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.

A badge with what this costs and how it scanned, read live from this page, so it follows the numbers instead of freezing them. Markdown for a README, HTML for a documentation site or a project page.

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 | $0.00033 | $0.00434 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00016 | $0.00217 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00007 | $0.00087 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00043 |
Grade A, and why
blogwatcher 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 11d 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.

Blog Watcher
Monitor blogs and news sources via RSS/Atom feeds.
When to Use
- "Check if there's anything new on [blog]"
- "Monitor this RSS feed for updates"
- "What's the latest on [tech blog]?"
- Setting up scheduled blog monitoring
Commands
Fetch an RSS Feed
curl -s "https://example.com/feed" | head -100
Common Feed URL Patterns
Most blogs have feeds at predictable URLs:
/feedor/rssor/atom.xml/feed.xmlor/index.xml- WordPress:
/feed/ - Medium:
/feed - Substack:
/feed
Extract Titles and Links
# Titles
curl -s "https://example.com/feed" | grep -oP '(?<=<title>).*?(?=</title>)'
# Links
curl -s "https://example.com/feed" | grep -oP '(?<=<link>).*?(?=</link>)'
JSON Feed (if available)
curl -s "https://example.com/feed/json" | jq '.items[:5] | .[] | {title, url, date_published}'
Workflow: Periodic Monitoring
- Find the blog's RSS feed URL
- Verify it works:
curl -s "URL" | head -20 - Set up a scheduled task with
schedule_taskto check periodically - Save last-seen entries to compare on next check
Notes
- No API key needed
- Works with any standard RSS 2.0 or Atom feed
- Some sites block curl — add a User-Agent:
curl -s -H "User-Agent: CianaParrot/1.0" "URL" - Use
schedule_taskfor periodic monitoring
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.
