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 | $0.00062 | $0.00423 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00031 | $0.00211 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00012 | $0.00085 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00042 |
Grade A, and why
ci-flake-quarantine 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 5d 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
CI Flake Quarantine Skill
Use this skill when a test is flaky enough to temporarily isolate, but not enough
to hide the underlying defect. It pairs with self-healing-ci for remediation and
with issue-triage for tracking ownership.
Inputs
- Flaky test name or job identifier
- Failure history and retry evidence
- Target quarantine duration or expiry policy
- Owner or team responsible for follow-up
Workflow
- Confirm the failure pattern is non-deterministic.
- Check whether automated remediation has already been attempted.
- Quarantine only with a clear expiry date and owner.
- Record the quarantine scope and the condition that removes it.
- Re-run the unaffected test slice and report the reduced blast radius.
Output
## Flake Quarantine Plan
- Test: <name>
- Evidence: <summary>
- Quarantine expires: <date>
- Owner: <team>
### Follow-up
1. Investigate root cause
2. Remove quarantine after green verification
Guardrails
- Never quarantine a test without repeat evidence.
- Never make quarantine permanent by default.
- Keep the failing signal visible through issue tracking.
- Prefer remediation over quarantine when the root cause is already known.

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.

ci-flake-quarantine is a skill published in the GitHub repository ivegamsft/basecoat (4 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 62 tokens to every session and 423 once invoked, about $0.0003 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 2026-09-03.
