There is a "core" way to add files.

JLoader::register('MyHelperClass', JPATH_ROOT . '/modules/mod_breadcrumbs/helper.php');

You can use include() or include_once() to achieve this.

https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.include.php

https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.include-once.php

Example: (inside /templates/test/html/com_content/article/default.php)

include "/modules/mod_breadcrumbs/helper.php"; // provided the directory "modules" is inside the directory containing "default.php"

$class = new ModBreadCrubmsHelper();

$class->stuff();
