What is usap-skills GEMINI.md?

A set of instructions for USAP Skills, a collection of security-focused skills and coordinating agents used with the Gemini command-line tool. It describes the repository layout and commands for security analysis, incident response, red-team work, and related tasks.

Running security reviews, investigating incidents, planning red-team exercises, securing development pipelines, and preparing security reports through the listed commands.

It helps the coding agent choose and use the right security workflow instead of searching through many separate skill packages.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00755	$0.00755
Opus 5	$0.00378	$0.00378
Sonnet 5	$0.00151	$0.00151
Haiku 4.5	$0.00076	$0.00076

Security

Grade A, and why

usap-skills GEMINI.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 5d 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 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.
