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 | $0.00087 | $0.02892 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00044 | $0.01446 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00017 | $0.00578 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00289 |
Grade A, and why
torch_npu 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.

No licence file
A repository with no LICENSE is all rights reserved by default, so the body is not copied here. The metadata, the measurements and the link are.
What ships with it
7 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.

torch_npu is a skill published in the GitHub repository ascend-ai-coding/awesome-ascend-skills (167 stars, last pushed today), with no licence file. It adds 87 tokens to every session and 2,892 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 2026-09-05.
Other skills, from other repositories
spark-environment-setup
Set up a working ML training/inference environment on NVIDIA DGX Spark (GB10, aarch64, CUDA 13). Use when installing PyTorch/Unsloth/TRL/vLLM on DGX Spark, hitting libcudart or wheel-ABI errors on aarch64, or choosing between NGC containers and bare pip installs.
spark-memory-thermal-ops
Manage unified memory and thermals during long-running ML jobs on NVIDIA DGX Spark. Use when planning memory headroom for a training run on GB10, when a job OOMs on unified memory, or when monitoring temperature and power during multi-hour training.
spark-training-gotchas
Preflight and diagnose the ten known failure modes for ML training on NVIDIA DGX Spark. Use when a training run on DGX Spark fails to start, OOMs below the 128GB limit, slows down mid-run, or before any multi-hour training job on GB10.
llama-cpp
Runs LLM inference on CPU, Apple Silicon, and consumer GPUs without NVIDIA hardware. Use for edge deployment, M1/M2/M3 Macs, AMD/Intel GPUs, or when CUDA is unavailable. Supports GGUF quantization (1.5-8 bit) for reduced memory and 4-10× speedup vs PyTorch on CPU.
minicpm5-deploy-vllm-ascend
Deploy MiniCPM5-2B with vLLM on Huawei Ascend NPU using vLLM-Ascend. Use when the user mentions vLLM-Ascend, Ascend NPU, Huawei Ascend, CANN, torchnpu, davinci devices, or wants an OpenAI-compatible MiniCPM5 server on Ascend hardware.
amc-run-video-calibration
Calibrates pre-recorded cam.mp4 datasets through the AutoMagicCalib REST API. Use for user-supplied local MP4s; route live RTSP streams to amc-run-rtsp-calibration.
