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 | $0.00000 | $0.00448 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00000 | $0.00224 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00000 | $0.00090 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00045 |
Grade A, and why
vscode 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.
What it actually says
Watch Skill in VS Code (native MCP / Copilot agent mode)
Status: config verified against official docs, not machine-tested ☑ (VS Code with Copilot agent mode is not set up on the development machine.)
Requires VS Code ≥ 1.99 with GitHub Copilot and agent mode enabled.
Install
uvx --from "watch-skill[standard]" watch-skill doctor
uvx fetches the package on first use and needs no checkout. Prefer a
permanent install? pipx install "watch-skill[standard]", then use
"command": "watch-skill", "args": ["serve"] in the config below.
git clone https://github.com/oxbshw/watch-skill && cd watch-skill
uv sync --extra all
uv run watch-skill doctor
Then run watch-skill setup, which writes the config pointing at your
checkout rather than the published package.
Configure
Per-workspace .vscode/mcp.json (note: servers, not mcpServers):
{
"servers": {
"watch-skill": {
"type": "stdio",
"command": "uvx",
"args": ["--from", "watch-skill[standard]", "watch-skill", "serve"]
}
}
}
Or user-wide: Command Palette → MCP: Add Server.
Smoke test (3 steps)
- Command Palette → MCP: List Servers →
watch-skillrunning. - Copilot Chat (Agent mode), prompt: "Use watch-skill to watch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aqz-KE-bpKQ and tell me what happens at 0:10."
- Follow up: "list indexed videos" →
list_videos.
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.

vscode is an agent published in the GitHub repository oxbshw/watch-skill (320 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 448 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
