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 | $0.00094 | $0.01090 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00047 | $0.00545 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00019 | $0.00218 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00109 |
Grade D, and why
rclone scanned grade D with 3 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 2d 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.
Asks for rootmediumPrivilege escalation
A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

95% identical to rclone — 12 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 161 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
rclone File Transfer Skill
Setup Check (Always Run First)
Before any rclone operation, verify installation and configuration:
# Check if rclone is installed
command -v rclone >/dev/null 2>&1 && echo "rclone installed: $(rclone version | head -1)" || echo "NOT INSTALLED"
# List configured remotes
rclone listremotes 2>/dev/null || echo "NO REMOTES CONFIGURED"
If rclone is NOT installed
Guide the user to install:
# macOS
brew install rclone
# Linux (script install)
curl https://rclone.org/install.sh | sudo bash
# Or via package manager
sudo apt install rclone # Debian/Ubuntu
sudo dnf install rclone # Fedora
If NO remotes are configured
Walk the user through interactive configuration:
rclone config

Common Operations
Upload single file
rclone copy /path/to/file.mp4 remote:bucket/path/ --progress
Upload directory
rclone copy /path/to/folder remote:bucket/folder/ --progress
Sync directory (mirror, deletes removed files)
rclone sync /local/path remote:bucket/path/ --progress
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.
- 2d ago First seen · 161 lines · 94 tokens per session scan D 5ee2891c70cb
rclone is a skill published in the GitHub repository aegntic/compound-engineering (2 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 94 tokens to every session and 1,090 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it D with 3 findings (asks for root, downloads and executes remote code, makes network calls). It is 95% identical to rclone, differing in 12 lines, and is treated as a copy.
