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 | $0.00032 | $0.00427 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00016 | $0.00214 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00006 | $0.00085 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00043 |
Grade A, and why
security-status-report 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 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.
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
Task
Generate a security status report by evaluating threats listed in docs/threats.json.
Workflow
- Copy
.agents/skills/security-status-report/scripts/template_dispatch.pyto.agents/scratch/security-status-report/template_dispatch.py. - Complete the TODO in
.agents/scratch/security-status-report/template_dispatch.py, meeting the following requirements: a. Iterate over each threat fromdocs/threats.jsonto produce a list of invocations that matches your tool for invoking sub-agents. b. Each invocation must address a single threat, use the below prompt, and instruct the sub-agent to output the correct schema. - Execute the script from the repository root, specifying
.agents/scratch/security-status-report/subagents.jsonas the output file argument (python3 .agents/scratch/security-status-report/template_dispatch.py .agents/scratch/security-status-report/subagents.json). - Read
.agents/scratch/security-status-report/subagents.jsonand copy its exact JSON array into your tool for invoking subagents. DO NOT manually craft or bypass the invocations. Run ALL generated sub-agents concurrently in a single tool call by default unless bound by model rate limits or harness concurrency limits (use batching intelligently if needed). You already updated the script in step 2 to output exactly what you need, so no modifications to the output should be necessary unless you made a mistake or hit limits. - Wait for all sub-agents to complete.
- Run
python3 .agents/skills/security-status-report/scripts/compile_report.py docs/threats.json .agents/scratch/security-status-report .agents/scratch/security-status-report/final.jsonto produce the final report. - Run
python3 .agents/skills/security-status-report/scripts/render_chart.py .agents/scratch/security-status-report/final.json .agents/scratch/security-status-report/chart.pngto render a bar chart of the scores.
What ships with it
3 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.
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.

security-status-report is a skill published in the GitHub repository agent-substrate/substrate (1,703 stars, last pushed today), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 32 tokens to every session and 427 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 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 2026-08-30.
