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 | $0.00026 | $0.00311 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00013 | $0.00156 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00005 | $0.00062 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00031 |
Grade A, and why
devils-advocacy 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.
What it actually says
Devil's Advocacy
Constructs the strongest possible case against a given position or assumption.
Execution
Subagent — spawned via subagent-spawning/spawn-agent.
Why Subagent
Devil's advocacy requires full commitment to the opposing position. The agent must genuinely argue against the position without hedging or pulling punches.
Input
- position: The position or assumption to argue against
- context: Surrounding context (artifact, domain, prior findings)
Output
- counter_argument: The strongest case against the position
- evidence: Supporting evidence for the counter-argument
- confidence: How strong the counter-argument actually is (0.0-1.0)
- fatal_if_true: Whether the counter-argument would be fatal to the artifact
Available SOPs
Optional, no fixed order; the final leaf is always a sop.
| SOP | When to use |
|---|---|
| spawn-agent | Spawn a customized CC subagent with full MCP tool access. Used by SOPs that declare execution: subagent. |
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.

devils-advocacy is a skill published in the GitHub repository yogsoth-ai/stress-test (2 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 26 tokens to every session and 311 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings.
