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 | $0.00028 | $0.00339 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00014 | $0.00169 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00006 | $0.00068 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00034 |
Grade A, and why
risk-reversal 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.
What it actually says
Risk Reversal
The Big Idea
Buyers don't fear the price. They fear paying and getting nothing.
Everyone says "trust me". Almost nobody says "pay only if it works". The second one wins, because you can't fake it cheaply.
The Moves
-
Pay after result beats any guarantee. Money-back is words. Pay-later is structure. "Nothing upfront. You see it done, then you pay."
-
Say it out loud. "You'd judge me by results anyway. I just put it in writing."
-
One free demo at your cost. "First one is free. If it works, you pay for that one plus the rest." Nothing converts a skeptic faster.
-
Small steps for big doubt. "Batches of five. Each batch paid after you check it." Trust grows in checked steps.
-
Even a NO leaves them ahead. Give something they keep: an audit, a checklist, real info. "Wasted my time" becomes "still got value".
-
Only promise what you can carry. A risk reversal you can't honor is failure number one.
When It Backfires
- Fine print. Conditions kill the effect. Keep it short enough to screenshot.
- Using it on buyers who already said yes. Save it for the scared ones.
One-Line Memory
Take their risk, and the deal closes itself.
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.

risk-reversal is a skill published in the GitHub repository YannisKiefer/dark-psychology-skills (5 stars, last pushed 17d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 28 tokens to every session and 339 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.
