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 5.1 | $0.00125 | $0.03224 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00063 | $0.01612 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00025 | $0.00645 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00013 | $0.00322 |
Grade A, and why
differentiation-schemes 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 10d 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 — 240 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Differentiation Schemes
Goal
Provide a reliable workflow to select a differentiation scheme, generate stencils, and assess accuracy for simulation discretization.
Requirements
- Python 3.10+
- NumPy (for stencil computations)
- No heavy dependencies
Inputs to Gather
| Input | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Derivative order | First, second, etc. | 1 or 2 |
| Target accuracy | Order of truncation error | 2 or 4 |
| Grid type | Uniform, nonuniform | uniform |
| Boundary type | Periodic, Dirichlet, Neumann | periodic |
| Smoothness | Smooth or discontinuous | smooth |
Decision Guidance
Scheme Selection Flowchart
Is the field smooth?
├── YES → Is domain periodic?
│ ├── YES → Use central differences or spectral
│ └── NO → Use central interior + one-sided at boundaries
└── NO → Are there shocks/discontinuities?
├── YES → Use upwind, TVD, or WENO
└── NO → Use central with limiters
Quick Reference
| Situation | Recommended Scheme |
|---|---|
| Smooth, periodic | Central, spectral |
| Smooth, bounded | Central + one-sided BCs |
| Advection-dominated | Upwind |
| Shocks/fronts | TVD, WENO |
| High accuracy needed | Compact (Padé), spectral |
Script Outputs (JSON Fields)
| Script | Key Outputs |
|---|---|
scripts/stencil_generator.py |
offsets, coefficients, order, accuracy, scheme |
scripts/scheme_selector.py |
recommended, alternatives, notes |
scripts/truncation_error.py |
error_scale, order, reduction_if_halved |
Workflow
- Identify requirements - derivative order, accuracy, smoothness
- Select scheme - Run
scripts/scheme_selector.py - Generate stencils - Run
scripts/stencil_generator.py - Estimate error - Run
scripts/truncation_error.py - Validate - Test with manufactured solutions or grid refinement
Conversational Workflow Example
User: I need to discretize a second derivative for a diffusion equation on a uniform grid. I want 4th-order accuracy.

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.

differentiation-schemes is a skill published in the GitHub repository HeshamFS/materials-simulation-skills (66 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 125 tokens to every session and 3,224 once invoked, about $0.0006 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.
Other skills, from other repositories
search-math-results
Find program-conditioned math results, constructions, examples, counterexamples, analogies, and background references. Use when the current active program needs repair, mutation, analogy, a program shift, or carefully gated obstruction search.
check-referenced-statements
Validate externally referenced theorems by querying arXiv theorem search first and Codex's built-in web search second. Use when a markdown proof cites statements from external papers.
verify-sequential-statements
Verify a markdown proof in the order it is written. Use when the task is to check local correctness, theorem applicability, and reasoning gaps statement by statement through a paper-style proof.
construct-counterexamples
Construct candidate counterexamples to test a proposed conjecture, lemma, or intermediate claim by keeping the assumptions true while making the claimed conclusion fail. Use when a proposed conjecture/claim feels fragile or unproved, or when you are stuck in reasoning and want to see where the assumptions take effect…
obtain-immediate-conclusions
Derive immediate mathematical consequences from a theorem statement or subgoal. Use when starting a new problem, branch, or subgoal, or when cheap progress or a cleaner reformulation is needed before deeper proof search.
propose-subgoal-decomposition-plans
Propose multiple subgoal decomposition plans for the current theorem using the information already gathered. Use when enough information has been collected from examples, counterexamples, search results, and previous failures to break the problem into several materially different plans.
