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 | $0.00022 | $0.00426 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00170 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00085 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00043 |
Grade A, and why
persistent_straggler 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 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.
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.
What it actually says
Persistent straggler (worst_fraction)
slow_rank 看 当前窗口里谁平均最慢;本 skill 看 谁在多少 step 上拿「最慢 rank」。
worst_fraction
对每个 rank 统计:在窗口内有多少 step 上,该 rank 的 collective 总耗时等于该 step 的最大值。
worst_fraction ≈ 1.0— 几乎每步都是最慢( chronic straggler)worst_fraction ≈ 0.05— 偶发
Parameters
step_window(default300)worst_fraction_threshold(default0.25) —persistent_offenders步骤的过滤阈值use_global(defaulttrue)
用法
probing -t rank0:8080 skill run persistent_straggler --global
probing -t rank0:8080 skill run persistent_straggler --set worst_fraction_threshold=0.4 --set step_window=500

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.

persistent_straggler is a skill published in the GitHub repository DeepLink-org/probing (10 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 22 tokens to every session and 426 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. 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.
