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 | $0.00032 | $0.02000 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00016 | $0.01000 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00006 | $0.00400 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00200 |
Grade B, and why
gh-cli-setup scanned grade B 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 2d 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.
Asks for rootmediumPrivilege escalation
A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

GitHub CLI Setup & Troubleshooting
Overview
This skill helps diagnose and fix GitHub CLI (gh) installation, configuration, and authentication issues.
IMPORTANT: When providing installation instructions, always:
- Explain the recommended method (e.g., "Homebrew is the recommended way to install on macOS")
- Provide the actual command
- Mention alternative installation methods
- Add context about what the command does
- Do NOT just return a bare command without explanation
When to Use
Use this skill when:
ghcommand not found- Authentication errors occur
- gh CLI behaves unexpectedly
- Need to check gh CLI configuration
- Setting up gh CLI for first time
Quick Diagnostic
Run these commands to check status:
# Check if gh is installed
which gh
# Check gh version
gh --version
# Check authentication status
gh auth status
# List authenticated accounts
gh auth status --show-token
Installation
macOS
Using Homebrew (recommended):
brew install gh
Using MacPorts:
sudo port install gh
Using Conda:
conda install gh --channel conda-forge
Linux
Debian/Ubuntu/Raspbian:
# Add GitHub CLI repository
type -p curl >/dev/null || (sudo apt update && sudo apt install curl -y)
curl -fsSL https://cli.github.com/packages/githubcli-archive-keyring.gpg | sudo dd of=/usr/share/keyrings/githubcli-archive-keyring.gpg
sudo chmod go+r /usr/share/keyrings/githubcli-archive-keyring.gpg
echo "deb [arch=$(dpkg --print-architecture) signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/githubcli-archive-keyring.gpg] https://cli.github.com/packages stable main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/github-cli.list > /dev/null
# Install
sudo apt update
sudo apt install gh -y
Fedora/CentOS/RHEL:
sudo dnf install gh
Arch Linux:
sudo pacman -S github-cli
Using Snap:
sudo snap install gh
Using Conda:
conda install gh --channel conda-forge
Windows
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.

gh-cli-setup is a skill published in the GitHub repository aaddrick/gh-cli-search (8 stars, last pushed 9mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 32 tokens to every session and 2,000 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it B with 2 findings (asks for root, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
