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

Skills CLAUDE.md 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 2mo 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

CLAUDE.md

A public collection of reusable AI agent skills (CrowdLinker/Skills). Each skill lives in its own kebab-case directory with a SKILL.md; see README.md for the catalog and CONTRIBUTING.md for how to add one.

Supported agents and install methods are documented in AGENTS.md.

Working in this repo

  • This repo is public. Keep all committed content generic and model-agnostic — no internal repo names, file paths, secrets, or proprietary detail. Public framework names are fine.
  • A skill is just SKILL.md (required) plus optional references/, scripts/, assets/. After adding or changing one, update the skills table in README.md.

Changes

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.
