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 C, and why

system-to-course scanned grade C 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 12d 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.

Hidden instructionshighPrompt injection

Directives inside HTML comments, invisible characters or bidirectional overrides are read by the model and not by the person reviewing the file.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 228 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

System-to-Course

Transform a structured analysis.md into a multi-page static HTML course. Each page is self-contained (inline CSS/JS), linked via shared navigation, and organized by depth levels (Beginner/Intermediate/Advanced) with inline level badges for visual clarity.

First-Run Welcome

When triggered, explain what you do:

I generate interactive HTML courses from system analysis files.

Point me at an analysis:

  • From a prior analyzer run — I'll look for [output-dir]analysis.md automatically
  • A specific file — e.g., "generate course from ./my-analysis.md"

The output is a multi-page static site with interactive diagrams, code snippets, quizzes, and cross-page navigation. Content is organized by depth level with inline badges. All self-contained — just open index.html.

Output Directory

Always ask the user where to save the generated course files before writing any files. Use AskUserQuestion to prompt:

Where would you like me to save the generated HTML course? Default: dist/[system-name]/

Accept the user's chosen path. If they accept the default or say something like "that's fine" or "default", use dist/[system-name]/. Store this path as [output-dir].

Exception: When called by the system-explorer orchestrator with a pre-determined output directory, use that directory without re-asking.

Create the directory if it does not exist.

Input

The skill supports two input formats. Always detect automatically:

  1. Multi-file format (v2): Check for [output-dir]/analysis.json first. If found, this is the new multi-file format — read the manifest to discover section files. Confirm with the user.
  2. Legacy single-file format: If no analysis.json exists, check for [output-dir]/analysis.md. If found, use the legacy single-file parsing. Confirm with the user.
  3. Direct file path: Accept a path to any markdown file structured with level tags (<!-- level: ... -->).

Verify the input has valid level tags before proceeding. If level tags are missing, warn the user and add sensible defaults based on heading depth.

What ships with it

4 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.

Changes

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.
