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 | $0.00185 | $0.04488 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00074 | $0.01795 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00037 | $0.00898 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00018 | $0.00449 |
Grade A, and why
huawei-cloud-ecs-lifecycle 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 13d 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 — 316 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Huawei Cloud ECS Lifecycle Management
Full lifecycle management for Huawei Cloud Elastic Cloud Server (ECS) — from provisioning to decommissioning, including power-state orchestration and instance queries.
Overview
This Skill manages the complete lifecycle of ECS (Elastic Cloud Server) instances on Huawei Cloud
using the KooCLI ECS service (with the huaweicloudsdkecs Python SDK as fallback):
| Capability | Operations | Actions |
|---|---|---|
| Query | ListServersDetails, ShowServer |
List instances with filters/pagination; show instance detail |
| Create | CreateServers |
Create one or more pay-per-use cloud servers |
| Power state | BatchStartServers, BatchStopServers, BatchRebootServers |
Start / stop / reboot (batch) |
| Update | BatchUpdateServersName |
Rename one or more servers |
| Delete | DeleteServers |
Delete one or more servers (optional EIP/data volume release) |
| Knowledge | — | Basic ECS FAQ (flavors, billing, auth, network, disk) answered inline |
Scope note: All mutating operations (create / delete / start / stop / reboot / rename) are executed only after explicit user confirmation. Query operations are safe to run anytime.
Prerequisites
- KooCLI (hcloud) installed and authenticated — see
references/cli-installation-guide.md - Region — pass
--cli-region=cn-north-4(use the account's region; e.g.cn-north-4), or the active CLI profile default is used - IAM permissions — the authenticated account needs the ECS permissions listed in
references/iam-policies.md(least privilege) - Python 3.8+ with
huaweicloudsdkecs(only needed for the SDK fallback path)
Quality Reporting Environment Variables
| Environment Variable | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
SKILL_QUALITY_ENDPOINT |
No | 上报地址，默认 https://skillsapi.developer.myhuaweicloud.com/api/quality/report |
SKILL_QUALITY_GUEST_ENDPOINT |
No | Guest (unauthenticated) report endpoint |
SKILL_QUALITY_NAME |
No | Skill name (auto-detected) |
SKILL_QUALITY_DISABLE |
No | Set 1 to disable reporting (local debugging) |
SKILL_QUALITY_TIMEOUT |
No | Report timeout in seconds (default 3) |
What ships with it
7 files 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.

huawei-cloud-ecs-lifecycle is a skill published in the GitHub repository huaweicloud/huaweicloud-skills (59 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 185 tokens to every session and 4,488 once invoked, about $0.0007 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 2026-10-15.
