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 5.1 | $0.00101 | $0.03424 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00051 | $0.01712 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00020 | $0.00685 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00010 | $0.00342 |
Grade C, and why
alibabacloud-cli-guidance scanned grade C with 2 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.

Aliyun CLI Expert
Guide for managing Alibaba Cloud resources using the aliyun command-line tool.
MCP Tools vs Local CLI Execution
IMPORTANT: This skill provides CLI command knowledge and syntax guidance. It does
NOT mean you should always run aliyun commands locally in the shell.
Execution priority:
-
MCP tools (highest priority) — When
AlibabaCloud___CallCLIand other MCP tools are available, always use them for API execution. MCP tools handle authentication, cross-account access (x_assume_account_id), and output filtering (x_output_jmespath_filter) without requiring local CLI installation or configuration. -
Local CLI (fallback) — Only use local
aliyuncommands in the Bash tool when:- MCP tools are not available or not configured
- The operation requires local file system access (e.g.,
aliyun oss cp,aliyun ossutil sync) - The user explicitly asks for a local CLI command to copy/paste or use in scripts
- The user needs to install/configure the CLI itself
Use this skill's knowledge for:
- Understanding correct command syntax when calling
AlibabaCloud___CallCLI - Generating CLI commands via
AlibabaCloud___GenerateCLICommand - Knowing the difference between plugin-style and built-in-style commands
- Understanding parameter naming conventions (especially
--biz-prefixes) - Troubleshooting CLI errors returned by MCP or local execution
- Guiding users who want to run commands locally in their own terminals
Pivot to alibabacloud-find-skills when: the user's request reads as a
solution pattern (batch ops, audits, rotations, scheduled cleanup, runbooks)
or targets a product not covered by any in-plugin skill — a packaged official
skill usually beats hand-rolled CLI sequences. See mcp-core-best-practices
→ Skill Discovery for the full trigger list.
Agent Execution: AI-mode and User-Agent
Only applicable when running aliyun commands locally (not via MCP tools).

What ships with it
4 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.

alibabacloud-cli-guidance is a skill published in the GitHub repository aliyun/alibabacloud-agent-toolkit (21 stars, last pushed today), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 101 tokens to every session and 3,424 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it C with 2 findings (downloads and executes remote code, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
