Claude Scholar is a semi-automated research assistant for academic research and software development, supporting literature review, coding, experiments, reporting, writing, and project knowledge management. Computer science and AI researchers use it across the research workflow with several coding-agent platforms; the catalogue contains its skills, commands, agents, hooks, plugin, and instruction.
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 | $0.00020 | $0.00164 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00010 | $0.00082 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00004 | $0.00033 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00016 |
Grade A, and why
kb-links 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 10d 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
/kb-links
Use obsidian-kb-artifacts for standalone wikilink repair.
Default surfaces:
Sources/Knowledge/Experiments/Results/Writing/00-Hub.md01-Plan.md02-Index.md
Rules:
- repair links inside existing canonical notes first
- do not create new notes just to satisfy a weak connection
- after substantial link repair, run
/kb-syncor/kb-lint - only touch
Maps/when the user explicitly wants artifact updates
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.

kb-links is a command published in the GitHub repository Galaxy-Dawn/claude-scholar (5,407 stars, last pushed 13d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 20 tokens to every session and 164 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 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 2026-08-30.
