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 | $0.00031 | $0.01156 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00012 | $0.00462 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00231 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00116 |
Grade A, and why
cisco-ucs-ta-setup 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 29d 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.

Cisco UCS TA Setup
Prerequisites
| Tool or access | Purpose | Verify |
|---|---|---|
Bash and curl |
Run setup and REST configuration helpers | command -v bash curl |
| Splunk administrative access | Install the TA and configure tasks | Confirm search-tier REST access |
| UCS Manager account | Poll the selected domain | Store its password in a protected file |

│ Preflight │ → │ Install TA │ → │ Configure tasks│ → │ Validate data │
└───────────┘ └────────────┘ └────────────────┘ └───────────────┘
When to Activate
- Onboard a Cisco UCS Manager or Fabric Interconnect domain.
- Configure server records, default/custom templates, or
cisco_ucs_taskinputs. - Diagnose missing
cisco:ucsevents or task failures.
Scope
This skill configures the Splunk add-on and task schedule. It does not change UCS infrastructure, request passwords in chat, or enable overlapping tasks without considering API and ingestion load.
Examples
Install the Cisco UCS add-on through the reviewed package path:
bash skills/cisco-ucs-ta-setup/scripts/setup.sh --install
Expected output: the package is installed or a topology-specific manual handoff is emitted without configuring a UCS password inline.
Run strict completion checks after configuring a task:
bash skills/cisco-ucs-ta-setup/scripts/validate.sh --completion
Expected output: package, server, task, index, cisco:ucs event, and dashboard
handoff checks report [PASS] or exit nonzero.
Troubleshooting
| Issue | Cause | Resolution |
|---|---|---|
| UCS login fails | Host, username, or protected password is wrong | Verify the account outside chat and retry |
| Task has no events | Template/domain access is incomplete | Review template and logs |
| API load is high | Tasks overlap or poll too frequently | Reduce task scope or increase intervals |
| No TA dashboards | TA supplies collection/parsing | Validate consuming content |
What ships with it
7 files 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.
