ping

A small smoke test for checking that the Mycelium plugin loaded and was packaged correctly. It returns a fixed confirmation marker.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for plugin-shape or installation checks during development and testing.
Why use it?
It provides a quick way to verify the plugin installation and invocation path. It is not intended for normal product work.

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 A, and why

ping 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 2d 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.

What it actually says

Ping (smoke-test only)

When invoked, respond with exactly this single line and nothing else:

MYCELIUM_PLUGIN_LOAD_OK

This is a plugin-shape marker, not a version assertion — it confirms the plugin packaging works end-to-end (manifest → marketplace → install → namespaced invocation). The version a user is actually running comes from /plugin list or plugin.json#version, not this marker. (The marker was previously version-suffixed, which created drift: it stayed pinned at _v0.20.0 while plugin.json moved through 10 patches. Detected during 2026-05-09 dogfood.)

For real Mycelium skills, see the parent skills/ directory once migration completes.

Changes

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.

ping is a skill published in the GitHub repository haabe/mycelium (45 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 35 tokens to every session and 272 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.
