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 | $0.00064 | $0.01200 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00026 | $0.00480 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00013 | $0.00240 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00120 |
Grade A, and why
session-start 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 118 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
session-start
When to use
At the beginning of every working session. Not the first-time
bootstrap (use init for that).
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.
Quick reference
| Step | Reads | Writes |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Quick integrity + runtime drift check | repo structure + 3-control/runtime/profile.md + detect-runtime result |
— |
| 2. Load read order | 7 files (see Procedure §2) | — |
| 3. Consume NEXT | garden/essential/NEXT.md |
clears NEXT.md content |
| 4. Brief Owner | (compiled from loaded files) | — |
| 5. Confirm direction | (Owner reply) | — |
Procedure
1. Lightweight integrity check + runtime drift detection
Confirm 4 top folders + 2-mind/garden/ + 2-mind/forge/ +
3-control/foundation/{SOUL,PRINCIPLE}.md are present. If broken,
escalate to init.
Invoke detect-runtime skill in drift-check mode (cheap re-detect
using cached self-introspection where possible). Compare against
active 3-control/runtime/profile.md:
- profile.md present + detection matches → silent pass; use profile.md's active_tier
- profile.md present +
harness,backend_model, oreffective_contextdiffers → surface diff to Owner + propose re-ratify; default behavior = continue with profile.md's tier for this session - profile.md absent → default
active_tier = standard(R1 baseline) for this session; remind Owner to run/initto create activeprofile.mdfrom3-control/runtime/profile.example.md - detect-runtime fails or returns uncertain (no shell access,
headless, network unreachable) → continue silently with profile.md's
tier (or
standardif absent); record the failure in the audit-log next timeauditruns
2. Load read order (7 items, in sequence)
Canonical: 3-control/foundation/use-driven-memory.md §Read order.
Keep this operational list numerically in sync with that source.
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.

session-start is a skill published in the GitHub repository slowdoctor-dev/workspace-md (1 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 64 tokens to every session and 1,200 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.

memclaw
The agent's persistent long-term memory — the only knowledge that survives across sessions, shared across the fleet under access control. Consult it at the start of a task to recall prior decisions, findings, and rules before acting, and write outcomes, decisions, and lessons as work completes. Use whenever a caura…
marm-init
Guided MARM MCP setup. Invoke after running marm-memory init on the CLI to configure MARM memory across your agent. Drives transport choice, runtime choice, MCP config writing, multi-agent linking, and server start. Works on Claude, Codex, Gemini, Qwen, Cursor, VS Code, and other MCP-capable agents.
company-brain
How an agent should operate as one mind inside a shared Company Brain built on Caura — recall before acting, obey fleet keystones, reuse and publish skills, and report outcomes so every task compounds across the whole organization. Use this whenever you work as part of a Caura-connected team or fleet and your work…
compass-integrity
Use when the user is about to rely on prior session memory for a non-trivial decision, or when something feels off about a recall hit — runs the Merkle chain check, drift summary, and daemon liveness in one pass and surfaces any tampering, drift bursts, or daemon-down state before the user acts on stale or corrupted…
