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 | $0.00022 | $0.01113 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00011 | $0.00557 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00004 | $0.00223 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00111 |
Grade A, and why
bible-nlt-lookup scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 11d ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 129 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
NLT Bible Lookup
Look up Bible passages, parse references, and search Scripture using the NLT API at https://api.nlt.to/api.
Authentication
The API key is stored in the environment variable NLT_API_KEY. All requests must include key=$NLT_API_KEY as a query parameter.
Before any API call, verify the key exists:
[ -z "$NLT_API_KEY" ] && echo "ERROR: NLT_API_KEY not set" && exit 1
If missing, report the error and direct to: Settings > env > NLT_API_KEY in Claude global settings.
Supported Translations
Only these versions are available: NLT (default), NLTUK, NTV, KJV. Other translations (ESV, NIV, NASB, etc.) are not available through this API. If a user requests an unsupported translation, report which versions are available.
Utility Scripts
Two scripts handle env var validation, URL encoding, API calls, error handling, and HTML conversion automatically.
Passage lookup:
bash scripts/nlt-lookup.sh "John 3:16-17"
bash scripts/nlt-lookup.sh "Romans 8:28-30" KJV
bash scripts/nlt-lookup.sh "Psalm 23;Psalm 91"
Keyword search:
bash scripts/nlt-search.sh "love one another"
bash scripts/nlt-search.sh "faith" KJV
Both scripts pipe through html-to-markdown when available, otherwise output raw HTML for direct parsing.

What ships with it
3 files 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.
