haystack-rag

haystack-rag is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from bidewio/better-openclaw. It costs 14 tokens per session (277 once invoked), scanned A, original, no licence file.

A guide to building production-ready RAG pipelines with Haystack. RAG, or retrieval-augmented generation, lets an AI find relevant information before generating an answer.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to build RAG pipelines with Haystack for searching information and supplying it to AI models.
Why use it?
It helps AI applications use retrieved documents or data to provide answers based on an external knowledge source.

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

haystack-rag scanned grade A with 1 finding 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.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

A licence we could not identify

The repository carries a LICENSE file, but it is custom or dual enough that GitHub cannot name it and neither can this catalogue. Unknown terms are not permission, so the body is not copied here. Read the licence at the source and decide for yourself.

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.
