LifeOS is an AI-assisted personal operating system that records a person’s goals, values, context, and current situation to help move them toward a desired future state. It supports work such as building applications, starting businesses, and creative projects. Its catalogue entries extend the system through skills, hooks, agents, and commands.
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.

SkillSpector: 1 finding, up to medium
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 →
- medium Data Exfiltration · line 4 Data is being sent to an external URL. This could be legitimate telemetry or data exfiltration. Manual review is recommended.Fix: Verify the destination URL is trusted and necessary. Remove or replace with documented APIs. Ensure no secrets, tokens, or PII are transmitted.
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 | $0.00133 | $0.01147 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00053 | $0.00459 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00027 | $0.00229 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00013 | $0.00115 |
Grade A, and why
BrightData 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.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.
description: "4-tier progressive web scraping that auto-escalates WebFetch to curl to Interceptor to Bright Data proxy for bot detection and CAPTCHAs, with single-URL and multi-page crawl modes, output as markdown. USE W How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 76 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Customization
Before executing, check for user customizations at:
~/.claude/LIFEOS/USER/CUSTOMIZATIONS/SKILLS/BrightData/
If this directory exists, load and apply any PREFERENCES.md, configurations, or resources found there. These override default behavior. If the directory does not exist, proceed with skill defaults.
🚨 MANDATORY: Voice Notification (REQUIRED BEFORE ANY ACTION)
You MUST send this notification BEFORE doing anything else when this skill is invoked.
-
Send voice notification:
curl -s -X POST http://localhost:31337/notify \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"message": "Running the WORKFLOWNAME workflow in the BrightData skill to ACTION"}' \ > /dev/null 2>&1 & -
Output text notification:
Running the **WorkflowName** workflow in the **BrightData** skill to ACTION...
This is not optional. Execute this curl command immediately upon skill invocation.
BrightData
Scrapes a single URL (FourTierScrape) or crawls a whole site (Crawl), escalating through four tiers only as far as each page needs. Output is always markdown. Start at Tier 1 and step up only when blocked — reaching for the heavy proxy every time wastes Tier-4 credits. A Cloudflare Accept: text/markdown pre-check runs before Tier 1 (recipe in FourTierScrape.md).
The four tiers (tool contract)
| Tier | Tool | Wins on | Cost / latency |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | WebFetch | public content, no bot detection | free · ~2-5s |
| 2 | curl + Chrome headers | user-agent / basic header checks | free · ~3-7s |
| 3 | Interceptor (real Chrome) | JavaScript-rendered / SPA pages | free · ~10-20s |
| 4 | Bright Data MCP mcp__Brightdata__scrape_as_markdown |
CAPTCHA, advanced fingerprinting, residential-IP needs | Bright Data credits · ~5-15s |
Playwright is banned across LifeOS — Tier 3 is Interceptor. Skip-ahead: explicit "use Bright Data" → Tier 4; "use browser" → Tier 3; a domain that already failed Tier 1 → start at Tier 2. The exact curl header block, Cloudflare pre-check, and Interceptor commands live in Workflows/FourTierScrape.md.
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.

BrightData is a skill published in the GitHub repository danielmiessler/LifeOS (19,476 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 133 tokens to every session and 1,147 once invoked, about $0.0005 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.
Other skills, from other repositories
skillify
Codify the most recent successful /scrape flow into a permanent browser-skill on disk. Future /scrape calls with the same intent run the codified script in 200ms instead of re-driving the page. Walks back through the conversation, synthesizes script.ts + script.test.ts fixture, runs the test in a temp dir, and asks…
browser-use
Direct browser control via CDP for web interaction: automation, scraping, testing, screenshots, and site/app work.
slack
Interact with Slack workspaces using browser automation. Use when the user needs to check unread channels, navigate Slack, send messages, extract data, find information, search conversations, or automate any Slack task. Triggers include "check my Slack", "what channels have unreads", "send a message to", "search Slack…
cli-anything-macrocli
Use when the agent wants to define, list, inspect, or execute GUI macros via the MacroCLI CLI. Macros are parameterized, CLI-callable workflows — the agent invokes macro run and the system handles backend routing (plugin, file transform, accessibility, compiled GUI replay).
agent-browser
Use the agent-browser CLI to exercise web interfaces, inspect rendered accessibility state, verify interactions, and capture screenshots. Use for browser-based UI testing and evidence collection. Do not use as a substitute for deterministic Playwright coverage when an automated regression test is the requested…
pinchtab-mcp
Use this skill when a task requires browser automation through PinchTab's MCP server connected to a remote browser instance. Covers navigation, element interaction, data extraction, form filling, multi-step flows, and session management via MCP tools.
