A setup procedure for configuring a Mac's USB network connection to a Gemini PDA. It targets the PDA's left USB port and its USB network interface.

Use it to restore USB networking after reconnecting the cable, then SSH into or ping the Gemini PDA.

It helps when the Mac connects over USB but cannot reach the PDA because the network interface has only an automatic local address.

Per session 75 Skills are progressive disclosure: only the name and description are preloaded; the body loads when the skill is used.

When invoked 672 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.

Security scan B 1 finding. A grade says what 26 rules found in the file — not that it is safe.

Origin unknown No closer match found in the catalogue.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00075	$0.00672
Opus 5.5	$0.00030	$0.00269
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00015	$0.00134
Haiku 4.5	$0.00007	$0.00067

Security

Grade B, and why

gadget-mode scanned grade B 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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (gadget-mode.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Asks for rootmediumPrivilege escalation

A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

This still runs `sudo ifconfig <iface> inet 10.15.19.1 netmask 255.255.255.0

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.
