SkillSpector: 1 finding, up to high
These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →
- high Prompt Injection · line 24 Hidden instructions were detected in comments or invisible text. These could contain malicious directives. Manual review is recommended.Fix: Audit all comments and invisible characters. Remove any instructions that direct the agent to perform unauthorized actions. Use plain, reviewable content.
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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00050 | $0.02179 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00020 | $0.00872 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00010 | $0.00436 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00218 |
Grade A, and why
best-practices scanned grade A 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 1mo 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.

What ships with it
1 file 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.
- 1mo ago First seen · 477 lines · 50 tokens per session scan A faf20fc15e0f
best-practices is a skill published in the GitHub repository dallay/agentsync (70 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 50 tokens to every session and 2,179 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.

hunk-launch-video
Produces Hunk videos by driving the real TUI headlessly in a PTY, compositing captioned 1080p frames in Chromium, and encoding with ffmpeg. Use for feature demos, workflow explainers, announcements, launch videos, and full-release roundups.
hunk-release
Prepares, publishes, verifies, and curates Hunk releases. Use for release metadata, benchmarks, tags, publishing, release videos, backports, or recovery.
shadow-verify
Dispatch a parallel adversarial verifier wave after any high-stakes sub-agent investigation (code reviews, audits, findings reports, large refactors, gap analyses) — or whenever a sub-agent asserts a claim with high-confidence language, since confidence is a trigger, not a verdict. Use when sub-agent output will drive…
code-review
Reviewing code for defects: diff-first reading, severity classification, evidence over inference, finding caps, and terminal verdicts. Use when reviewing a diff, PR, or patch, or auditing someone else's work.
responding-to-review
Answering review findings: verify each claim before implementing, no performative agreement, per-item fix/reject/defer with evidence, one batched remediation round. Use when responding to review or remediation rounds.
simplify
Discovers incidental complexity, duplication, and dead code in a codebase and produces a ranked, behavior-preserving reduction plan — optionally applying safe changes. Dispatches four parallel read-only discovery lenses (clone detection, dead code, complexity hotspots, wrong abstraction), synthesizes into a…
