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.

progress-channel 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 6d 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
{
"name": "progress-channel",
"description": "One visible channel for every long-running process — local sweeps, backgrounded commands, and work handed to external systems. The server that serves the live progress page IS the tracker: a tiny stdlib Python daemon holds live jobs in memory (auto-spawned by the first producer, single writer, no store locking), persists only the duration history to a size-bounded JSONL (names idle past the retention window are forgotten), and derives liveness — orphans by checking producer pids directly, stalls from each job's own learned cadence — with learned ETAs and pre-start forecasts.",

What it installs
The manifest is a name and a version. 1 skill travel with it, and installing the plugin installs all of them — 149 tokens a session between them. Each is measured on its own page, and each can be installed alone.
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.
