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 | $0.00034 | $0.00524 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00017 | $0.00262 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00007 | $0.00105 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00052 |
Grade A, and why
split-to-prs 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 3d 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 split-to-prs — 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 50 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Split to PRs
Turn one pile of work into a few small PRs.
Hard rules
- Do not create branches, commit, push, or open PRs until the user approves the split plan.
- Never discard user work. No destructive git commands (
reset --hard,clean -fdx, branch deletion, force-push, history rewrite) without explicit approval. - Always save a recoverable snapshot before moving work around. This often starts from dirty work on
main, so do not assume there is already a safe branch. - Stage only named files or hunks. No
git add ./git add -A.
1. Check the state
Compare the current work to the repo's default branch, including committed and uncommitted changes. Summarize the real slices you see, and use the chat history to recover intent.
Before proposing slices, find ownership signals for the touched paths (CODEOWNERS, nested ownership files, tools/ownership/PRODUCTOWNERS, or repo equivalents) and use them to identify natural reviewer boundaries.
2. Propose the split
Use judgment on detail. Usually PR titles are enough. Add a one-line scope note only when a title is unclear. Show a Mermaid diagram when there are multiple slices.
Optimize for reviewer-aligned PRs with minimal unrelated diff: split independent owners or concerns, keep tightly coupled changes together, and when stacking is necessary, order foundations before consumers.
Default to independent PRs off the default branch. Stack PRs only when the dependency is real.
Ask for approval before starting.
3. Execute the split
-
If there is uncommitted work, save a recoverable snapshot without changing the working tree:
SHA=$(git stash create "pre-split") if [ -n "$SHA" ]; then git update-ref "refs/backup/pre-split-$(date +%s)" "$SHA" fi -
For each approved slice, create a branch from the right base, stage and commit only the planned files or hunks, then push and open the PR.
4. Report back
Keep it short: PR titles and URLs, plus anything left on the starting branch or working tree. Do not delete the backup ref or original branch unless the user asks.
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.

split-to-prs is a skill published in the GitHub repository saski/arnesto (5 stars, last pushed today), licensed Unlicense. It adds 34 tokens to every session and 524 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 100% identical to split-to-prs, differing in 0 lines, and is treated as a copy.
Other skills, from other repositories
diff-review
Render the patch-edit run's accumulated changes as a reviewable diff, surface it through a GenUI choice surface, and persist the user's accept / reject decision into the artifact manifest.
clean
Pre-commit anti-slop audit — checks staged/dirty files for code slop (debug artifacts, single-use helpers, dead imports) AND documentation slop (stale claims, broken internal links, new .md files, redundant sections). Writes a sentinel so the pre-commit-gate hook lets the commit through. MUST be invoked before git…
owndiff-pre-commit
Audit OwnDiff changes before committing or releasing by checking scope, generated artifacts, private data, documentation accuracy, version consistency, structured files, tests, and the OwnDiff ownership gate. Use when a user asks to verify, clean up, prepare, commit, publish, or release changes in the OwnDiff…
phase-commit
Create one local commit for a completed, validated, and reviewed unit of work. Use only when the user explicitly requests a commit without pushing or other delivery actions.
review-implement-phase
Implements triaged review actions, commits focused fixes, and posts Done plus resolves threads. Use when the user wants only the implementation phase of the review-framework workflow.
github-pr-workflow
Prepare a GitHub pull request from a feature branch — branch hygiene, commit shape, title/body, verification notes, screenshots for UI work, and replies to review comments.
