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.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00146 | $0.01902 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00058 | $0.00761 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00029 | $0.00380 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00015 | $0.00190 |
Grade A, and why
upwork-job-qualifier 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 2mo 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 — 95 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Upwork Job Qualifier
Every proposal costs Connects, and the platform's own AI will never tell a freelancer to keep their money: application volume is the platform's revenue. This skill's whole job is the advice that structurally cannot come from inside: when not to apply. Method extracted from a Top Rated Plus freelancer's real invitation ledger and vetting decisions, plus Upwork's own published scam and client-screening guidance.
Inputs
- The job post, pasted in full.
- The "About the client" panel, pasted: payment verified or not, total spent, number of hires, average hourly rate paid, hire rate, member-since date, and the category the job is filed under. This panel decides more verdicts than the job text does. If the user didn't paste it, ask for it before ruling.
- The user's rate and niche, so the math below has a reference point.
Profile shortcut: if a stored profile file exists (upwork-profile.md in the working directory or ~/.claude/), read rate and niche from it and ask only for what's missing or not stated concretely (a rate line that says "ask me" means ask).
Instant skips (any one of these ends the evaluation)
- Any request to pay a fee, buy anything, do unpaid test work, or accept payment outside Upwork.
- Pressure to move communication off-platform before a contract exists.
- Requests for personal information beyond a normal work discussion.
- Payment not verified AND no spend history, on a job promising premium rates.
- A post with no scope, no budget signal, and careless writing throughout. Vague titles with empty descriptions are the fake-post signature.
The client-history cross-check (the highest-value move)
Job titles are marketing. The client's history is data. Run the math:
- Spend per hire: total spent divided by hires. A "specialist" job from a client averaging under $100 per hire is a low-tier gig wearing a nice title.
- Average hourly rate paid vs the user's rate. A client who has paid $8/hr across twelve hires will not pay $80/hr for hire thirteen.
- Category coherence: a premium-sounding title filed under General Virtual Assistance, with data-entry skill tags, is telling the truth in the metadata and lying in the title. Trust the metadata.
- On invitations: the personalized note carries no signal. Invite notes are often templated. The client's posting history is the signal; the flattery is not.
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.
