Token cost

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

firefox-extension-dev 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

Firefox Extension Development References

This skill provides reference files for the firefox-extension-dev agent. The agent handles all active development work (scaffolding, coding, debugging, publishing). These reference files serve as its knowledge base.

Reference Files

  • references/browser-api-reference.md - Complete list of all 51 browser.* APIs with methods, events, and permissions
  • references/manifest-schema.md - Full manifest.json key reference with MV2/MV3 examples
  • references/amo-publishing.md - AMO publishing checklist, review policies, CSP, security best practices, i18n
  • references/mdn-api-urls.md - Direct MDN URL index for all browser.* APIs, manifest keys, and Extension Workshop resources
  • references/best-practices.md - Best practices, pitfalls, and anti-patterns: JS patterns, Workers, sessions, startup, security, performance, cross-browser
Files

What ships with it

5 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.
