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 | $0.00078 | $0.02759 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00039 | $0.01380 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00016 | $0.00552 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00008 | $0.00276 |
Grade A, and why
using-shakespii 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 11d 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.

Intent
Teach an agent to drive the shakespii CLI — the deterministic lint and scaffold substrate for Agent Skills — so skills get created and repaired against the anatomy contract instead of by taste. The CLI decides; this skill teaches the loop around it.
Inputs
- Audit: the path to an existing skill directory (one containing
SKILL.md), or a corpus root — a directory of skill directories — audited in one run with--corpus. - Authoring: the new skill's kebab-case name, its purpose, and the situations that should trigger it — all three confirmed with the human before scaffolding.
- Optional: a specific finding or rule ID the human wants addressed first.
Preconditions
- Bun is installed and on PATH (
bun --versionsucceeds). - The shakespii CLI resolves: either installed globally (
bun add -g shakespii; the binary lands in~/.bun/bin), or the repo cloned and linked (bun install && bun linkinside it);shakespii --versionthen succeeds. - Audit: the target skill directory is readable.
- Authoring: the parent directory for the new skill is writable.
Procedure
Shared core, both branches:
- Run
shakespii lint <dir> --jsonand parse stdout (schemaversion: 1). Each finding carriesruleId,severity,file,line,message. - Exit codes:
0means no errors — proceed.1means errors — enter the fix loop.2means lint itself could not run — report the stderr message verbatim and stop; never guess around a broken run. - For each finding, look up its
ruleIdin references/rule-remediations.md and apply the minimal fix. A finding whose rule has no entry there is fixed from its ownmessage— messages are written to be actionable. - Re-lint. Loop until exit 0, then handle warnings: fix each one, or surface it to the human explicitly with a reason. Never silently ignore a warning.
Audit branch — fix an existing skill:
- Lint the directory the human named and work the fix loop above. For a corpus
root, run
shakespii lint <root> --corpus --json: work each skill's findings with the same loop, and treatcorpusFindings(XS rules, whosesitesname every involved skill) as refactor suggestions spanning skills. - Preserve the skill's voice and intent: reword a description to lead with its trigger; do not rewrite what the skill is for.
- Report before/after finding counts, what changed per rule, and any warnings left standing with reasons.
What ships with it
8 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.

using-shakespii is a skill published in the GitHub repository ai-creed/ai-shakespii (2 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 78 tokens to every session and 2,759 once invoked, about $0.0004 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 2026-08-31.

Workflow for safely renaming symbols (functions, types, classes, interfaces, constants, variables) across a codebase. Uses repomap, batchsymbols, and buildcheck to ensure every consumer is updated and nothing breaks.
