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 | $0.00023 | $0.00404 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00162 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00081 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00040 |
Grade A, and why
find-skills 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 20d 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.
This is a copy
81% identical to find-skills — 138 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 — 35 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Find Skills
Use this workflow for skill discovery or installation requests. Ordinary requests to fix code, explain a concept, or build a feature do not require a skill search.
Discover
Check the available skill catalog first to avoid recommending a duplicate. Identify the requested capability and search for that workflow using the available registry or CLI, such as npx skills find <query>. Confirm the installed CLI's options before using version-dependent commands.
The skills directory can help locate candidates. A leaderboard is optional; popularity alone does not establish fit or quality.
Evaluate
Read a candidate's skill instructions and relevant scripts before recommending it. Check:
- Whether its trigger matches the requested workflow without attracting unrelated tasks.
- Whether it adds useful domain knowledge or executable resources beyond generic advice.
- Whether its tools, runtime, platforms, and installation layout fit the user's environment.
- Whether its approval rules and side effects preserve the user's scope and existing authorization.
- Whether its sources and maintenance history support the behavior it claims.
Prefer a small set of relevant candidates. Report material limitations and link to the actual source; do not invent install counts or treat star thresholds as a quality guarantee.
Install and Finish
Install when the user has requested or approved installation; reuse that authorization. Confirm the target location from the request and existing configuration instead of defaulting to global installation.
For Nix-managed skills, locate the maintained source and symlink scheme before writing. Avoid duplicate copies, edits inside the Nix store, or overwriting an existing customized skill. Check the installed result is discoverable and report what was added.
If no suitable skill is found, explain the gap. Continue any already-authorized underlying task with available capabilities; do not require the user to repeat that request. Creating a new skill is a separate option when a recurring workflow justifies it.
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.

find-skills is a skill published in the GitHub repository ahonn/dotfiles (63 stars, last pushed 6d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 23 tokens to every session and 404 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 81% identical to find-skills, differing in 138 lines, and is treated as a copy.
