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.

A badge with what this costs and how it scanned, read live from this page, so it follows the numbers instead of freezing them. Markdown for a README, HTML for a documentation site or a project page.

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 | $0.00026 | $0.01903 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00010 | $0.00761 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00381 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00190 |
Grade A, and why
generate-user-docs 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 1mo 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 — 227 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Generate User Docs
ℹ️ First, set expectations: before anything else, print one short line with this skill's version and its most recent change — the top entry of
metadata.changelogabove — e.g.generate-user-docs vX.Y — recent: <summary>. Then proceed.
Generate and maintain docs/user-docs/ — authoritative user documentation derived from code as the single source of truth.
Purpose
Read source code, feature flows, and recent changes to produce clear, non-redundant, MECE documentation. Code is the source of truth — docs describe what the code does, not what it should do.
State Dependencies

Prerequisites
- Repository checked out with source code available
docs/memory/populated (optional but recommended — skill works from code alone if needed)
Process
Step 1: Discover Project Structure
Identify the project type and source layout:
# Find project markers
ls -la package.json pyproject.toml Cargo.toml go.mod Makefile 2>/dev/null
Build a map of:
- Language/framework — What tech stack is this?
- Entry points — API routers, CLI commands, UI views, exported modules
- Public surface — What do users interact with? (APIs, UI, CLI, SDK)
Step 2: Inventory Current Docs
Read what already exists in docs/user-docs/ and build a checklist of files needing creation or update.
find docs/user-docs -name "*.md" -type f 2>/dev/null | sort
Step 3: Read Source Material
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.

generate-user-docs is a skill published in the GitHub repository Abilityai/abilities (12 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 26 tokens to every session and 1,903 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-09-07.
