ghg-carbon-calculator

ghg-carbon-calculator is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from aragaobruno/toolbelt. It costs 74 tokens per session (929 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A calculator for greenhouse-gas emissions, reported as metric tonnes of carbon-dioxide equivalent. It covers Scope 1 direct emissions, Scope 2 purchased energy, and Scope 3 value-chain emissions using GHG Protocol and IPCC factors.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to estimate company or project carbon footprints from fuel use, electricity bills, logistics, or cloud compute hours. It can also prepare emissions records aligned with ISO 14064-1.
Why use it?
It converts operational data such as fuel, electricity, transport, and cloud computing into a common emissions measure.

Token cost

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

ghg-carbon-calculator 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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/calculate_emissions.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

🌿 GHG Carbon Calculator & Footprint Engine

This skill equips AI agents with SRE-grade carbon accounting capabilities. It converts operational activity logs (fuel combustion, regional electricity grids, cloud IT compute core-hours, and logistics ton-kilometers) into verified metric tons of $CO_2$ equivalent ($tCO_2e$) based on GHG Protocol Corporate Standards and IPCC AR6 GWP100 factors.


🎯 When to Activate This Skill

Activate this skill when:

  • Quantifying corporate or project carbon footprints across Scope 1, Scope 2, and Scope 3 boundaries.
  • Calculating cloud infrastructure emissions (AWS, GCP, Azure) from vCPU/GPU compute hours.
  • Converting fleet fuel consumption or utility electricity bills into $tCO_2e$.
  • Generating ISO 14064-1 compliant GHG emissions manifests.

📐 GHG Protocol Scopes & Standard Emission Factors

1. Scope Boundaries

  • Scope 1 (Direct Emissions): Stationary and mobile fuel combustion (e.g., diesel, natural gas, gasoline).
  • Scope 2 (Indirect - Energy): Purchased electricity, steam, heating, and cooling (Location-based vs Market-based).
  • Scope 3 (Indirect - Value Chain): Purchased Goods, Cloud IT Data Centers, Business Travel, and Freight Logistics.

2. Standard IPCC AR6 GWP100 Conversion Factors

Category Unit Factor ($kgCO_2e / \text{unit}$) Source Baseline
Diesel Fuel Liter 2.6878 DEFRA / GHG Protocol
Gasoline / Petrol Liter 2.3149 DEFRA / GHG Protocol
Natural Gas $m^3$ 2.0213 DEFRA / IPCC AR6
Electricity (US Grid Avg) kWh 0.3850 EPA eGRID

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.

ghg-carbon-calculator is a skill published in the GitHub repository aragaobruno/toolbelt (2 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 74 tokens to every session and 929 once invoked, about $0.0004 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 2026-08-31.
