kv-get

kv-get is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from KeyArgo/custodian-kernel. It costs 14 tokens per session (306 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A read-only tool for retrieving a stored value from the Custodian key-value store. A key-value store saves information by pairing a name, called a key, with a value.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to fetch configuration, state, or other data saved under a known key.
Why use it?
It provides a direct way to look up saved information without searching through files or database tables. It does not change the stored value.

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

kv-get 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 4d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/execute.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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 it actually says

Kv Get

Retrieve a value by key from the Custodian KV store

Authority band

This tool runs under L0 authority in the Custodian kernel. Read-only; no real-world effects — always autonomous.

Inputs

Parameter Type Required Description
(see execute.py for full schema)

Configuration

No additional configuration required — uses credentials already wired to Custodian.

Usage

custodian tools run kv-get --param value

Custodian governance

Every call to this tool passes through the Custodian kernel authority check before executing. The kernel verifies the current authority band, checks spending caps where applicable, logs the action to the OCSF audit trail, and escalates to a human operator if the action exceeds the declared band.

Adding this tool to any Hermes agent session requires no code changes — declare custodian-band: L0 in the SKILL.md frontmatter and the kernel wraps it automatically.

Files

What ships with it

1 file 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.

Changes

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.
