Getting it into your agent
It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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 | $0.00051 | $0.05470 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00026 | $0.02735 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00010 | $0.01094 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00547 |
Grade A, and why
n2n-federation 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 9d 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 — 390 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
NetClaw-to-NetClaw (N2N) Federation
Elevate the NetClaw Mesh from route exchange to agent federation. Once two operators mutually consent, their claws exchange signed capability inventories, so you can ask your own NetClaw "does Nicholas's claw have CML?" and get an answer from locally cached inventory — no credentials or secrets ever leave either machine.
Uses the n2n-mcp server, which proxies the mesh daemon's /n2n/* API. The
daemon must run with N2N_ENABLED=true.
When to use
- An operator asks about a peer NetClaw's capabilities ("what can Byrn's claw do?", "does Nicholas have pyATS?", "what skills does he have that I don't?").
- An operator wants to federate with, or stop federating with, a mesh peer.
- An operator wants to control what their claw advertises to peers.
Workflow
1. Federate (mutual consent)
Both operators must consent before ANY capability information flows.
- Confirm the peer's AS and router-id out-of-band (e.g. in Slack) — this is the identity check, so verify it before consenting.
- Call
n2n_consent(peer_as=65007, router_id="7.7.7.7", display_name="Nicholas"). Optionally passhost/port(their ngrok endpoint) to dial immediately. - When the peer also consents, the NCFED channel opens and inventories exchange
automatically.
n2n_statusshows the peer flip tofederated.
2. Browse a peer's capabilities
n2n_peer_capabilities(peer="as65007-7.7.7.7")— their skills, MCP servers/tools, and badges (CML, pyATS, Meraki…), with inventory freshness. If the inventory is stale (peer offline past the refresh window), the answer says so.n2n_compare_capabilities(peer="as65007-7.7.7.7")— what they have that you don't, and vice versa.
3. Control what you advertise
n2n_set_visibility(item_type="mcp_server", item_name="cml-mcp", visibility="all_federated")to advertise a server;visibility="hidden"removes it from the advertised inventory entirely;visibility="selected_peers"withpeers="as65007-7.7.7.7"limits it. Defaults: both skills and MCP servers advertised to federated peers (names/tool-names only, never secrets); hide specific items with visibility=hidden.
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.

n2n-federation is a skill published in the GitHub repository automateyournetwork/netclaw (657 stars, last pushed 6d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 51 tokens to every session and 5,470 once invoked, about $0.0003 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 2026-09-03.
