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 | $0.00062 | $0.00545 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00031 | $0.00272 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00012 | $0.00109 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00055 |
Grade A, and why
ctx-verify 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 4d 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 — 49 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Verify ctx changes
- Inspect the requested behavior and changed surface. Read only the relevant
section of
CONTRIBUTING.mdbefore selecting checks. - Run the smallest focused tests or deterministic checks that exercise the changed behavior first.
- Escalate evidence in proportion to risk:
- Small, localized change: focused tests, schemas, or diff checks.
- Material repository change:
scripts/no_mistakes_run.sh fast. - PR-level, contract, workflow, migration, packaging, security, or release
change: run the fast gate, then
python scripts/ci_preflight.py --profile pr. - Documentation navigation or linked public-asset change: follow the tracker
contract in
CONTRIBUTING.md; do not require tracker changes for ordinary prose-only edits. - Windows-sensitive change: follow the native-CI contract in
CONTRIBUTING.md; local checks do not replace required Windows evidence.
- Treat the fast gate as committed-history evidence. When the working tree is dirty, pair it with focused checks against the actual uncommitted changes.
- If a gate cannot find its trusted pytest, Ruff, and mypy environment, report the environment failure. Do not silently install dependencies or weaken the trust check.
- Use an independent validator only when semantic risk remains after deterministic checks, especially for material security, migration, or release work.
- Report each check, its result, and any omitted or unavailable evidence.
Rubric
Mark each applicable criterion pass, fail, or not verified:
- Intent: The artifact satisfies the request without unrelated scope.
- Behavior: Fresh evidence covers the changed success path and relevant failure or regression paths.
- Static integrity: Applicable lint, formatting, and type checks pass.
- Repository contracts: Migration, changed-file, documentation, packaging, and platform requirements remain satisfied where relevant.
- Evidence quality: Results apply to the actual changed surface and are not stale or inapplicable.
- Handoff: Skipped checks and residual risks are stated plainly.
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.

ctx-verify is a skill published in the GitHub repository stevesolun/ctx (583 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 62 tokens to every session and 545 once invoked, about $0.0003 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 2026-08-30.
