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.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00046 | $0.01806 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00023 | $0.00903 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00009 | $0.00361 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00181 |
Grade A, and why
survival-crafting 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 13d 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 — 142 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Survival Crafting
A playbook for survival-crafting games — the gather → craft → build loop, survival needs, the crafting/tech progression, and base building. This is a compositional skill: it orchestrates inventory data, world content, persistence, and threats. It does not re-teach those primitives; it defines the loop and the pressure systems (needs, scarcity, escalation) that make survival tense rather than tedious.
When to use
- Use when the player gathers resources, crafts items/structures, manages survival needs, and builds a base against escalating threats: survival sandbox, crafting/base-building game.
- Use when designing needs (hunger/thirst/temperature), a crafting tech tree, gathering loops, or base placement/building.
When not to use: crafting as a minor RPG feature → rpg. Permadeath grid dungeon →
roguelike. For inventory/items as data assets, use godot-resources /
unity-scriptableobjects; for world generation, procedural-gen.
Core loop
Gather raw resources → craft tools/items → build and upgrade a base → manage survival needs → explore farther for better resources → survive escalating threats → repeat at a higher tier. Each loop should unlock the next loop (better tools → reach new biomes → new resources → better crafts). When that ladder breaks, the game becomes a grind.
Must-have systems
- Resource nodes + gathering — harvestable world objects; tool requirements/tiers; respawn.
- Inventory — stacks, capacity (slots or weight), drop/transfer, hotbar.
- Crafting — recipes (inputs → output), a crafting station/tech gate, a tech tree.
- Survival needs — hunger, thirst, temperature, stamina, health, with decay + consequences.
- Base building — placeable structures, a build grid/snapping, storage, crafting stations.
- World + day/night — biomes/resources (often procedural); a time cycle driving threats.
- Threats — hostile creatures/weather/events that escalate; combat or avoidance.
- Save/load — world state, inventory, base, needs, progression; large-world persistence.
What ships with it
1 file 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.
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.

survival-crafting is a skill published in the GitHub repository gamedev-skills/awesome-gamedev-agent-skills (952 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 46 tokens to every session and 1,806 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. 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 2026-08-30.
Other skills, from other repositories
assets-get-data
Get asset data from the asset file in the Unity project — every serializable field and property. Supports token-saving path-scoped reads via paths or viewQuery. Use 'assets-find' to find the asset first.
gameobject-set-parent
Reparent a batch of GameObjects under a new parent in the currently opened Prefab or active Scene. Per-item failures are reported in the returned status string instead of aborting the batch. Use 'gameobject-find' to locate the GameObjects first.
unity-version-split
Split a C# file into Unity 6.5+ and pre-Unity 6.5 variants. Use when a file needs different implementations for different Unity versions due to API changes (e.g., EntityId vs int, GetEntityId vs GetInstanceID).
profiler-save-data
Save a snapshot of profiler-derived stats (status + memory + rendering + script + frame capture) to a JSON file. Built-in Unity APIs only.
assets-shader-list-all
List all shaders available in the project assets and packages, sorted by name. Use this to discover a valid shaderName for 'assets-material-create'.
profiler-stop
Disable Unity's runtime profiler. Idempotent — calling when already disabled returns the current disabled state.
