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 | $0.00080 | $0.00437 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00040 | $0.00218 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00016 | $0.00087 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00008 | $0.00044 |
Grade A, and why
show-math 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 3d 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 it actually says
Show math
CLI transcripts cannot render LaTeX. When the user should see a formula, run mathshow. Do not wrap the agent. Do not generate an image of the formula.
Command
Prefer npx so no global install is required:
npx --yes mathshow -- '<latex>'
If mathshow is already on PATH:
mathshow -- '<latex>'
From this repo while developing:
node bin/mathshow.js -- '<latex>'
| Input | Example |
|---|---|
| One formula | npx --yes mathshow -- 'E = mc^2' |
| Several | npx --yes mathshow -- 'E = mc^2' 'F = ma' |
Markdown with $ / $$ / \[...\] |
npx --yes mathshow notes.md |
--no-open only in CI. Default must open the KaTeX browser preview.
Rules
- MUST run
mathshowwhen the reply contains math the user needs to see - MUST pass real TeX (
\int,\frac,\sum), not Unicode approximations as the source - NEVER skip the preview because the transcript already shows
$...$ - NEVER use image-generation tools to draw equations
- NEVER paste a screenshot instead of TeX
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.

show-math is a skill published in the GitHub repository iCodeCraft/mathshow (2 stars, last pushed 19d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 80 tokens to every session and 437 once invoked, about $0.0004 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 2026-08-31.
