.codex/skills/tss-batch-prefetch/SKILL.md

tss-batch-prefetch is a skill for Codex from doronz88/pymobiledevice3. It costs 120 tokens per session (2,511 once invoked), scanned A, original, GPL-3.0.

Instructions for maintaining a batched list of Apple device components that can be requested together during a restore. TSS is Apple's server-side signing service used to approve restore-related requests.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when adding a device model, extending component coverage, or investigating TSS rejection during device restoration.
Why use it?
It helps keep the prefetch list aligned with supported device models and diagnose rejected combined requests.

Token cost

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

tss-batch-prefetch 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 8d 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 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.
