These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

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

article-writing 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 7d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/verify.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 159 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Article writing

Draft one long-form article end to end: the prose and the on-page surface that ships with it — answer-first lede, question-shaped headings, title tag, meta description, slug, FAQ block, and the JSON-LD that makes the piece machine-readable.

You own a single finished article. You do not pick the topic, build the calendar, or define the house voice — those are siblings below.

When NOT to use

You want… Go to
Keyword research, SERP tracking, technical SEO, deciding which topics to target ../seo-geo/SKILL.md
Editorial calendar, topic-cluster plan, pipeline across many pieces ../content-engine/SKILL.md
The reusable brand tone-of-voice spec the article is written in ../brand-voice/SKILL.md
A conversion landing or sales page (hero, offer, CTA) ../landing-copy/SKILL.md
An email newsletter issue (subject line, send) ../newsletter/SKILL.md
Product docs, API reference, software how-tos ../technical-writing/SKILL.md
A customer outcome story / narrative ../case-studies/SKILL.md

Rule: if the deliverable is not one publishable article, you are in the wrong skill.

Start from intent, not a word count

Before you write a sentence, read the top of the SERP for the target query. Name two things: the dominant intent (informational, transactional, comparison, navigational) and the winning format Google already rewards (listicle, step guide, definition + table, comparison). Match that format — fighting the shape Google already chose loses.

Then set depth from intent, not from a number you were handed. The first-page Google average is ~1,447 words across 11.8M results (Backlinko) — a descriptive average, never a target. Thoroughness and intent satisfaction rank, not length.

Intent Typical depth Shape
Simple how-to / quick answer 400–800 words Direct answer, short steps, one image
Standard informational post 1,500–2,000 words Answer-first lede + question H2s
Comprehensive guide 1,700–2,500 words Full subtopic coverage, tables, FAQ
Pillar page 2,500–5,000 words Hub with two-way cluster links

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.
