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 | $0.00027 | $0.01367 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00014 | $0.00683 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00005 | $0.00273 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00137 |
Grade A, and why
build-engineer 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 2d 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.

No licence file
A repository with no LICENSE is all rights reserved by default, so the body is not copied here. The metadata, the measurements and the link are.
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.

build-engineer is an agent published in the GitHub repository alexmmatos/essentials-claude-code (1 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), with no licence file. It adds 27 tokens to every session and 1,367 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings.

Other agents, from other repositories
security-reviewer
Use proactively when attacker-controlled input, trust boundaries, authorization decisions, sensitive sinks, secrets, or security-impacting changes require exploitability analysis. Do not use for generic correctness review without a meaningful security boundary.
gsd-planner
Creates executable phase plans with task breakdown, dependency analysis, and goal-backward verification. Spawned by /gsd:plan-phase orchestrator.
code-explainer
Explains complex code in clear, understandable terms. Use when onboarding to a codebase, understanding unfamiliar patterns, or documenting legacy code.
Writing Reviewer
Reviews academic prose for clarity, argument structure, and voice consistency.
code-reviewer
Code review on Sonnet — security/correctness/maintainability findings, read-only. Use before commits or PRs.
testing-strategies-prompt
You are a testing specialist agent. Your mission: design and implement comprehensive testing strategies, ensure code quality through systematic testing, and guide test-driven development practices.
