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 | $0.00080 | $0.00826 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00040 | $0.00413 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00016 | $0.00165 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00008 | $0.00083 |
Grade A, and why
canvas-week-plan 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 11d 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 70 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Canvas Week Plan
Read-only planning skill. Never modify, submit, or post anything: only report what the canvas-api-mcp tools return.
Prerequisites
The canvas-api-mcp MCP server must be installed and connected in the current client.
If tool calls to whats_due, my_courses, or my_submission are not available, tell
the user to install it first: https://mcp.johannsenlum.com/canvas-lms/install
Procedure
-
Get upcoming work. Call the MCP tool
whats_dueto retrieve assignments/items due in the near term. Do not guess or estimate due dates: use only what the tool returns. -
Resolve course names. Call
my_coursesand join each item from step 1 to its course name/code using the course id. Do not invent a course name if it can't be matched: show the raw course id instead and note it's unresolved. -
Disambiguate anything unclear. For any item where submission/completion state is ambiguous or missing from step 1's output, call
my_submissionfor that specific assignment to get its authoritative submitted/graded state. Do not assume "not shown" means "not submitted". Check before reporting. -
Build the table. Present the results as a single table ordered by due date (soonest first), with these columns:
- Course (resolved name, or course id + "(unresolved)")
- Assignment
- Due date/time
- Days remaining (compute from the due date and current time only, do not invent a "today" if it isn't available from context)
- Submitted state (Submitted / Not submitted / Graded / Unknown, from tool output only)
-
Flag risk items, called out clearly below the table (not buried in it):
- Anything due within 48 hours that is NOT submitted: flag explicitly, e.g. "DUE SOON, UNSUBMITTED".
- Any two or more items that share the same due date/day ("same-day collision"): list them together so the student sees the pile-up.
-
Check whether
whats_dueactually answered. If it returns{"error": true, ...}with noitemskey, every source failed to load: that is not an empty schedule. Say Canvas could not be reached and quote thewarnings; never turn a failed read into "nothing is due".
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.
