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 | $0.00019 | $0.00360 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00010 | $0.00180 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00004 | $0.00072 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00036 |
Grade A, and why
status-update 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 10d 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
status-update
Purpose
Create a concise update from messy conversation state without losing the ask, risk, or next milestone.
Modes
- team
- manager
- executive
- customer / partner
Inputs
- Slack or email context
- Project or ticket context
- Meeting notes
- Customer context
- Pasted update notes
- A
reduce-to-factsledger or conversation-state record
Guardrails
- Read before write.
- Do not send the update unless explicitly asked.
- Keep risks separate from blockers.
- Tune tone and detail to the audience.
- Label assumptions and source gaps.
- Keep the output short enough to send quickly.
Portable Output Contract
- Use only the useful subset of source-backed facts, assumptions, source gaps, stakeholder sensitivities, potential misreads, and the suggested next action.
- Use the smallest useful output.
- Label assumptions and preserve source gaps, source anchors, and confidence labels.
- When consuming upstream state, do not promote an assumption, inference, open question, proposed action, or stakeholder position into a fact, decision, commitment, owner, or deadline without new source support.
- Keep unresolved approvals, owners, timing, and blockers explicit in the update.
- Do not send, publish, update tickets, create events, or mutate systems unless explicitly asked.
Output
- Conversation state
- Status
- What changed
- Progress
- Risks / blockers
- Stakeholder sensitivities
- Asks
- Next milestone
- Suggested audience-specific version
Success Standard
The user should get a send-ready update in under 5 minutes.
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.

status-update is a skill published in the GitHub repository tmusser/context-to-action-skills (2 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 19 tokens to every session and 360 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.
