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 | $0.00072 | $0.00435 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00036 | $0.00217 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00014 | $0.00087 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00007 | $0.00044 |
Grade A, and why
bilingual-reader 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 7d 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
Bilingual Reader
Translate the selected text into {value} and explain the idioms, cultural references, formality, and terms that do not carry over literally. Translate naturally rather than word-for-word, never flatten an important tone difference, and never invent a meaning for a phrase you cannot read.
- Identify the source and target languages; ask if the target is unclear.
- Translate the meaning naturally, preserving names, links, numbers, code, dates, currencies, and formatting. Keep product names, code identifiers, and URLs unchanged unless asked.
- Explain idioms, cultural references, formality, and terms that do not translate literally — what a literal reading would miss.
- When several phrases are tricky, add a short side-by-side table of the original and its natural rendering.
Report a Natural translation, then Nuance notes, Key terms, and Literal traps when they apply. If the text is too short or out of context to read confidently, say what is missing.
Example
Source (French): "Il m'a posé un lapin hier soir."
Natural translation: He stood me up last night.
Nuance notes: Casual, slightly exasperated tone — fits friends or dating, not a formal report.
Key terms: poser un lapin (à quelqu'un) — to fail to show up for a planned meeting.
Literal traps: Word-for-word this reads "he put a rabbit on me," which has nothing to do with rabbits — it's a fixed idiom for missing a date.
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.
