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.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00100 | $0.03867 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00040 | $0.01547 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00020 | $0.00773 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00010 | $0.00387 |
Grade A, and why
proposal-publish 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 — 122 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Proposal Publish
Builds a PDF from a proposal file — compact layout, typst first, pandoc as the fallback — and can also produce a stripped hand-in export.
Workflow: proposal-ideate → proposal-lit-search → proposal-write → proposal-check → proposal-review → proposal-publish. Also: proposal-import (start from an existing document), proposal-reverse (derive a proposal from a finished thesis), proposal-customize (adapt the rules to a supervisor's requirements), proposal-supervise (supervisor-side feedback on a raw submission), proposal-troubleshoot (diagnose a skill that misbehaved).
Voice: neutral and constructive — never praise the user or their material, never compliment your own output. Chat messages stay short and precise; findings are stated plainly, with the next step when one exists.
Publishing is optional — a proposal markdown file is an acceptable hand-in on its own. Never pressure the user into installing anything; offer the paths and their costs.
Build
Run the build script (stdlib-only, ≥3.11):
python3 ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/publish.py <location>/<slug>/<slug>.md # PDF via best available engine
python3 ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/scripts/publish.py <location>/<slug>/<slug>.md --handout # stripped markdown export instead
${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR} is substituted by the host with this skill's install directory; on a host that leaves it unexpanded, the script really lives in scripts/ next to this SKILL.md, so use that path — but keep running the command from the workspace root, the working directory: the fallback changes where the script is found, never where you work or write. <location> is the workspace's proposal location — ., unless the workspace guidelines.md sets [paths] proposals to a subdirectory — and the proposal's outputs and any workspace build definition sit beside it in its folder. If you cannot find it, say the script did not run and name what is therefore unverified — never present your own reading of the file as the script's result. python3 stands for any Python 3.11 or newer that answers here (python, py -3, or a versioned name such as python3.13); keep the one that worked for the rest of the conversation.
What ships with it
11 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.

proposal-publish is a skill published in the GitHub repository hutzelmann/thesis-proposal-skills (9 stars, last pushed 6d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 100 tokens to every session and 3,867 once invoked, about $0.0004 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 2026-08-31.
