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 | $0.00060 | $0.03744 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00024 | $0.01498 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00012 | $0.00749 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00374 |
Grade A, and why
managing-vulnerabilities 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 2mo 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.

Vulnerability Management
Implement comprehensive vulnerability detection and remediation workflows across containers, source code, dependencies, and running applications. This skill covers multi-layer scanning strategies, SBOM generation (CycloneDX and SPDX), risk-based prioritization using CVSS/EPSS/KEV, and CI/CD security gate patterns.
When to Use This Skill
Invoke this skill when:
- Building security scanning into CI/CD pipelines
- Generating Software Bills of Materials (SBOMs) for compliance
- Prioritizing vulnerability remediation using risk-based approaches
- Implementing security gates (fail builds on critical vulnerabilities)
- Scanning container images before deployment
- Detecting secrets, misconfigurations, or code vulnerabilities
- Establishing DevSecOps practices and automation
- Meeting regulatory requirements (SBOM mandates, Executive Order 14028)
Multi-Layer Scanning Strategy
Vulnerability management requires scanning at multiple layers. Each layer detects different types of security issues.
Layer Overview
Container Image Scanning
- Detects vulnerabilities in OS packages, language dependencies, and binaries
- Tools: Trivy (comprehensive), Grype (accuracy-focused), Snyk Container (commercial)
- When: Every container build, base image selection, registry admission control
SAST (Static Application Security Testing)
- Analyzes source code for security flaws before runtime
- Tools: Semgrep (fast, semantic), Snyk Code (developer-first), SonarQube (enterprise)
- When: Every commit, PR checks, main branch protection
DAST (Dynamic Application Security Testing)
- Tests running applications for vulnerabilities (black-box testing)
- Tools: OWASP ZAP (open-source), StackHawk (CI/CD native), Burp Suite (manual + automated)
- When: Staging environment testing, API validation, authentication testing
SCA (Software Composition Analysis)
- Analyzes third-party dependencies for known vulnerabilities
- Tools: Dependabot (GitHub native), Renovate (advanced), Snyk Open Source (commercial)
- When: Every build, dependency updates, license audits

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.

managing-vulnerabilities is a skill published in the GitHub repository ancoleman/ai-design-components (530 stars, last pushed 11mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 60 tokens to every session and 3,744 once invoked, about $0.0002 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.
