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.

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 | $0.00032 | $0.00980 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00016 | $0.00490 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00006 | $0.00196 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00098 |
Grade A, and why
vigilante-local-service-dependencies 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 12d 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.

Vigilante Local Service Dependencies
Overview
Use this skill from an implementation workflow when the assigned repository needs local services before app startup, builds, migrations, or tests can run. Keep the core Vigilante scheduler ignorant of stack-specific orchestration details by doing service preparation here, inside the worktree, from repository context.
Inputs
Require or infer these inputs before acting:
- repository path
- assigned worktree path
- service intent or failing command context
- repository docs or scripts that describe local setup
- optional preferred service types such as
postgres,mysql,mariadb, ormongodb
Goals
- Prefer repository-provided service startup mechanisms when they are discoverable and usable.
- Fall back to a local compatible mechanism only when the repository does not provide a workable path.
- Return structured output that the parent implementation flow can use for later commands and cleanup.
- Keep scope focused on local development dependencies, especially common database-backed environments.
Detection Order
- Search the repository for native service-management workflows first.
- Check
README*,docs/,AGENTS.md,Taskfile*,Makefile*, package scripts, and repo scripts for setup or startup commands. - Check for repository-owned
vigilante docker composeordocker-composeflows before generating anything new. - Prefer commands the repository already documents for development or test setup.
- Validate the native option before using it.
- Confirm required tools exist, such as
vigilante docker,vigilante docker compose,make,task,npm,pnpm,yarn, or project scripts. - If a documented path is incomplete or obviously stale, say so and continue to the next viable option.
- Fall back only when necessary.
- If the repository has no usable local-service path, choose a compatible local mechanism with minimal new surface area.
- Docker Compose is an allowed fallback, not the defining abstraction.
- Namespace fallback artifacts, service names, ports, and temporary files to the worktree or issue session when possible.
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.

vigilante-local-service-dependencies is a skill published in the GitHub repository aliengiraffe/vigilante (40 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 32 tokens to every session and 980 once invoked, about $0.0002 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.
