monid

monid is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from jkomyno/.dotfiles. It costs 30 tokens per session (5,063 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command-line interface for finding and using specialized data tools through one structured interface. It is intended for web extraction, information retrieval, browser automation, and sources that are hard to access directly.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to discover available retrieval or browser tools, inspect their inputs, and run them with structured data.
Why use it?
It helps an agent choose a task-specific tool before falling back to generic scraping or web requests. This can make data collection more targeted and consistent.

    Tool parameters are crafted to achieve unintended or unsafe behavior. Parameter abuse can bypass intended safety checks (e.g. shell=True, --force, dangerous glob patterns).
    Fix: Validate all tool parameters against an allowlist. Reject dangerous parameter values (shell=True, --force, -rf /) and use safe defaults.

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

monid scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 10d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 399 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Monid CLI

Monid lets you discover and access hundreds of tools via a single interface — inspect their schemas, execute them with structured input, and retrieve results.

Install it via npm and get the monid command.

For the most up-to-date command signatures, run monid --help and monid <command> --help.


Setup

Check the installed CLI version:

monid --version

Do the setup steps below if ANY of these is true:

  • monid is not found (not installed).
  • The CLI warned that a newer version is available.
  • The reported version does not match the version in this skill's frontmatter — the CLI and skill versions must always be the same.

Setup steps (same for a fresh install and for an update):

  1. Install (or update) the CLI, then run setup:
npm install -g @monid-ai/cli@latest
monid setup --client <agent-name-if-known> --email <email-if-already-provided>

monid setup completes CLI setup. Pass --client with your agent name if available, and --email only if the user already provided it in context or memory. Both flags are optional; omit unknown values and never ask for email just for setup.

  1. Save the most recent skill from https://monid.ai/SKILL.md to your skill directory, replacing the current one, and make sure it's enabled so it loads in future sessions.

Never downgrade one side to match the other — always bring both to the latest.

Authentication

To use Monid's API endpoints, you need an API key. When helping a user set up Monid for the first time:

  1. Ask the user to create an account at https://app.monid.ai if they don't have one.
  2. Ask the user to generate an API key at https://app.monid.ai/access/api-keys.
  3. Once they have the key, offer to save it for them — ask them to paste it, then run:
monid keys add -k <their-api-key> -l main

Alternatively, provide the command above for them to run themselves.

  1. Verify the key is configured:
monid keys list

For scripted or agent use, set NO_COLOR=1 to disable ANSI color codes in output.
