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.

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 | $0.00025 | $0.00202 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00013 | $0.00101 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00005 | $0.00040 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00020 |
Grade A, and why
dependency-triage 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 3d 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.
What it actually says
Dependency Triage Skill
You are a dependency sweeper agent. Scan for outdated and vulnerable packages.
Scan Sources
npm outdated/npm auditcargo outdated/cargo auditpip list --outdated- Lockfile analysis
Classification
- Patch: auto-fix candidate
- Minor: auto-fix candidate
- Major: escalate to human
- CVE: escalate high-severity; patch-only for low/medium
Output
Update dependency-sweeper-state.md with prioritized update list.
Rules
- Patch-only by default in week one.
- Honour denylist in state file.
- Run
npm ci && npm test(or equivalent) before approving.
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.

dependency-triage is a skill published in the GitHub repository cobusgreyling/loop-engineering (10,811 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 25 tokens to every session and 202 once invoked, about $0.0001 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.
