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.

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 | $0.00139 | $0.01424 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00069 | $0.00712 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00028 | $0.00285 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00014 | $0.00142 |
Grade A, and why
bump-core-req 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 today.
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 — 118 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
bump-core-req
Update a fleet plugin's minimum core version in all three canonical locations.
Background: why three places?
Per this monorepo's conventions (CLAUDE.md → Conventions), the core version requirement lives in:
plugins/<slug>/.claude-plugin/hermit-meta.json→required_core_version— authoritative, read bydoctor-check.tsat runtime to detect incompatible siblingsplugins/<slug>/.claude-plugin/hermit-meta.json→requires["claude-code-hermit"]— documentation mirrorplugins/<slug>/.claude-plugin/plugin.json→dependencies[name=claude-code-hermit].version— native Claude Code resolver field
All three must stay in sync. This skill is the single operation that touches all of them atomically. It leaves committing to the operator via /commit.
Usage
/bump-core-req <fleet-slug> [version]
<fleet-slug>— directory name of the fleet plugin underplugins/(e.g.claude-code-fitness-hermit)[version]— optional target version like1.0.26. If omitted, readplugins/claude-code-hermit/.claude-plugin/plugin.json→.versionand use that.
Steps
Step 0: Resolve slug
If no slug was passed, or it's invalid:
- Glob
plugins/*/.claude-plugin/plugin.json. Collect directory names. - Remove
claude-code-hermitfrom the list — that's core, not a fleet plugin. - Ask via
AskUserQuestion: "Which fleet plugin to update?" with one option per slug.
If claude-code-hermit was explicitly passed as slug, abort: "Core doesn't depend on itself — pass a fleet plugin slug."
Validate plugins/<slug>/.claude-plugin/hermit-meta.json exists. If not:
Abort: "
<slug>has nohermit-meta.json— not a fleet plugin or migration is incomplete."
Step 1: Resolve target version
If version was passed as an argument, strip a leading v if present. Validate the result matches X.Y.Z (digits only, two dots). If it doesn't match, abort with a clear message.
If no version arg, read plugins/claude-code-hermit/.claude-plugin/plugin.json → .version. This is the current shipped core version. Report it to the operator: "Autodetected core version: X.Y.Z".
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.

bump-core-req is a skill published in the GitHub repository gtapps/claude-code-hermit (73 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 139 tokens to every session and 1,424 once invoked, about $0.0007 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.
