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 | $0.00159 | $0.03837 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00064 | $0.01535 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00032 | $0.00767 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00016 | $0.00384 |
Grade A, and why
skill-creator 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 1mo 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.
This is a copy
95% identical to skill-creator — 95 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

Skill Creator
This skill provides guidance for creating effective skills.
About Skills
Skills are modular, self-contained packages that extend agent capabilities by providing specialized knowledge, workflows, and tools. Think of them as "onboarding guides" for specific domains or tasks—they transform a general-purpose agent into a specialized agent equipped with procedural knowledge and domain expertise.
Skill Location for Deepagents
In deepagents CLI, skills are stored in ~/.deepagents/<agent>/skills/ where <agent> is your agent configuration name (default is agent). For example, with the default configuration, skills live at:
~/.deepagents/agent/skills/
├── skill-name-1/
│ └── SKILL.md
├── skill-name-2/
│ └── SKILL.md
└── ...
What Skills Provide
- Specialized workflows - Multi-step procedures for specific domains
- Tool integrations - Instructions for working with specific file formats or APIs
- Domain expertise - Company-specific knowledge, schemas, business logic
- Bundled resources - Scripts, references, and assets for complex and repetitive tasks
Core Principles
Concise is Key
The context window is a public good. Skills share the context window with everything else the agent needs: system prompt, conversation history, other Skills' metadata, and the actual user request.
Default assumption: The agent is already very capable. Only add context the agent doesn't already have. Challenge each piece of information: "Does the agent really need this explanation?" and "Does this paragraph justify its token cost?"
Prefer concise examples over verbose explanations.
Set Appropriate Degrees of Freedom
Match the level of specificity to the task's fragility and variability:
High freedom (text-based instructions): Use when multiple approaches are valid, decisions depend on context, or heuristics guide the approach.
Medium freedom (pseudocode or scripts with parameters): Use when a preferred pattern exists, some variation is acceptable, or configuration affects behavior.
What ships with it
2 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.

skill-creator is a skill published in the GitHub repository HyunjunJeon/Deepagent-research-context-engineering (53 stars, last pushed 9mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 159 tokens to every session and 3,837 once invoked, about $0.0006 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 95% identical to skill-creator, differing in 95 lines, and is treated as a copy.
Other skills, from other repositories
foundry-hosted-agent-validation
Step-by-step process for validating a Python Foundry hosted agent sample (under python/samples/04-hosting/foundry-hosted-agents/) end to end — running it locally (native runtime and azd ai agent run) and after deploying it to an Azure AI Foundry project with azd. Use this when asked to validate a hosted agent sample.
python-feature-lifecycle
Guidance for package and feature lifecycle in the Agent Framework Python codebase, including stage meanings, feature-stage decorators, feature enums, and how to move APIs from one stage to the next.
python-development
Coding standards, conventions, and patterns for developing Python code in the Agent Framework repository. Use this when writing or modifying Python source files in the python/ directory.
foundry-config-setup
Resolve missing setup caused by a hardcoded Foundry project endpoint or model in a sample. Use when a sample fails because it uses a placeholder/hardcoded projectendpoint (for example "https://your-project.services.ai.azure.com") or a hardcoded model instead of reading them from the environment.
security-conductor
Operating procedure for the kirocrew-security-conductor agent. Use when a security conductor session is seeded, inspected or debugged. Run vulnerability discovery on one target as a supervised fleet — one auditor per attack surface, an independent verifier per finding, two human gates.
artifact-deploy
One-click deploy a user's pre-built app/artifact into their OWN AWS account and get a global public HTTPS link (Vercel-like), with a default TTL and promote-to-persistent. Use when the user says "deploy this", "ship this demo", "give me a public link", "share this externally", or "deploy to AWS".
