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 | $0.00011 | $0.02070 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00828 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00414 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00001 | $0.00207 |
Grade A, and why
dependency-audit 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.

Dependency Audit Skill
Structured workflow for scanning dependencies, checking for CVEs, assessing upgrade difficulty, generating upgrade task files with compatibility testing plans, and tracking deprecation timelines.
Workflow
Step 1: Inventory Dependencies
Scan the project for all dependency manifests:
| File | Ecosystem | Scan Command |
|---|---|---|
go.mod / go.sum |
Go | go list -m all |
package.json / package-lock.json |
Node.js | npm ls --all |
yarn.lock |
Node.js (Yarn) | yarn list |
pnpm-lock.yaml |
Node.js (pnpm) | pnpm ls --depth Infinity |
requirements.txt / pyproject.toml |
Python | pip list |
Cargo.toml / Cargo.lock |
Rust | cargo tree |
Dockerfile |
Container base images | Parse FROM lines |
docker-compose.yml |
Service images | Parse image fields |
.github/workflows/*.yml |
GitHub Actions | Parse uses fields |
For each dependency, record:
- Name: Package/module name
- Current version: What's installed
- Latest version: What's available
- Version gap: How many major/minor/patch versions behind
- Direct vs transitive: Is it a direct dependency or pulled in transitively?
- License: License type (MIT, Apache-2.0, GPL, etc.)
Output: Dependency inventory table sorted by version gap (largest first).
Step 2: Vulnerability Scan
Run vulnerability scanners for each ecosystem:
Go:
# Built-in vulnerability database
go install golang.org/x/vuln/cmd/govulncheck@latest
govulncheck ./...
# Module verification
go mod verify
Node.js:
# npm audit with JSON output for parsing
npm audit --json
# Or with yarn
yarn audit --json
# Or with Snyk (if available)
snyk test --json
Container Images:
# Trivy for container scanning (if available)
trivy image {image-name}
# Or grype
grype {image-name}
GitHub Actions:
# Check for pinned versions vs floating tags
# Grep for uses: without @sha
For each vulnerability found, record:
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.

dependency-audit is a skill published in the GitHub repository ashtonian/llm-init (2 stars, last pushed 6d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 11 tokens to every session and 2,070 once invoked, about $0.0000 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 2026-08-31.
