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 | $0.00109 | $0.00875 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00044 | $0.00350 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00022 | $0.00175 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00011 | $0.00088 |
Grade A, and why
prefer-local-cli-execute 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 13d 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.
The source is not reproduced here
A licence we could not identify
The repository carries a LICENSE file, but it is custom or dual enough that GitHub cannot name it and neither can this catalogue. Unknown terms are not permission, so the body is not copied here. Read the licence at the source and decide for yourself.
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.

Other skills, from other repositories
telegram-userbot
A skill for connecting to and working through the owner's personal Telegram account, rather than a Telegram bot. It can read personal chats, search messages, and send messages as the account owner after setup and consent.
skill-factory
A workflow that examines completed session work and turns reusable patterns into Claude Code skills.
session-wrap
Use when wrapping up a session before ending. 4 parallel subagents detect doc updates, repeated patterns, learning points, and follow-ups, then a verifier deduplicates and presents choices. Triggers on /session-wrap, session wrap, session cleanup, end of session.
watch
A monitoring and briefing workflow that checks unread Telegram messages, email, failed checks, and failed scheduled units, then decides what needs the owner's attention. It can also explain actions such as creating a task, delaying a reminder, ignoring an item, or fixing a failure.
insight
A scheduled daily practice that looks for a repeated manual task, builds and tests a small tool for it, and suggests the result. It can instead report a development issue when the agent cannot solve its own problem.
brief
Brief — the owner's day in review: tasks, calendar, mail, Telegram, every Connection and plugin, goals from CORE, weather. Load in a scheduled Brief turn, on /digest, and when the owner asks for a day plan, a review of the day or their open tasks.
