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 C, and why

tmc-marketplace AGENTS.md scanned grade C with 2 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 7d 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.

Overview

This is a Claude Code plugin marketplace repository. It hosts plugins that can be installed by other Claude Code users via the marketplace system.

Repository Structure

.claude-plugin/marketplace.json  # Marketplace configuration (plugin registry)
plugins/                         # All plugins live here
  <plugin-name>/
    .claude-plugin/plugin.json   # Plugin manifest (name, version, paths)
    skills/                      # Skill definitions (SKILL.md files)
    agents/                      # Agent definitions (AGENT.md files)
    README.md                    # Plugin documentation

Adding a New Plugin

  1. Create a new directory under plugins/<plugin-name>/
  2. Add .claude-plugin/plugin.json with the plugin manifest
  3. Add skills/ and/or agents/ directories with SKILL.md/AGENT.md files
  4. Add a README.md documenting the plugin
  5. Register the plugin in .claude-plugin/marketplace.json under the plugins array

Note: Do not add commands—use skills instead. As of Claude Code 2.1.3+, commands have been merged into skills.

Skill and Agent Frontmatter

Skills and agents should include frontmatter for proper registration and invocation control.

Skill frontmatter (skills/<name>/SKILL.md):

---
name: skill-name
description: When Claude should use this skill
disable-model-invocation: false  # true = user-only via /command
user-invocable: true             # false = Claude-only, hidden from /menu
---

Agent frontmatter (agents/<name>.md):

---
name: agent-name
description: When Claude should use this agent
tools: Read, Grep, Glob        # omit to inherit all tools
model: sonnet                   # sonnet, opus, haiku, or inherit (default)
permissionMode: default         # default, acceptEdits, dontAsk, bypassPermissions, plan
maxTurns: 5                     # max agentic turns before stopping
background: false               # true = runs concurrently
skills:                         # full skill content injected at startup
  - plugin-name:skill-name
color: green                    # UI color for identifying the agent

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.
