agent-skill-discovery

agent-skill-discovery is a skill for Claude Code from ericgandrade/claude-superskills. It costs 84 tokens per session (4,985 once invoked), scanned B, original, MIT.

A discovery tool that inventories installed plugins, agents, skills, and tool servers, including resources configured in the current repository. It presents the results in a structured catalogue.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to audit the environment, inspect repository configuration, find available skills or agents, investigate missing resources, and verify installations.
Why use it?
It removes the need to inspect several installation and project locations manually when looking for available coding-agent resources. It is discovery-only and does not analyse or orchestrate those resources.

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 B, and why

agent-skill-discovery scanned grade B 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.

Reads MCP configurationmediumAgent snooping

mcp.json carries server URLs and auth tokens; reading it lets a mod discover and abuse other integrations.

Purpose

Automated inventory of AI CLI resources across two scopes: resources installed on the system and resources present in the current repository. This skill provides a comprehensive, platform-agnostic catalog of plugins, agents, skills, and MCP servers available in the current environment.

The skill operates in discovery-only mode—it scans, lists, and presents resources without performing analysis, recommendations, or orchestration. It serves as the foundation layer for resource awareness across all supported AI CLI platforms.

When to Use

Invoke this skill when:

  • User wants to know what resources are installed
  • Before planning complex tasks (foundation for orchestration)
  • Debugging missing resources or capabilities
  • Auditing available tools and integrations
  • Discovering newly installed plugins or MCP servers
  • Verifying skill installation after setup
  • Understanding platform capabilities
  • Checking whether the current repository contains local agents, skills, or MCP configs

Parallel Scanning Strategy

After platform detection (Step 0), launch Steps 1–4 as four simultaneous agents in a single block:

Agent Role
PluginScanner Glob for plugin.json files, extract name/version/agents metadata
SkillScanner Glob for SKILL.md files, parse YAML frontmatter, extract name/description/triggers
McpScanner Read .mcp.json, run ToolSearch per server, build tool inventory
RepoScanner Scan current working directory for local agents, skills, and MCP configs

What ships with it

3 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.

Changes

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.
