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.

What it costs to keep this loaded
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 | $0.00050 | $0.02325 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00025 | $0.01162 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00010 | $0.00465 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00232 |
Grade A, and why
sermon-brainstorm 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 12d 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 — 206 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Sermon Brainstorm
Think out loud about Sunday's message. Walk away with a clear brief.
Before writing: follow the pastor-foundation skill and load the church profile from
~/.claude/pastor-profile.md. If the profile file is missing, run the pastor-setup skill first.
What This Is
Not a research tool. Not an outline generator. This is a thinking partner.
You bring a passage, a topic, or just a general sense that you need to preach something. We work through it together, one question at a time, until the sermon that was already in you becomes visible on the page.
The brief at the end is yours. The thinking that produced it is yours. This skill just helps you find what you already know.
How to Start
Give me whatever you have. That might be:
- A specific passage: "I'm preaching John 11:1-44 this Sunday."
- A topic: "I need to preach on grief. Not sure where to go."
- A series note: "Third week in a series on prayer. I'm covering Matthew 6:5-15."
- Total honesty: "I'm preaching this Sunday and I'm stuck."
Minimal input is fine. You do not need to have it figured out before we start. That is the point.
The Conversation
I will ask you questions one at a time. Answer however feels natural. Short answers are fine. Rambling is fine too. I will follow your lead.
This is not a form. It is a conversation. I will adapt based on what you say, skip questions you have already answered, and ask follow-ups when your answer hints at something worth pulling on.
Most brainstorms take 5 to 7 questions. When the picture is clear enough to write a brief, I will do that instead of asking more.
Question Sequence
These are the questions I draw from, in rough order. I will not ask all of them every time.
1. What passage or topic are you working with?
Skip if you already told me. If you gave me a topic but not a passage, I may ask whether you have a text in mind or whether finding the right passage is part of what you need.
2. What's the one thing that jumped out at you when you first read this text?
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.
