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 | $0.00032 | $0.00231 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00016 | $0.00115 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00006 | $0.00046 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00023 |
Grade A, and why
api-services 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.
This is a copy
100% identical to api-services — 0 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.
What it actually says
Overview
Service providers are exported from @cyanheads/mcp-ts-core/services. These are documented here for servers that use the built-in providers.
All services follow the init/accessor pattern: initialized in setup(), accessed at request time via lazy accessor. See the add-service skill for the full pattern.

What ships with it
3 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.

api-services is a skill published in the GitHub repository cyanheads/reference-data-mcp-server (1 stars, last pushed 8d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 32 tokens to every session and 231 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 100% identical to api-services, differing in 0 lines, and is treated as a copy.
Other skills, from other repositories
tool-prompt-optimization
Optimize the description prompts an AI agent reads to learn its built-in tools (the .md files under prompts/tools/). Two halves: (1) measure how much of a prompt is already inferable from the tool's JSON parameter schema + name, to prune redundancy with evidence; (2) house authoring rules for what belongs in a tool…
semantic-compression
Re-encode verbose prose into a dense telegraphic register — punctuation as connectives, label frames, verbless assertions — without losing normativity or precision. Use when compressing system prompts, tool/function descriptions, skill bodies, or agent instructions; reducing token count or context bloat; making…
durable-session-state
Persist plans, scope decisions, evidence, and reviewer/critic verdicts to durable files during long or multi-phase tasks so work survives context compaction, session resumes, and handoffs. Use for swarm-mode tasks, before context grows large, when recording approval gates, and when resuming after compaction or a…
install-skill
Install a pasted SKILL.md (or one fetched from a URL or file path) into the user-skill directory, reviewing risk and connector requirements.
specify
Full execution protocol for MODE: SPECIFY -- spec creation, codebase reality checks, SME input, QA gate persistence, and optional council spec review.
rove
Use when controlling Rove tasks, parallel coding attempts, hosted agent sessions, task lifecycle, or the daemon-owned issue tracker from a shell. Also the ONLY channel for messaging another agent session on this machine — rove api send, never a peer/MCP side channel.
