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.

A badge with what this costs and how it scanned, read live from this page, so it follows the numbers instead of freezing them. Markdown for a README, HTML for a documentation site or a project page.

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 5.1 | $0.00000 | $0.00363 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00000 | $0.00181 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00000 | $0.00073 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00036 |
Grade A, and why
004-skill-scaffolding 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 6d 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
Agent 004: Skill Scaffolding
Objective
Scaffold new skills from templates with limps skill create.
Tasks
-
Create skill template (
src/skills/templates/SKILL.md.template)- Anthropic-compliant frontmatter
- Placeholder sections for When to Use, Workflow, Examples
- Comments explaining each section
-
Implement create command (
src/cli/commands/skill/create.ts)- Create directory structure:
{name}/SKILL.md, references/, templates/ - Populate SKILL.md from template
- Inject name into frontmatter
- Attempt to get author from git config
- Create directory structure:
-
Output location options
- Default:
.limps/skills/{name}/ --output <dir>: Custom location--dist: Create indist/skills/(for bundled skills)
- Default:
Acceptance Criteria
-
limps skill create my-skillcreates valid structure - Generated SKILL.md passes Anthropic format validation
- Author populated from git config if available
-
--outputallows custom location - Refuses to overwrite existing skill

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.

004-skill-scaffolding is an agent published in the GitHub repository paulbreuler/limps (10 stars, last pushed 6mo ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 363 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 2026-08-31.

Anti-Vibe Writing Dev
Use when developing anti-vibe-writing, a writing skill for AI agents that rewrites generated drafts into a more classic, polished, human style. Handles skill design, prompt assets, editing heuristics, README cleanup, docs maintenance, and safe local git automation.
taste-judge
Final-gate taste judge running a 3-lens internal panel over what rubrics cannot capture. Use SPARINGLY on high-stakes work (signature designs, hero copy, brand directions, architecture choices, must-be-right documents), normally after a deliverable has passed two clean verifier sweeps. Also use to rank best-of-N…
zeus-docs
Maintains Zeus documentation quality, bilingual consistency, and workflow/command alignment across README and skill files.
zeus-planner
Converts approved Zeus specs into high-quality PRD stories and executable task waves with strict dependency integrity.
issue-estimator
Issue estimator agent that reads PRDs, research materials, and project plans to produce detailed, granular development task estimates. Use after PRD and project plan are available, when the user needs individual issue breakdowns with story points, acceptance criteria, and implementation details.
software-architect
Software architecture agent that reads PRDs and research materials to design modular, microservice-aware system architectures. Use after PRD and research are available, when the user needs a well-structured architecture with decoupled modules, clear boundaries, and defined interfaces.
