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.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00084 | $0.01218 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00042 | $0.00609 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00017 | $0.00244 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00008 | $0.00122 |
Grade A, and why
anta-validation 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 8d 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 110 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
ANTA validation — the assertion layer
Every other NetClaw source reads state. This one asserts on it and returns a verdict you can act on.

Which plane answers — read this before reaching for another server
Three servers touch Arista. They answer different questions, and picking the wrong one gives a confidently wrong answer.
| Plane | Server | Answers |
|---|---|---|
| Validation | this skill | does the state match what it should be — pass/fail |
| Management | arista-cvp-mcp |
what does CloudVision say — inventory, tags, compliance as CVP sees it |
| Device CLI | pyats-*, multivendor-cli |
what is the raw state — show-command output |
Use this skill to assert, not to fetch. If the question is "what is the interface MTU", that is the CLI plane. If the question is "is the MTU what it should be", that is this one.
The verdicts — five, and they never merge
| Verdict | Means | Never counts as |
|---|---|---|
pass |
tested, expectation held | — |
fail |
tested, expectation did not hold | — |
not_applicable |
the feature is not configured — nothing was tested | fail |
skipped |
ANTA declined to run it | pass |
error |
device unreachable or the run broke | fail |
not_applicable is the one that matters
ANTA natively reports a test for an unconfigured feature as a failure. Measured on a lab switch:
VerifyBGPPeerCount → failure
"'show bgp summary vrf all' failed on veos1: BGP inactive"
That device has no BGP at all. Reporting it as a failure claims a BGP fault where there is no
BGP. The server reclassifies it to not_applicable and keeps the original message.
When you report results: say "BGP: not applicable — this device does not run BGP", never "BGP test failed".
There is no health percentage, and you should not compute one
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.

anta-validation is a skill published in the GitHub repository automateyournetwork/netclaw (650 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 84 tokens to every session and 1,218 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 2026-08-30.
