In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to request skill ideas for a project or a chosen focus area, such as testing or deployment, and to provide the project directory being analyzed.

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

suggest-skills 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 11d 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

Suggest Skills

Get suggestions for new skills to create using the skrills MCP server.

Use the mcp__plugin_skrills_skrills__suggest-new-skills tool with:

  • project_dir: Project directory for context analysis
  • focus_areas: Specific areas to focus on (e.g., testing, deployment)

Parse $ARGUMENTS for:

  • --focus <area> or -f <area>: Focus on specific area (can be repeated)
  • --project-dir <path> or -p <path>: Project to analyze

Analyze the current project context and identify:

  • Missing skills based on project technologies
  • Gaps in workflow coverage
  • Skills that similar projects typically have

Report suggestions including:

  • Suggested skill name and purpose
  • Why this skill would be useful
  • Estimated complexity
  • Similar existing skills that could be adapted

Handle errors:

  • If project directory invalid: Use current directory or prompt for path
  • If no context available: Provide generic suggestions based on focus area

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.
