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 | $0.00050 | $0.00317 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00025 | $0.00159 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00010 | $0.00063 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00032 |
Grade B, and why
eli-status scanned grade B 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 8d 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.
Reads agent configuration directoriesmediumAgent snooping
.claude/, .codex/, .gemini/ hold keys, settings and other credentials a mod has no legitimate need for.
cat .claude/eli5-state.json 2>/dev/null || echo "none" What it actually says
ELI5 Status
Report the current eli5 communication mode.
Steps
-
Check the state file:
cat .claude/eli5-state.json 2>/dev/null || echo "none" -
Format the response based on the output:
If state file exists:
eli5-mode ● active
Level [label from state file, e.g. "15-year-old"]
Command [level from state file, e.g. /eli-teen]
Then add one sentence in the current level's style confirming mode is active.
If no state file or "none":
eli5-mode ○ inactive
Level —
Then one normal sentence: "No eli5 mode active. Say 'eli5' or use /eli5, /eli-kid, /eli-teen, /eli-adult, or /eli-expert to activate."
If expert level is active, also check for saved field:
cat .claude/eli5-expert-field 2>/dev/null || echo ""
If found, include: Field [saved field]
Note
Report only — do not change the current mode.
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.

eli-status is a skill published in the GitHub repository kavyabhand/claude-eli5 (21 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 50 tokens to every session and 317 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it B with 1 finding (reads agent configuration directories). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
