web-resource-fetch-fallbacks

web-resource-fetch-fallbacks is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Bitbull-Ideas/hermes.skills. It costs 34 tokens per session (2,841 once invoked), scanned A, original, AGPL-3.0.

A fallback procedure for downloading information from an unfamiliar website. It tries ordinary text-based HTTP first, then a Chromium browser controlled by Playwright, and finally a CloakBrowser connection when needed.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when a web resource is difficult to retrieve, especially when a normal HTTP request fails and browser rendering or a stealthier browser connection may be required.
Why use it?
Some websites block simple requests or require JavaScript to display their content. An ordered set of methods gives the agent alternative ways to fetch the same resource.

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

web-resource-fetch-fallbacks 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 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.

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.
