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.

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 | $0.00045 | $0.10724 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00018 | $0.04290 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00009 | $0.02145 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.01072 |
Grade D, and why
gh-cli scanned grade D with 3 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.
Asks for rootmediumPrivilege escalation
A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

SSH keys, cloud credentials, git-credentials, .npmrc, /etc/shadow: reading these is how a config file becomes a credential leak.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

91% identical to gh-cli — 5 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

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 · 2,192 lines · 45 tokens per session scan D a264cff792b9
gh-cli is a skill published in the GitHub repository devantler-tech/agent-plugins (2 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 45 tokens to every session and 10,724 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it D with 3 findings (asks for root, reaches for credential files, makes network calls). It is 91% identical to gh-cli, differing in 5 lines, and is treated as a copy.
Other skills, from other repositories
glab
Expert guidance for using the GitLab CLI (glab) to manage GitLab issues, merge requests, CI/CD pipelines, repositories, and other GitLab operations from the command line. Use this skill when the user needs to interact with GitLab resources or perform GitLab workflows.
version-bump
This skill automates version bumping during the release process for the Claude Code Handbook monorepo. It should be used when the user requests to bump versions, prepare a release, or increment version numbers across the repository.
commit-push-pr
Full git workflow - creates branch, commits, pushes, and creates or updates a PR with summary and test plan.
commit
Create a single well-crafted git commit from current changes. Analyzes diff, follows repo's commit style, and writes a concise "why not what" message.
review-pr
Review a Pull Request in one of two postures: an expository "tour guide" that walks through changes in logical order, or an adversarial audit that assumes the change is wrong until proven safe and hunts for the failure mode. Triggers: "review PR #123", "adversarial review", "walk me through this PR", "PR tour guide"…
run
Drive a GitHub issue — bare or tracked on a Project board — from triage to a merge-ready PR through a gated pipeline (design hardening, tests green, code-review clean), scaling the machinery to the task's tier and asking at most one batched question. Auto-links the issue to close on merge, advances the board card…
