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 | $0.00094 | $0.01031 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00047 | $0.00515 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00019 | $0.00206 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00103 |
Grade D, and why
rclone scanned grade D with 3 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 5d 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.
Asks for rootmediumPrivilege escalation
A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

rclone File Transfer Skill
Setup Check (Always Run First)
Before any rclone operation, verify installation and configuration:
# Check if rclone is installed
command -v rclone >/dev/null 2>&1 && echo "rclone installed: $(rclone version | head -1)" || echo "NOT INSTALLED"
# List configured remotes
rclone listremotes 2>/dev/null || echo "NO REMOTES CONFIGURED"
If rclone is NOT installed
Guide the user to install:
# macOS
brew install rclone
# Linux (script install)
curl https://rclone.org/install.sh | sudo bash
# Or via package manager
sudo apt install rclone # Debian/Ubuntu
sudo dnf install rclone # Fedora
If NO remotes are configured
Walk the user through interactive configuration:
rclone config
Common provider setup quick reference:
| Provider | Type | Key Settings |
|---|---|---|
| AWS S3 | s3 |
access_key_id, secret_access_key, region |
| Cloudflare R2 | s3 |
access_key_id, secret_access_key, endpoint (account_id.r2.cloudflarestorage.com) |
| Backblaze B2 | b2 |
account (keyID), key (applicationKey) |
| DigitalOcean Spaces | s3 |

Example: Configure Cloudflare R2
rclone config create r2 s3 \
provider=Cloudflare \
access_key_id=YOUR_ACCESS_KEY \
secret_access_key=YOUR_SECRET_KEY \
endpoint=ACCOUNT_ID.r2.cloudflarestorage.com \

Example: Configure AWS S3
rclone config create aws s3 \
provider=AWS \
access_key_id=YOUR_ACCESS_KEY \
secret_access_key=YOUR_SECRET_KEY \
region=us-east-1
Common Operations
Upload single file
rclone copy /path/to/file.mp4 remote:bucket/path/ --progress
Upload directory
rclone copy /path/to/folder remote:bucket/folder/ --progress
Sync directory (mirror, deletes removed files)
rclone sync /local/path remote:bucket/path/ --progress
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.

rclone is a skill published in the GitHub repository gvkhosla/compound-engineering-pi (51 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 94 tokens to every session and 1,031 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it D with 3 findings (asks for root, downloads and executes remote code, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.

fabric-exec
Troubleshooting and advanced API reference for fabricexec TypeScript programs, dynamic providers, agents, and schema recovery. Routine pi. coding calls are documented by ambient guidance; load this skill only after an argument-shape error or when an advanced surface needs exact contracts.
fabric-fusion
Multi-model deliberation. Two to 8 distinct models answer in parallel with web-capable tools, then a judge compares consensus, contradictions, coverage gaps, unique insights, and blind spots. Act mode runs 1–4 read-only references, then one actor reconciles and executes. Use when the cost of being wrong justifies…
fabric-rlm
Recursively decomposes oversized tasks into bounded child Pi agents with fresh context windows. Use for whole-repo audits, massive-context analysis, and multi-file refactors that do not fit one context.
fabric-schema
Uses Fabric's typed Schema evidence loop and, when enabled, its bounded local-file transaction channel. Use when surprise must void a plan and mutation claims need explicit postconditions.
fabric-workflow
Runs a dynamic Pi Fabric workflow with code-held phases, fan-out, pipelines, structured agents, and best-effort verification. Use for large audits, migrations, parallel research, or explicit workflow requests.
fabric-council
Runs a bounded multi-perspective Pi Fabric council with independent reviewers and best-effort synthesis. Use for architecture choices, plans, reviews, and adversarial cross-checking.
