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 5.1 | $0.00135 | $0.01212 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00054 | $0.00485 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00027 | $0.00242 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00014 | $0.00121 |
Grade A, and why
outlier-cli 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 today.
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 — 101 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
<quick_start>
The outlier CLI follows this pattern:
outlier <command-group> <action> [arguments] [options]
| Task | Command |
|---|---|
| Configure authentication credentials | outlier auth login |
| Clear stored credentials and browser sessions | outlier auth logout |
| Create a new profile from .env.example template | outlier auth profiles create <NAME> |
| Delete a profile and its data | outlier auth profiles delete <NAME> |
| Get details for a specific profile | outlier auth profiles get <NAME> |
| List all profiles and show their auth types and active state | outlier auth profiles list |
| Delete a profile and its data | outlier auth profiles remove <NAME> |
| Rename a profile, re-keying its secrets to the new profile name | outlier auth profiles rename <OLD> <NEW> |
| Activate a profile within its auth type | outlier auth profiles select <NAME> |
| Check authentication status across profiles | outlier auth status |
| Test authentication by verifying credentials work across profiles | outlier auth test |
| Remove all cached responses | outlier cache clear |
| Show queue state, including why the queue is empty when it is | outlier queue status |
| Get full detail for a single queued assignment | outlier tasks get <TASK_ID> |
| List the work assignments currently queued for this Outlier account | outlier tasks list |
| </quick_start> |
<essential_principles>
MANDATORY: Verify the live command shape before executing ANY outlier command.
Consult usage.json when the repo or installed package ships it. If usage.json is absent, use outlier --help, the relevant subcommand --help, and README.md instead. Never guess at command syntax.
Do NOT ask Adam for an Outlier password, look for one in LastPass, or create a secret-manager entry for Outlier — none exists. Do NOT drive a separate browser surface to log in; the CLI's own persistent profile is the session of record.
auth login needs two things: ACCOUNT_EMAIL in
~/.local/share/cli-tools/outlier/.env, and an authenticated google CLI for
that mailbox.
Observed values include KYCInfoCollection, PaySetup, TaxSetup
(all rendered by Outlier as "please complete the required pay setup"),
AccountVerification, PausedProject, NoTasks, and
NoTasksMatchingSpecializations.
As of 2026-09-02 this account reports KYCInfoCollection: the queue stays
empty until a human completes identity/pay setup, which needs government ID,
tax, and payout details. Never automate that step.
What ships with it
1 file 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.
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.

outlier-cli is a skill published in the GitHub repository adbertram/cli-tools (6 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 135 tokens to every session and 1,212 once invoked, about $0.0005 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 2026-11-07.
