tracelet-instrument

tracelet-instrument is a skill for Claude Code from jnMetaCode/local-agent-toolkit. It costs 51 tokens per session (707 once invoked), scanned A, original, no licence file.

A skill for adding OpenTelemetry tracing to an AI agent or language-model application. OpenTelemetry is a standard way to record what an application does so its runs can be inspected.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to instrument an agent or language-model app, watch runs in Tracelet, or investigate what an agent actually did.
Why use it?
It makes agent activity visible, which helps find unexpected steps and diagnose failures.

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

tracelet-instrument 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 7d 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 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.
