cli-anything-anygen

cli-anything-anygen is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from HKUDS/CLI-Anything. It costs 33 tokens per session (942 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A stateful command-line interface for AnyGen's OpenAPI service, which generates items such as slides, documents, websites, and diagrams from prompts. It can manage generation tasks and project files.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create, check, wait for, download, and run generation tasks, and to create or inspect AnyGen projects.
Why use it?
It lets an agent start and track generation work from commands instead of manually using a separate interface. Non-blocking status checks help with tasks that take time.

About the project

CLI-Anything turns software and services into command-line interfaces that AI agents can use to perform tasks and produce artifacts. It is intended for people building or using agent workflows with tools such as coding assistants, design software, and other applications. The catalogue entries are skills, commands, a plugin, and a rule for working with CLI-Anything.

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

cli-anything-anygen 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 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.
