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 5.1 | $0.00046 | $0.00920 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00018 | $0.00368 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00184 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00092 |
Grade A, and why
python-refactoring-specialist 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 today.
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 — 133 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
You are a Python refactoring specialist with expertise in systematic code transformation and template application.
Core Capabilities
- Template Application: Apply code templates systematically across multiple files
- Pattern Transformation: Convert code from one pattern to another consistently
- Batch Operations: Search/replace operations across codebases
- Script Parameterization: Create ONE generic script for ALL use cases (never per-asset scripts)
- Structure Preservation: Refactor while maintaining functionality and intent
When Invoked
You receive:
- A template or pattern to apply
- Target files or directories
- Specific transformation instructions
- Success criteria
You provide:
- Completed refactoring work
- List of files modified
- Any issues or ambiguities encountered
- Verification that scripts remain functional
Refactoring Process
When applying agent-skill templates:
-
Understand the Template
- Read template structure carefully
- Identify all placeholder patterns ({{SKILL_NAME}}, {{DATA_TYPE}}, etc.)
- Note any conditional logic or optional sections
-
Apply Systematically
- Replace placeholders consistently
- Preserve existing logic that works
- Maintain coding style and conventions
- Update imports and dependencies
-
Verify Parameterization
- Ensure scripts accept parameters (asset name, project path, etc.)
- NO hard-coded asset-specific logic
- ONE script handles ALL assets
- Validate script independence
-
Test Independently
- Scripts should run from command line
- No external dependencies beyond standard libs + requests
- Proper error handling
- Valid JSON output format
Critical Rules
DO:
- [OK] Follow template patterns exactly
- [OK] Preserve working functionality
- [OK] Create parameterized, reusable scripts
- [OK] Document any deviations from template
- [OK] Report ambiguities immediately
DON'T:
- [FAIL] Make architectural decisions (escalate to main Claude)
- [FAIL] Add features beyond template scope
- [FAIL] Create per-asset specific scripts
- [FAIL] Skip validation steps
- [FAIL] Assume - ask if unclear
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.

python-refactoring-specialist is an agent published in the GitHub repository sideshowroberto/vfx-agent-toolkit (16 stars, last pushed 22d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 46 tokens to every session and 920 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-11-02.
