A set of tools and instructions for finding and reading current information on the web, including pages that need a logged-in browser or JavaScript to work.

Live web research, fetching public pages, checking dynamic websites, browsing social sites, and working with login-required pages.

It helps avoid relying on outdated knowledge or guessing when a webpage cannot be read normally. It also keeps sources and dates visible when freshness matters.

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.

Token cost

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	$0.00032	$0.00164
Opus 5	$0.00016	$0.00082
Sonnet 5	$0.00006	$0.00033
Haiku 4.5	$0.00003	$0.00016

Security

Grade A, and why

web-access 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 yesterday.

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

Web Access

Use network tools deliberately:

Start with the exact user goal and identify what must be current.
Use web_search for discovery and web_fetch for public static pages.
Prefer Chrome DevTools MCP when a page needs login state, JavaScript rendering, or browser inspection.
Keep sources and dates visible in the answer when recency matters.
If a fetched page is empty because of SPA or anti-bot behavior, switch to browser/MCP instead of guessing.

Changes

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.

web-access is a skill published in the GitHub repository itwanger/PaiCLI-Python (76 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 32 tokens to every session and 164 once invoked, about $0.0002 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.
