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 | $0.00066 | $0.03254 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00026 | $0.01302 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00013 | $0.00651 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00007 | $0.00325 |
Grade C, and why
detect-runtime scanned grade C with 3 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.
Sends data to an external URLmediumData exfiltration
A POST to an outside endpoint may be telemetry or may be exfiltration; either way the mod talks to somewhere, and you should know where.
curl -s http://localhost:11434/api/show -d '{"name":"<model>"}' | jq '.parameters' Reads agent configuration directoriesmediumAgent snooping
.claude/, .codex/, .gemini/ hold keys, settings and other credentials a mod has no legitimate need for.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

detect-runtime
When to use
- From
init— bootstrap; produce initial profile.md draft for Owner ratify fromprofile.example.md - From
session-start— cheap re-detect every session; compare against active profile.md when present; propose re-ratify on drift - Explicit
/detect-runtime— Owner invocation after switching harness or backend - From
audit(rare) — freshness re-check oflast_verifiedconstants
Requires
Requires 3-control/foundation/SOUL.md,
3-control/foundation/PRINCIPLE.md, and 2-mind/garden/essential/
to exist. If any are missing, run init instead of continuing.
Operationalizes the detection mechanism described in
3-control/foundation/runtime-flexibility.md §Detection mechanism.
Quick reference
Single principle: the running agent IS the runtime instance — agent self-introspection is the primary signal; objective signals (env vars, config files, endpoint queries) cross-check. Mismatch = report to Owner; never silently resolve.
Harness is an open enum. Known values:
claude-code, codex-cli, gemini-cli, antigravity, cursor,
hermes, opencode, continue, custom.
| Sub-step | Primary signal | Verification | Fallback |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1. Harness | Agent self-introspection | Env var → repo config folder → user-level config | custom |
| 2. Backend (provider + endpoint + model) | Agent self-identification | Per-harness config read; if local-via-proxy, probe localhost ports for /v1/models |
Ask Owner |
| 3. Effective context | Agent self-knowledge | Hosted: known-constants table (below); Local: /v1/models response + attention-cliff clamp |
Owner declaration |
Optional helper: 2-mind/forge/act/script/detect-runtime.sh
automates objective verification only: Sub-step 1B/C/D, Sub-step
2B/C, Sub-step 3C (local endpoint) only, then Step 4 tier derivation
and Step 5 JSON emission. Hosted Sub-step 3B is the agent's
cross-check against the SKILL known-constants table, not scripted. The
helper cannot perform Step 0 / Sub-step A agent self-introspection.
The running agent supplies that primary signal before interpreting the
helper output.
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.

detect-runtime is a skill published in the GitHub repository slowdoctor-dev/workspace-md (1 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 66 tokens to every session and 3,254 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it C with 3 findings (sends data to an external url, reads agent configuration directories, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
