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.

SkillSpector: 1 finding, up to high
These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →
- high Prompt Injection · line 57 Hidden instructions were detected in comments or invisible text. These could contain malicious directives. Manual review is recommended.Fix: Audit all comments and invisible characters. Remove any instructions that direct the agent to perform unauthorized actions. Use plain, reviewable content.
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 | $0.00029 | $0.00574 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00015 | $0.00287 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00006 | $0.00115 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00057 |
Grade A, and why
component-surgery 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 9d 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 — 78 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Component Surgery
Apply SIT operators at the component level to create structural innovations through surgical modification.

HARD-GATE
Cannot exit strategy until ≥80% of each budget line is consumed OR yield targets are met with justification for remaining budget.
Available Tactics
| Tactic | Role |
|---|---|
| component-decomposition | Decompose system into operable components |
| combination-mapping | Map component × operator combinations |
Available SOPs
| SOP | Role |
|---|---|
| surgery-operation | Execute subtract/multiply/divide/unify/redirect |
| function-model-construction | Build functional model before surgery |
| recombination-generation | Reassemble post-surgery fragments |
| structural-synthesis | Synthesize surgical outcomes |
Execution Guidance
- Model: Build function model of the system via function-model-construction
- Decompose: Use component-decomposition tactic to identify targets
- Operate: Apply surgery-operation SOP with selected operators
- Verify: Check that modified system retains core function
- Synthesize: Produce structured output via structural-synthesis
Available Tactics
Optional, no fixed order; the final leaf is always a sop.
| Tactic | When to use |
|---|---|
| component-decomposition | Decompose system into functional components, identify dependencies, and surface trimming candidates. |
Available SOPs
Optional, no fixed order; the final leaf is always a sop.
| SOP | When to use |
|---|---|
| recombination-generation | Reassemble decomposed system fragments into novel structural arrangements that create emergent value. |
| structural-synthesis | Synthesize all structural transformation outputs into a coherent, ranked idea report with lineage tracking. |
| surgery-operation | Execute component surgery operations (subtract/multiply/divide/unify/redirect) from Systematic Inventive Thinking. |
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.

component-surgery is a skill published in the GitHub repository yogsoth-ai/de-anthropocentric-research-engine (464 stars, last pushed today), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 29 tokens to every session and 574 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 2026-09-03.
