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 | $0.00031 | $0.00991 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00012 | $0.00396 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00198 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00099 |
Grade A, and why
mbox 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 17d 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.
The source is not reproduced here
A licence we could not identify
The repository carries a LICENSE file, but it is custom or dual enough that GitHub cannot name it and neither can this catalogue. Unknown terms are not permission, so the body is not copied here. Read the licence at the source and decide for yourself.
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.

mbox is a command published in the GitHub repository BigCactusLabs/dead-letter (8 stars, last pushed yesterday), with no licence file. It adds 31 tokens to every session and 991 once invoked, about $0.0001 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 2026-09-29.

redact
Redact sensitive strings (emails, phones, SSNs, IPs, card numbers, or custom regexes) from a text file or PDF using the carrel CLI — PDFs are truly rasterized, not just overlaid.
fields
Extract vendor, invoice number, PO, dates, subtotal, tax, total and currency from invoices, receipts and statements with the carrel CLI, and optionally save them as desk fields.
ground
Verify the Evidence Anchors in a document (defaults to the newest plan file).
ocr
OCR an image or PDF into text (txt/md) or a searchable PDF using the carrel CLI.
inspect
Show rich metadata for a local file (pdf, image, json, csv, xml, html, md, txt, docx, odt, epub, rtf, xlsx) using the carrel CLI.
