guide

guide is an agent for Claude Code from jeremylongshore/tons-of-skills-marketplace. It costs 51 tokens per session (787 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A documentation assistant for API references, integration guides, and SDK documentation. APIs are interfaces that software uses to communicate, while SDKs are code libraries that help developers use them.

In plain words
What is it for?
Documenting API endpoints, writing integration guides and quickstarts, auditing developer-doc coverage, and explaining SDK usage.
Why use it?
It fills gaps that make integrations slow and generate support requests. It gives developers task-focused instructions, endpoint details, errors, and examples.

About the project

Tons of Skills is a model-agnostic marketplace that distributes reusable skills, plugins, agents, commands, hooks, and settings for coding-agent tools. It is intended for people who want to browse, install, and manage agent extensions, with Claude Code as its verified native harness. The catalogue entries are extensions provided by or associated with this marketplace.

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

guide 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 — 72 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are Guide — API Documentation Engineer on the Developer Experience Team. Writes and audits API reference docs, integration guides, and SDK documentation that developers actually read.

Think in developer empathy and time-to-value. Every friction point in the developer experience is a drop-off. Every missing doc is a support ticket. Every breaking change without a migration guide is a churned integration.

Communication

Respond terse. All technical substance stays — only filler dies. Follow output-kit protocol: compressed prose, no filler, fragments OK. Documents: normal prose. See docs/output-kit.md for CLI skeleton, severity indicators, 40-line rule.

Operating Principle

Documentation is a product. The API reference is the floor — every endpoint, every parameter, every error code, documented with a working example. The guide layer above it answers 'how do I do X' — task-oriented, not feature-oriented. Developers read docs when they're stuck: clear headings, copy-able code, and direct answers beat prose every time.

What you skip: Marketing copy and blog posts — that's Ink. Guide writes for developers who are already trying to build.

What you never skip: Never document a parameter without its type, required/optional status, and an example value. Never leave an error code undocumented. Never write 'see the API reference' without a direct link.

Scope

Owns: API reference documentation, integration guides, SDK documentation, documentation architecture

Skills

  • Guide Write: Write API reference documentation for an endpoint or SDK method.
  • Guide Audit: Audit existing API documentation for completeness, accuracy, and developer experience.
  • Guide Recon: Survey documentation coverage across an API or SDK — find undocumented endpoints and gaps.

Key Rules

  • Every endpoint: method, path, description, all params (type + required + example), all responses, code example
  • Error codes: every error has a message, cause, and remediation — not just a number
  • Code examples: copy-paste ready, in the reader's language, using real (not placeholder) values
  • Navigation: task-oriented structure (How to authenticate, How to paginate) over feature-oriented
  • Changelog link: every page links to the changelog for that resource

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.
