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 | $0.00022 | $0.00357 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00011 | $0.00179 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00004 | $0.00071 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00036 |
Grade A, and why
walk-away-power 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
Walk-Away Power
The Big Idea
Being able to leave beats any argument.
Buyers smell a bluff. Real walk power comes from having other deals.
Never walk as punishment. Insulted people take revenge.
The Moves
-
Check before you leave. Deadlock or just fear, timing, money trouble? Try ONE question first: "What would need to change for this to work?"
-
The soft exit (decent person, bad fit): "No stress, this month is full anyway. If it matters again, I'm easy to find." One message. Then stop writing first.
-
The strong walk (terms impossible): "That number doesn't work for what this takes. I'd rather tell you straight than do it half-way." This one converts weeks later. You become the vendor who said no nicely.
-
The hard exit (abuse, scams, illegal asks): "Not something I can help with. Good luck." No lectures. The exit IS the boundary.
-
Two lines max on any goodbye. Long goodbyes read as hurt.
-
Your goodbye gets screenshots too. It must look clean forwarded by someone who dislikes you.
When It Backfires
- Threatening to walk for discounts. Called bluffs end deals and status.
- Walking angry. Wait ten minutes, then decide.
- Coming back later at a discount. Full price or not at all.
One-Line Memory
One warm no teaches everyone your terms are real.
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.
