Goose Skills is a library of workflows and data APIs that lets coding agents handle growth and go-to-market work such as advertising, social media, content, SEO, lead generation, and customer research. It is intended for teams using Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and similar agents. The catalogue entries are its reusable skills.
Getting it into your agent
It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

A badge with what this costs and how it scanned, read live from this page, so it follows the numbers instead of freezing them. Markdown for a README, HTML for a documentation site or a project page.

SkillSpector: 8 findings, up to medium
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 →

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 | $0.00060 | $0.03312 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00030 | $0.01656 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00012 | $0.00662 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00331 |
Grade A, and why
industry-scanner 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 9d 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 — 369 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Industry Scanner
Daily deep-research agent that scans the internet for everything relevant to a client's industry, then generates strategic GTM opportunities based on what it finds.
Quick Start
Run an industry scan for <client>. Use the config at clients/<client>/config/industry-scanner.json.
Or for a weekly deeper scan:
Run a weekly industry scan for <client> with --lookback 7.
Inputs
- Client name — determines which config and context files to load
- Lookback period (optional) —
1for daily (default),7for weekly deep scan - Focus area (optional) — limit scan to specific categories (e.g., "competitors only", "events only")
Step-by-Step Process
Phase 1: Load Configuration
- Read
clients/<client>/config/industry-scanner.json— this contains all the keywords, sources, competitors, and URLs to scan - Read
clients/<client>/context.md— need the ICP, value props, and positioning to generate relevant strategies - Set the lookback period: use
1day for daily scans,7for weekly, or whatever the user specifies - Note today's date for the output filename
If no client config exists, ask the user for the key inputs and offer to create one from the example at skills/industry-scanner/config/example-config.json.
Phase 2: Data Collection
Run these data sources in parallel where possible. Skip any source that isn't configured. For each source, use the existing skill's CLI or tool as documented.
IMPORTANT: Run as many of these bash commands in parallel as possible to minimize total scan time. Sources are independent of each other.
2A. Web Search (built-in WebSearch tool)
Run 5-8 web searches combining the configured web_search_queries with time-sensitive modifiers. Examples:
"<industry keyword> news this week""<competitor name> shutdown OR closing OR acquired 2026""<industry> conference 2026 speaker applications""<industry keyword> new regulation OR policy change""<competitor name> layoffs OR pivot OR rebrand"
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.
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.

industry-scanner is a skill published in the GitHub repository gooseworks-ai/goose-skills (1,202 stars, last pushed 11d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 60 tokens to every session and 3,312 once invoked, about $0.0003 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 2026-09-03.
