Getting it into your agent
This one installs as part of its plugin. Adding the marketplace and installing the plugin brings it with everything else the plugin ships.

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 | $0.00000 | $0.01419 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00568 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00284 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00142 |
Grade A, and why
risk 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 22d 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 82 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Risk assessment
Read ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/_reporting.md first: it holds the search workflow, kinds, aggregates, filters, citation rules, report skeleton, usage footer and the depth question both patterns start with.
Usage
/newsapi:risk "Red Sea shipping"— supply chain/newsapi:risk "Pakistan"— geopolitical
Supply chain when the subject is a commodity, route, supplier, industry or disruption; geopolitical when it is a country or region. A route, commodity or region often has no single concept: combine them with the query grammar from the shared reference ($or over concepts and keywords, $not for the noise) instead of running one search per name.
Both patterns combine mentions (each disruption or incident as a dated sentence with its entities and article link), events (the major developments) and aggregates (where and how much).
Supply chain (ask depth)
suggest({type: "concepts", prefix: "<topic/entity/region>"})search({kind: "articles", conceptUri, resultType: "conceptAggr"})for the suppliers, commodities and routes involved; ask the depth question with those namessearch({kind: "mentions", conceptUri, eventTypeUri: "et/business/labor-issues/workers-strike,et/business/products-services/supply,et/business/products-services/product-recall,et/business/industrial-accidents,et/society/transportation/transportation-disruption,et/society/legal/economic-sanctions,et/society/security/cyber-attacks,et/environment/natural-disasters", count: 50, factLevel: "fact"})(taxonomy in the shared reference)search({kind: "mentions", conceptUri, eventTypeUri, resultType: "locAggr"})for where the disruptions cluster;"timeAggr"if the user asks whether it is getting worsesearch({kind: "events", conceptUri, count: 50, sortBy: "date"}), triage,get_event_details({eventUri: [...], includeFields: "concepts,categories"}); for the key eventsget_event_details({eventUri: "<uri>", resultType: "articles", articlesCount: 10})gives citable rows- For mitigation and outlook detail:

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.

risk is a skill published in the GitHub repository EventRegistry/newsapi-mcp (3 stars, last pushed 10d ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 1,419 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-10-14.
