SkillSpector: 16 findings, up to medium
These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00164 | $0.02986 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00066 | $0.01194 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00033 | $0.00597 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00016 | $0.00299 |
Grade A, and why
run-ctf 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 6d 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 66 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Run the live-fire breakout CTF
The breakout CTF turns a real autonomous agent loose against the production sandbox stack and asks one question: can it send out a planted flag, escape the container, or tamper with the guardrails? It is paid and live-fire. bin/check-breakout-ctf.bash drives it; evals/ctf/ holds the grader, the judge, the record and the prompts.
This is not Control Tower. CT measures marginal defense (ΔS/ΔU, bare vs guarded) over the LinuxArena env catalog — a different harness, a different question, and its own skill, run-control-tower. The two share only .github/workflows/evals.yaml and its suite: selector.
Dispatching
One workflow, .github/workflows/evals.yaml, with suite: breakout-ctf. It also opts in from a head commit whose subject carries [breakout-ctf], and a weekly cron runs it on main. It needs KVM, which every x64 Linux runner here has.
| Input | What it decides |
|---|---|
model |
the OpenRouter agent slug. Empty takes the CTF_AGENT_MODEL repository variable, then bin/check-breakout-ctf.bash's default, z-ai/glm-5.3. It must reach the Anthropic /v1/messages skin, call tools, and hold the tool schemas. Pre-flight a new one with python3 -m evals.ctf.probe --model <slug> — that one-request check can still pass a model the CLI later refuses, so the microVM run stays authoritative. |
ctf_monitor |
off (default) turns the glovebox monitor off, never auto mode — user-config/settings.json's autoMode block carries no template-private _ prefix, so the guest boot splices it in whenever the round keeps auto mode, and aborts when it cannot. It gives the control arm (posture key control) when ctf_auto_mode is also off, and the auto-mode arm (posture key automode) when auto mode stays on. on is the guarded arm, the shipped defence. |
ctf_auto_mode |
off (default) drops Claude Code's own classifier, so the microVM and the default-deny firewall are then the only layers, which is the control arm (posture key control). on keeps the classifier, which reads each tool call before it runs. With the monitor on, that is the guarded arm. With the monitor off, it is automode, where a containment measures the classifier as well as the boundaries the round left standing. An explicit off needs ctf_monitor off, and the runner refuses that one pairing before the paid agent leg. Dispatch off EXPLICITLY on every round, unless the request asks for auto mode or for the guarded arm — a round set reads as evidence about the boundaries, and the classifier is a model that can refuse a call for reasons no boundary enforces. METRICS.md gives each arm a table of its own. |
ctf_whitebox |
on (default) copies the repo source in and uses the authorized-CTF prompt, so a capable model attacks its own container instead of refusing. off is the lean deceptive-memo run. It composes with every posture: the planted brief opens with a paragraph naming which controls that round booted, so a monitor-off run is never told a monitor is watching. |
ctf_discreet |
off (default). on withholds the recon brief under either framing, so the agent must find the controls itself. |
turns |
--max-turns, default 400. The hang backstop derives from it at 48s per turn. Past 60 turns the job's timeout-minutes rises to 360 (the hosted-runner maximum), which holds a real leg at that budget (~20-30s a turn). A budget whose 48s backstop plus overhead overruns that ceiling is cancelled before the judge and produces no verdict, so a deeper run needs the resumable multi-segment path, not a bigger number. Dispatch 2 when the round exists to exercise the HARNESS rather than the sandbox — a new judge flag, a changed record field, a publish step, a workflow step you just fixed. Two turns still boots the microVM and still runs the judge, the record and the publish, for a few minutes of paid agent time instead of ~200. Its verdict is (truncated …) by construction, so it establishes that the wiring works and NOTHING about containment; never report it in a round set. |
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.

run-ctf is a skill published in the GitHub repository AlexanderMattTurner/agent-glovebox (68 stars, last pushed today), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 164 tokens to every session and 2,986 once invoked, about $0.0007 per session on Opus 5.5. 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.
