aether-linux-mcp-server: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/aether-linux-mcp/SKILL.md

aether-linux-mcp is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from foursecondfivefour/aether-linux-mcp-server. It costs 0 tokens per session (1,421 once invoked), scanned C, original, MIT.

A Linux computer-control interface that exposes system information and actions through tools, prompts, and readable data endpoints. Linux is an operating system used on servers, desktops, and other computers.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for Linux system checks, security audits, network and user management, process and service control, file and package operations, and system automation.
Why use it?
It gives an agent defined ways to inspect and manage a Linux system, including its hardware, users, processes, services, network, files, packages, and security settings.

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one. Also seen: installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents).

This is foursecondfivefour/aether-linux-mcp-server's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on aether-linux-mcp-server itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything aether-linux-mcp-server configures →

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 C, and why

aether-linux-mcp scanned grade C with 2 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 1mo 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.

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.

aether-linux-mcp is a skill published in the GitHub repository foursecondfivefour/aether-linux-mcp-server (0 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 1,421 tokens. A static security scan graded it C with 2 findings (downloads and executes remote code, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
