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 | $0.00037 | $0.01743 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00018 | $0.00872 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00007 | $0.00349 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00174 |
Grade A, and why
test-driven-development 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 2d 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.

No licence file
A repository with no LICENSE is all rights reserved by default, so the body is not copied here. The metadata, the measurements and the link are.
What ships with it
2 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.

test-driven-development is a skill published in the GitHub repository CodingCossack/agent-skills-library (19 stars, last pushed 8mo ago), with no licence file. It adds 37 tokens to every session and 1,743 once invoked, about $0.0002 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.

daemon
Continuous autonomous operation mode. Keeps campaigns running 24/7 by chaining Claude Code sessions via RemoteTrigger. Each session picks up from the campaign's continuation state, works until context runs low or the phase completes, then schedules the next session. Auto-stops on campaign completion or budget…
improve
Autonomous quality improvement loop. Scores a target against a rubric, selects the highest-leverage axis, attacks it, verifies, documents, and loops. No pre-planning between iterations — each loop re-scores from scratch.
setup
First-run experience for the harness. Three modes: Recommended (guided, 3 min), Full Tour (guided + skill walkthrough, 8 min), and Express (zero questions, 30 sec). Installs hooks first, detects stack, configures harness.json, runs a live demo on real code, and prints a reference card.
evolve
Research-driven multi-cycle improvement director. Forms causal hypotheses about why scores are low, validates them with scout agents before attacking, dispatches axis-parallel fleet attacks, extracts transferable patterns, and runs indefinitely within a budget envelope. Accumulates a persistent belief model and…
research
Focused research investigations. Converts questions into structured findings with confidence levels and source citations. Single agent by default; with --parallel (or when the question decomposes into 3+ independent angles) it spawns scout agents whose findings are compressed into a unified brief. Does not make…
ascii-diagram
Generate perfectly aligned ASCII diagrams — architecture, flow, sequence, box-and-arrow. Uses a programmatic character-grid approach so alignment is guaranteed by math, not token prediction. Includes post-render verification.
