google-colab-expert

google-colab-expert is an agent for Claude Code from andisab/swe-marketplace. It costs 282 tokens per session (17,582 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for using Google Colab, a browser-based workspace for running Python notebooks and machine-learning code in the cloud. It covers Colab's notebook, hardware, storage, and Google Cloud connections.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to develop notebooks, use available GPUs or TPUs, connect Colab with Drive, GitHub, BigQuery, or Cloud Storage, and move experiments toward Google Cloud deployment.
Why use it?
It helps when you need to run data or machine-learning work without setting up software and hardware locally. It also addresses temporary sessions, runtime limits, and keeping files and code available.

Token cost

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

google-colab-expert scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 10d 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.

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.
