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 | $0.00024 | $0.00501 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00012 | $0.00251 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00005 | $0.00100 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00050 |
Grade A, and why
docker-compose-launch 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 5d 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.

Docker Compose Launch
Overview
Use this skill only when the selected implementation workflow explicitly needs local services before app startup, migrations, or tests can run. Keep all service startup scoped to the assigned worktree and treat Docker Compose as a reusable helper for local implementation and test dependencies only.
Invocation Contract
The parent implementation skill should pass or infer this contract before acting:
required:trueorfalseworktree_path: absolute path to the assigned worktreeservice_types: one or more ofmysql,mariadb,postgres, ormongodbreason: short explanation of which app, package, migration, or test command needs the servicespreferred_mechanism: repository-native compose file, repo script, or fallback compose generation
If required is false, return status: not_needed and do nothing else.
Execution Rules
- Prefer repository-owned
docker-compose.yml,docker-compose.yaml,compose.yml, orcompose.yamlfiles before generating new files. - Prefer repository scripts or task-runner commands that already wrap Compose when they are documented and usable.
- Namespace any generated project name, file, network, volume, or container identifiers to the assigned worktree.
- Wait for service readiness before reporting success.
- Surface the exact startup and teardown commands that were used.
Structured Result
Return a concise structured summary using these fields:
status:ready,not_needed, orfailedservices: services that were started or detectedmechanism:repo_compose,repo_script, orgenerated_fallbackcommands: startup, readiness, and teardown commandsconnection: host, port, database, username, URL, or env hints when availablecleanup: explicit stop command, ornoneartifacts: compose files or env files created or reusednotes: concise caveats or follow-up steps
Guardrails
- Do not launch services outside the assigned worktree scope.
- Do not assume every repository needs Docker Compose.
- Do not replace a documented repository-native startup flow with a generated one unless the native path is unusable.
- Do not claim success until the requested service is accepting connections.
What ships with it
1 file 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.

docker-compose-launch is a skill published in the GitHub repository aliengiraffe/vigilante (39 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 24 tokens to every session and 501 once invoked, about $0.0001 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.
