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.

SkillSpector: 1 finding, 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 →
- medium Excessive Agency · line 187 Skill enables autonomous high-impact decisions without human-in-the-loop verification. Critical operations (destructive commands, financial transactions, data deletion) should require explicit user confirmation.Fix: Add human-in-the-loop confirmation for destructive, irreversible, or high-impact operations. Never auto-execute commands that modify files, send data, or alter system state.
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 | $0.00166 | $0.03112 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00066 | $0.01245 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00033 | $0.00622 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00017 | $0.00311 |
Grade A, and why
algolia-cli 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 1mo 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.

Algolia CLI
Manage Algolia search infrastructure from the terminal using the algolia CLI.
When to Use This Skill vs. algolia-mcp
| Need | Use |
|---|---|
| Write/modify data (import, delete, update records) | algolia-cli (this skill) |
| Manage configuration (settings, rules, synonyms) | algolia-cli (this skill) |
| Auth (login, logout, signup via OAuth) | algolia-cli (this skill) |
| Admin operations (API keys, profiles, index copy/move) | algolia-cli (this skill) |
| Backup/restore indices | algolia-cli (this skill) |
| Search queries and view results | algolia-mcp |
| Analytics (top searches, click rates, no-results) | algolia-mcp |
| Recommendations (related products, trending) | algolia-mcp |
Rule of thumb: If the user wants to read or analyze data → algolia-mcp. If they want to change, move, or manage data → algolia-cli.
Setup
Run /algolia-cli:cli-setup to install the CLI and configure a profile, or follow Getting Started.
Tip: algolia auth login is the easiest way to set up credentials — it handles OAuth sign-in and profile creation in one step. Use algolia profile add for non-interactive / CI setups where you already have an API key.
Command Quick Reference
Auth
| Task | Command |
|---|---|
| Sign in (opens browser) | algolia auth login |
| Sign in (select app by name) | algolia auth login --app-name "My App" --default |
| Sign in (no browser / SSH) | algolia auth login --no-browser |
| Sign out | algolia auth logout |
| Create new account | algolia auth signup |
Profile
| Task | Command |
|---|---|
| Add profile (non-interactive) | algolia profile add --name "default" --app-id "<ID>" --api-key "<KEY>" --default |
| List profiles | algolia profile list |
| Remove a profile | algolia profile remove "<name>" -y |
| Set default profile | algolia profile setdefault "<name>" |
What ships with it
5 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.

algolia-cli is a skill published in the GitHub repository algolia/skills (12 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 166 tokens to every session and 3,112 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.
