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 | $0.00026 | $0.00156 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00013 | $0.00078 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00005 | $0.00031 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00016 |
Grade A, and why
authoring-discipline 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 2d 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.
What it actually says
Authoring discipline — prose depth
Always-on priming: .agents/rules/authoring-discipline.md.

What ships with it
1 file 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.

authoring-discipline is a skill published in the GitHub repository stainless-code/codemap (8 stars, last pushed 7d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 26 tokens to every session and 156 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 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.
Other skills, from other repositories
roam
Codebase comprehension via roam-code CLI. Use when exploring codebases, planning modifications, debugging failures, assessing PR risk, or checking architecture health. Triggers on: understanding project structure, pre-change safety checks, finding symbols/files, blast radius analysis, affected tests, health scoring…
agentmap
Use for TypeScript/JavaScript codebase navigation — symbol lookup, blast radius, reuse checks, and repo orientation. Prefer agentmap before serial grep when exploring imports, exports, or where a symbol lives. Package is @raymondchins/agentmap (not the unrelated npm package agentmap).
self-repair-pipeline
Runs the full entry point self-repair pipeline. Detects entry points in Ariadne packages or external codebases, triages false positives via sub-agents, plans fixes for each issue group with competing proposals and multi-angle review, and creates backlog tasks.
analyze-usage
Use when asked to analyze codescout tool usage, check for error patterns, audit tool health, generate a usage report, spot anti-patterns, or clear usage statistics to start fresh.
m1nd-first
Use when investigating a repository, searching for implementation, reviewing changes, working from specs/docs, or preparing a risky code change in an environment where m1nd is available. This doctrine makes m1nd the first investigative layer before grep, glob, or manual file reads, except when the task is pure…
release
Prepare a new release of Ariadne packages. Creates changesets, verifies build/tests, and drafts the PR to main.
