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.

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 | $0.00061 | $0.01003 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00030 | $0.00502 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00012 | $0.00201 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00100 |
Grade A, and why
graph-skills-retriever 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 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.
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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 100 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Purpose
Use this skill instead of manually browsing a large skill library.
It assumes the environment already provides:
- the
graphskills-queryCLI - a GoS workspace or a prebuilt workspace configured through
GOS_WORKING_DIRand optionallyGOS_PREBUILT_WORKING_DIR
If that wiring is missing, read references/container-layout.md.
Retrieve Relevant Skills
Construct the query yourself. Do not rely on the retrieval system to infer missing task structure for you.
A good query should usually include only the retrieval-critical fields that are actually known:
- the concrete goal
- the main artifact or file format
- the key operation or algorithm
- the required library, API, protocol, or tool name if known
- the verifier-critical constraint or invariant
- the task object being edited, parsed, generated, optimized, or validated
Keep it short, but make it specific. Prefer a compact noun/verb phrase over a long paragraph.
Good patterns:
update embedded xlsx in pptx and preserve formulas
parallel tfidf indexing with processpoolexecutor deterministic ranking
civ6 district adjacency exact calculator for verifier
parse branching dialogue script into graph export
Bad patterns:
please solve this task for me
I need help with a benchmark task
fix the project and make everything work
Run:
graphskills-query "short specific query with goal + artifact + operation + constraint"
Useful flags:
graphskills-query "debug spring boot jakarta migration build errors" --top-n 5 --seed-top-k 4 --max-context-chars 9000
graphskills-query "extract text from receipts into xlsx" --json
graphskills-query "review paper references and improve the draft" --workspace /opt/graphskills/runtime
How To Use The Results
- Start with a short task-level query.
- Read the returned bundle carefully and check the retrieval status.
- If the result says
Retrieval Status: NO_SKILL_HIT, explicitly state that no relevant skill was retrieved and continue on a no-skill path. Do not imply that you used a retrieved skill. - If the result says
Retrieval Status: SKILL_HIT, inspect the task requirements, tests, and verifier first. Write down the minimum acceptance requirements before implementing. - Use the exact
Source:paths returned by retrieval. Do not reconstruct paths from the skill name or scan the whole skill library if aSource:path is already available. - Follow the retrieved skill instructions and inspect the referenced
Source:paths when you need scripts or references from a specific skill. - Use the skill bundle to narrow the solution space. Prefer the shortest path to verifier pass, and prefer adapting an existing script or interface over inventing a broader replacement.
- Re-query with a narrower subproblem if the task shifts.
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.
- 12d ago First seen · 100 lines · 61 tokens per session scan A cb4b14f3a4d0
graph-skills-retriever is a skill published in the GitHub repository davidliuk/graph-of-skills (207 stars, last pushed 12d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 61 tokens to every session and 1,003 once invoked, about $0.0003 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.
