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 | $0.00065 | $0.00498 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00026 | $0.00199 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00013 | $0.00100 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00050 |
Grade A, and why
archive 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 1mo 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
100% identical to archive — 0 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
Archive Skill
Capture, index, and reuse project knowledge across sessions.
When to Archive
- After completing a significant task (deploy, migration, major feature)
- After resolving a tricky debugging session
- When the user says "archive this"
- After any multi-step process with learnings worth preserving
When to Consult Archives
- Before debugging infrastructure, deploy, or CI issues
- Before repeating a process done in a past session
- When encountering an error that may have been solved before
Search: grep -ri "keyword" .archive/
Index: .archive/MEMORY.md
Archive Workflow
- Read
.archive/MEMORY.md— check for related existing archives - Create
.archive/YYYY-MM-DD/directory if needed - Write markdown file with YAML frontmatter (see
references/TEMPLATE.md) - Update
.archive/MEMORY.md: add one-line entry under the right category - If related archives exist, add
relatedfield in frontmatter
Lookup Workflow
- Read
.archive/MEMORY.mdto find relevant entries - Read the specific archive file for detailed context
- Apply learnings to current task
Categories
- infrastructure — AWS, ECS, IAM, networking, secrets, CloudWatch
- release — TestFlight, versioning, Git Flow, CHANGELOG
- debugging — Bug fixes, error resolution, gotchas
- feature — Feature design, implementation notes
- design — UI/UX, icons, visual design
Rules
.archive/must be in.gitignore— local-only notes- Keep entries concise but reproducible
- Focus on problems, fixes, and exact commands
- Always update MEMORY.md after creating an archive
- Use descriptive filenames (e.g.,
cloudwatch-logging.mdnotsession.md) - Include YAML frontmatter with
tags,category, and optionalrelated
What ships with it
3 files 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.

archive is a skill published in the GitHub repository ReScienceLab/TrySkills (3 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 65 tokens to every session and 498 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 100% identical to archive, differing in 0 lines, and is treated as a copy.

forget
Remove a personal fact, preference, relationship detail, topic, or prior event from Muse's active memory and stop existing copies or automations from bringing it back. Use for explicit requests such as 'forget that', 'don't remember this about me', or 'remove that from your memory'. Do not use when 'forget it' merely…

memory
Use when the user asks to remember, recall, forget, update, search, or inspect durable OpenSquilla memory, including profile facts in USER.md and long-term notes in MEMORY.md or memory//.md.
ha-data-stores
Map of Hope Agent's local data stores and safe read-only query workflow. Use when the user asks where Hope Agent stores data, wants to inspect sessions/messages/memory/logs/background jobs/knowledge indexes/settings, asks the model to query local app data, or debugging requires checking persisted state.

establishing-project-context
Use when the user asks to establish shared project language, or project work exposes a conflicting, renamed, or deprecated domain term that needs active semantic modeling. Routine small tasks stay on the fast path.
