emmy: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/discover-models/SKILL.md

discover-models is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from cloudrift-ai/emmy. It costs 77 tokens per session (2,079 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A read-only workflow for finding recently released or popular open machine-learning models and matching them to suitable GPUs. It can also review which existing model recipes still deserve attention.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to discover models, score their current priority, map them to GPU configurations, and select candidates for the model-onboarding workflow.
Why use it?
It narrows a large stream of models into a ranked shortlist without touching servers. This helps decide which models are worth benchmarking or keeping in a maintained recipe set.

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one. Also seen: mentions subagents; installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents).

This is cloudrift-ai/emmy's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on emmy itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything emmy configures →

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is ./venv/bin/python scripts/new_models.py --arena --workers 4 --json > /tmp/new_models.json.

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

discover-models 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 16d 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.

Discover Models to Explore

Turn "what models are worth our GPU hours?" into a shortlist or a refresh of Emmy's recipe lifecycle. New open-weight models are filtered to the ones with real demand and mapped to the GPU platforms they fit. Every recipe gets a 0-100 heat score for current onboarding priority; the maintained set stays small and focused, other useful recipes stay best-effort, and only technically superseded or unusable models become obsolete.

Research is keyless and read-only: public OpenRouter and Hugging Face endpoints plus web search. No server is touched and no recipe is edited — the workflow applies a validated lifecycle manifest, and onboard-model owns deployment and qualification. In automated mode, the agent may create or edit only recipe-local DISCOVERY.md notes to retain research behind its decisions.

Reddit discussions ─┼→ reconcile exact models → score heat → VRAM fit → GPU platform → hardware/model matrix
OpenRouter/Arena ───┘

Choose the mode

Automated lifecycle mode (GitHub Actions): read prompts/discover-models/lifecycle.md and prompts/discover-models/score-recipes.md and the recipe-local DISCOVERY.md notes supplied in the task before research. lifecycle.md is the whole contract — task payload, delegation to the source, scorer, and fit subagents, selection rules, and output JSON — and this skill adds only the background below. Ask no questions, never rebuild the inventory the task supplies, and return the selection as soon as the evidence supports it. The workflow runs the agent on a checkout of main and commits the validated manifest and any changed research note itself; the agent never touches git.

Survey mode (interactive): produce a shortlist and a hardware/model matrix. Ask only what the user has not implied:

  • Time window — default the script's ~90 days; widen with --since 2026-01-01.
  • Modality — include multimodal by default; --text-only if they serve only text.
  • Target hardware — default every GPU in emmy/gpu.py; bucket only for a subset they name.
  • Finalists — default 5-8, spread across hardware tiers.

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.
