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.

SkillSpector: 2 findings, up to high
These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →
- high Memory Poisoning · line 293 Skill manipulates agent memory, state, or stored context. Memory corruption can alter personality, override safety rules, or cause unpredictable behavior.Fix: Protect agent memory and state from modification by untrusted content. Use read-only memory for critical instructions and validate all state changes.
- medium Excessive Agency · line 404 Skill enables autonomous high-impact decisions without human-in-the-loop verification. Critical operations (destructive commands, financial transactions, data deletion) should require explicit user confirmation.Fix: Add human-in-the-loop confirmation for destructive, irreversible, or high-impact operations. Never auto-execute commands that modify files, send data, or alter system state.
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 | $0.00096 | $0.05687 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00048 | $0.02844 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00019 | $0.01137 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00010 | $0.00569 |
Grade A, and why
documentary-montage-production 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 13d 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 — 452 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Documentary Montage Production
Use this skill when the deliverable asks the viewer to believe, understand, or feel the significance of real people, real events, real institutions, or real-world claims. The central rule is: do not let the audience become more certain than the evidence allows.
This is not legal advice. Treat rights, defamation, privacy, platform-policy, election, medical, financial, public-safety, and vulnerable-subject issues as escalation triggers for the appropriate human editor, client approver, platform owner, or counsel.
Non-negotiable documentary posture
Separate five things in every decision:
- Documented fact: directly supported by a logged source.
- Corroborated interpretation: a reasonable conclusion from multiple logged sources.
- Participant testimony: attributed lived experience or opinion, not universal proof.
- Illustration or reenactment: visual support that is not evidence.
- Editorial thesis: the argument the piece makes from the above.
If a shot, sound cue, texture, caption, edit, or generated image makes category 3, 4, or 5 look like category 1, revise it.
Start with an evidence-first brief
Before writing a script or making prompts, create a working brief with:
- Thesis: one sentence the piece can fairly support.
- Audience and release context: platform, geography, client, advocacy/commercial/newsroom/nonprofit context, and expected scrutiny.
- Core claims: the 3-7 factual claims the piece depends on.
- Human stakes: whose life, community, work, property, reputation, or safety is affected.
- Evidence map: source status for each claim: verified, needs corroboration, contested, or must cut.
- Rights/disclosure map: what footage, photos, voices, logos, documents, maps, music, and generated media will require permission, attribution, label, or review.
- Sensitivity level: routine, sensitive, high-risk, or legal/editorial review required.
Useful thesis test: "Because [documented change/conflict], [specific people/place/system] now faces [specific consequence]." If the thesis only says "this is shocking" or "you won't believe," it is not yet documentary-grade.
What ships with it
1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
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.

documentary-montage-production is a skill published in the GitHub repository calesthio/generative-media-skills (170 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 96 tokens to every session and 5,687 once invoked, about $0.0005 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.
