github-ssh-token-workflow is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from adityahimaone/hermes-agent-rtk-caveman. It costs 43 tokens per session (2,054 once invoked), scanned C, original, no licence file.

A GitHub access setup skill focused on SSH keys and access tokens. SSH keys authenticate Git operations, while tokens are needed for some GitHub CLI actions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create dedicated SSH keys, configure SSH rules, and decide when GitHub tokens or the gh command-line tool are required.
Why use it?

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 C, and why

github-ssh-token-workflow scanned grade C with 1 finding 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.

Reaches for credential fileshighPrivilege escalation

SSH keys, cloud credentials, git-credentials, .npmrc, /etc/shadow: reading these is how a config file becomes a credential leak.

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.
