elementary-algebra

elementary-algebra is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from hamzabellouch/agent-skills. It costs 25 tokens per session (274 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A foundational mathematics skill for working with symbols, equations, inequalities, exponents, and logarithms. It includes linear and quadratic equations and systems of equations.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to solve equations and inequalities, factor and expand expressions, and find unknowns in systems. It provides a foundation for calculus, statistics, programming, and technical modelling.
Why use it?
It helps turn unknown quantities into solvable expressions and provides rules for manipulating them safely. It also highlights common errors such as invalid logarithms and extra solutions introduced by squaring.

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

elementary-algebra 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 7d 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

Elementary Algebra

Domain

Symbolic manipulation of equations and inequalities.

Core Concepts

  • Variables, expressions, polynomials
  • Linear and quadratic equations
  • Systems of equations
  • Exponents and logarithms

Key Methods

  • Factoring (difference of squares, grouping)
  • Quadratic formula: x = (-b ± √(b²-4ac)) / 2a
  • Completing the square
  • Substitution and elimination
  • Logarithm rules: log(ab)=log a + log b

Canonical Examples

  • Solve x² - 5x + 6 = 0 → x ∈ {2, 3}.
  • Solve system: x+y=5, 2x-y=1 → x=2, y=3.
  • Expand (a+b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³.

Common Pitfalls

  • Forgetting to flip inequality sign when multiplying by negative
  • Extraneous roots from squaring both sides
  • Invalid log arguments (≤0)

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.

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.

elementary-algebra is a skill published in the GitHub repository hamzabellouch/agent-skills (8 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 25 tokens to every session and 274 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-10-10.
