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 | $0.00018 | $0.00823 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00009 | $0.00411 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00004 | $0.00165 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00082 |
Grade A, and why
verify 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 4d 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 63 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Verifying hotin
hotin is a stdlib-only Python CLI (pyproject.toml entry point hotin = "hotin.cli:main").
Zero-key core (github, trends, hn, npm) hits real public APIs with no config.
Build a handle
python3 -m venv /tmp/hotin_verify_venv
source /tmp/hotin_verify_venv/bin/activate
pip install --quiet -e .
export XDG_DATA_HOME=/tmp/hotin_verify_xdg # isolates the sqlite cache from ~/.local/share
hotin is now a real binary on PATH. Config lives at ~/.config/hotin/.env (XDG_CONFIG_HOME,
not XDG_DATA_HOME) — setup --check reads it directly, unaffected by the cache override above.
Drive it
hotin about/hotin setup --check— no network, sanity check the install.hotin hn --limit 3— one real live call, fast, good smoke test of the free-text GitHub-reference extraction (hn/reddit/youtube share this mechanism).hotin hot --limit N --json— the real end-to-end surface: fetch_all() across all 8 adapters concurrently, cache, merge, rank. Takes ~25s (the fetch_all timeout ceiling) if any source is slow/failing — see gotcha below. Re-running within 300s (default TTL) should make previously-successful sources report"served from cache"and skip the network.hotin search <query> --json,hotin show <owner/repo> --json— cache-only, instant, exercise the merge/score path without any network.- Probe error paths:
searchwith no query (exit 2), negative--limit(exit 2),showon an uncached repo (clean JSON{"error": "not_cached", ...}, exit 0).
Known gotcha: npm always times out
hotin.sources.npm.fetch() does one search request per DEFAULT_QUERIES term, then one
THROTTLE-gated (1.5s+jitter) download-stats request per candidate package, sequentially.
With 5 query terms × up to 40 results each, that's typically 30-100+ unique candidates —
90-300+ seconds of pure throttle wait, blowing straight through engine.fetch_all's 25s
per-cycle budget. Confirmed live 2026-07-19: npm reports "error", "timed out" on every
hot run, first run AND subsequent warm-cache runs (since it never successfully populates
its own cache entry, it's never "fresh" and always retries the full 25s). This is a known,
reliably-reproducible issue, not flaky — don't waste another live run "confirming" it again.
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.

verify is a skill published in the GitHub repository abe238/hotinai (3 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 18 tokens to every session and 823 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.

opencli-sitemap-author
Use when creating or maintaining OpenCLI site sitemaps: agent-facing navigation, page-state, action, workflow, API-reference, pitfall, and fallback knowledge for a website. Use after browser exploration discovers durable site context, when a sitemap is stale, or when promoting local site knowledge into the repo.
specification-writing
Write the full patent specification from claims and invention disclosure. Use when user says "撰写说明书", "write specification", "写说明书", "patent description", or wants to draft the complete patent specification.
training-check
Interactively monitor training metrics from the current Codex session, periodically checking WandB or fallback logs for NaN, divergence, plateaus, and broken runs.
golden-rss
Use when testing the rss golden build.
overleaf-sync
Two-way sync between a local paper directory and an Overleaf project, so ARIS audit/edit workflows stay on the local copy while collaborators edit in the Overleaf web UI. Use when user says "同步 overleaf", "overleaf sync", "推送到 overleaf", "connect overleaf", "Overleaf 桥接", "pull overleaf", "push overleaf", or wants to…
