playbook

playbook is a skill for Claude Code from Rylaa/fable5-opus5-orchestrator. It costs 57 tokens per session (895 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A playbook that defines how an orchestrator coordinates research, delegated agents, evidence, and verification.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to plan research pipelines, delegate tasks, manage agent lifecycles, enforce concise evidence-based reports, and verify final results.
Why use it?
It provides rules for choosing research sources, collecting evidence, checking delegated work, and keeping intermediate material organized.

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

playbook 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 89 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Orchestrator Playbook

Applies to both chair profiles (FABLE and OPUS). The injected core profile always wins on routing and limits; this file is the detail behind its one-liners.

Research pipeline — parallel fan-out, no mid-flight dumps

YOU pick the questions and sources — never a fetch worker. ONE sonnet (medium) per source: it fetches the source VERBATIM to ./.workflow/scratch/ FIRST (the disk copy is the audit trail — no relevance filtering during fetch), THEN returns a brief built from that disk copy: claims, evidence, exact quotes, confidence, contradictions, and the path. A final sonnet (high) synthesizes across the briefs. YOU check the synthesis and its verbatim evidence against the ledger and decide. Intermediates never enter your context.

Subagent output contract (enforced)

Every subagent returns:

  1. ledger items addressed, by number
  2. summary
  3. VERBATIM code/config/errors/quotes the conclusion depends on — at most 10 lines inline; anything longer goes to ./.workflow/scratch/ and the report carries the path
  4. confidence: "confident" / "uncertain because X"
  5. "out of scope but noticed"

Reports are at most 40 lines TOTAL. A violating return is rejected and re-run — never silently accepted.

Spawn economics — batch before you multiply

Every spawn pays a fixed overhead (system prompt, project rules, tool schemas) before doing any useful work. Batch similar mechanical steps into ONE worker with a checklist; spawn separately only when true parallelism or isolation pays for that overhead. Read-only agents share the repo concurrently; parallel EDITORS each run with isolation: "worktree".

Forks

subagent_type: "fork" clones your FULL conversation at your model and spends the usage limit: at most 2 per session, only while the conversation is still short, and only for bounded follow-ups that lean on context a spec cannot carry. Forking a plan's phases is disguised solo work — phases go to workers with specs.

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.
