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.

SkillSpector: 1 finding, up to high
These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

Stripping safety caveats hides risk from the user and is a common jailbreak preamble.Fix: Remove instructions that suppress warnings, disclaimers, or ethical commentary. Let the agent surface safety-relevant caveats to the user.
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 | $0.00095 | $0.01445 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00048 | $0.00723 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00019 | $0.00289 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00010 | $0.00145 |
Grade A, and why
recreate-scientific-figure 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 12d 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 — 115 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Recreate Scientific Figure
Coordinate one backend-neutral four-role protocol. Keep the roles logically separate even when one agent performs all four. Let the user choose draw.io, Microsoft PowerPoint, or WPS Presentation; the choice changes the implementation, never the quality contract.
Use $recreate-scientific-figure-in-drawio as the draw.io Drawer adapter and $edit-powerpoint-live as the PowerPoint/WPS Drawer adapter. Use $audit-scientific-figure as the Reviewer and $correct-scientific-figure as the Corrector.
Preserve backend parity
Require both backends to deliver the same semantic capabilities:
- editable text, shapes, symbols, panels, lines, arrows, and attached connectors;
- editable tables and regular charts: native in COM/OOXML PowerPoint, editable shape composites in Office.js PowerPoint or draw.io when their live APIs cannot insert a native chart;
- stable object names/ids, duplication, grouping, z-order, exact alignment, and equal distribution;
- one picture object per irreducible raster field, with all reconstructable overlays rebuilt separately;
- visible object-by-object construction in draw.io, PowerPoint COM, and connected PowerPoint Office.js; explicitly labeled, checkpointed, and verification-aware file refresh in OOXML fallback mode;
- structure audit plus renderer audit after every region and after the whole figure;
- an editable source file and requested exports.
Do not relax a rule because one backend represents the object differently.
Designer handoff
Treat the supplied reference as the design authority. Extract its design; do not redesign it for convenience.
- Inspect the full-resolution reference and readable local details.
- Record the reference size, aspect ratio, reading direction, panel bounds, coordinate transform, palette, typography, and z-order.
- Assign every region a stable id, bounding box, title, construction order, incoming links, and outgoing links.
- Inventory every visible item as editable text, editable shape, free line, attached connector, editable table/chart, repeated motif, or irreducible raster field.
- Decompose grids, prediction comparisons, image stacks, mask rows, and multi-image panels into individual raster fields plus editable titles, frames, grids, legends, arrows, axes, and annotations.
- Record unreadable text and obscured boundaries as explicit ambiguities. Never invent content.
What ships with it
1 file 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.

recreate-scientific-figure is a skill published in the GitHub repository icebird1998/scientific-illustrator (796 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 95 tokens to every session and 1,445 once invoked, about $0.0005 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.
