRD or spec into a set of tickets
- Filing a bug that someone else will fix
- Writing a user story with checkable acceptance criteria
- Scoping a spike so it ends in a decision, not a shrug
- Opening an epic with a goal, a metric, and a way to kill it
- Auditing a backlog for tickets that are not ready to pull
- Tagging work items with a capitalization stage for finance
When NOT to use
- Writing the PRD or spec itself (use
pm-spec-writing) - Deciding what ships this quarter (use
roadmap-planning) - Running sprint ceremonies or measuring the team (use
sprint-operations) - Writing up what went wrong after the fact (use
after-action-report) - Handing a whole plan to a coding agent to execute unattended (use
dispatch-authoring)
Required inputs
- The source material: a spec, a bug description, a request, or a conversation
- The ticket type, or enough context to pick one
- The tracker's field set, if it has required custom fields
- The parent epic or story, if one exists
- The capitalization policy, if the team capitalizes software development
If the source is vague, ask before writing. A ticket written around a guess becomes a second ticket later.
The framework: five types, one definition of ready each
A ticket is ready when the person who pulls it can start work without a question. Each type has its own required fields, its own attachments, and its own done test. A field left blank is a question someone will ask in the middle of the sprint.
Every type shares a base: title, type, owner, parent link, labels, and capitalization stage.
Bug
A bug ticket proves the defect exists and defines how to prove it is gone.
- Title.
[area] [symptom] when [trigger]. Example: "Checkout: total shows $0.00 when a promo code is removed." - Repro steps. Numbered. Each step is one action. Someone who has never seen the product can follow them.
- Environment. Build or version, browser or device, account type, data state.
- Observed vs expected. Two separate lines. Never one sentence with "but."
- Current test result. The test that fails today, or "no test covers this."
- Severity and priority. Two fields. Severity is how bad the defect is. Priority is when the team fixes it.
- Regression risk. What else touches this code path.
- QA notes. Edge cases to check beyond the repro.
- Fix verification method. The specific test that proves the fix, by name or by steps.
- Expected test result after fix. What passing looks like.

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.
