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 | $0.00183 | $0.01502 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00092 | $0.00751 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00037 | $0.00300 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00018 | $0.00150 |
Grade A, and why
algolia-migration 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 4d 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 — 114 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Algolia API Client Migration
This skill covers API client upgrades (backend and frontend search-only builds). For frontend search UI, see instantsearch. For index operations, see algolia-cli.
Supported migrations
| Language | Migration | Reference |
|---|---|---|
| JavaScript | v4 → v5 | references/javascript.md |
| Python | v3 → v4 | references/python.md |
| Go | v3 → v4 | references/go.md |
| PHP | v3 → v4 | references/php.md |
| Java | v3 → v4 | references/java.md |
| C# | v6 → v7 | references/csharp.md |
| Ruby | v2 → v3 | references/ruby.md |
| Kotlin | v2 → v3 | references/kotlin.md |
| Scala | v1 → v2 | references/scala.md |
| Swift | v8 → v9 | references/swift.md |
Open the matching reference file before writing any migration code.
Universal breaking changes
Every language migration shares the same set of architectural shifts. Understand these first; the reference files add language-specific syntax on top.
1. initIndex is gone
The index object pattern is eliminated in every language. All methods moved to the client with indexName as an explicit parameter.
The fix: remove initIndex / init_index / index(withName:), call the method on the client, pass indexName.
Grep to find all affected call sites:
grep -r "initIndex\|init_index\|InitIndex\|index(withName" .
2. .wait() chaining is gone
Chained .wait() / ! bang methods on task responses are replaced by dedicated wait helpers.
| Old | New |
|---|---|
index.saveObjects(records).wait() |
client.waitForTask(...) with the index name and task ID |
index.save_objects!(objects) (Ruby) |
client.save_objects(index_name, objects, true) |
What ships with it
11 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-migration is a skill published in the GitHub repository algolia/skills (12 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 183 tokens to every session and 1,502 once invoked, about $0.0009 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.
