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.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00156 | $0.01432 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00078 | $0.00716 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00031 | $0.00286 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00016 | $0.00143 |
Grade A, and why
servicenow-platform-utilities 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 12d 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 — 114 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
ServiceNow Platform Utilities (cross-domain helpers)
A grab-bag of platform-level helpers that don't belong to any one domain: email, flow introspection/visualization, classification & app metadata, activity subscriptions, and MetricBase writes. Six condensed tools.
When to use
- Send a notification email from the instance (
send_email). - Render a deployed flow to a Mermaid diagram, collect a flow graph from roots, or
read a flow's metadata (
servicenow_flows). - Look up a record's data-classification (
get_data_classification). - Fetch application metadata (
get_application). - List activity subscriptions (
get_activity_subscriptions). - Insert a MetricBase time-series point (
metricbase_insert).
When NOT to use
- Generic table CRUD / aggregate / raw REST →
servicenow-table-api. - App deploy, scans, update sets, ATF →
servicenow-cicd-devops. - Bulk row ingest / attachments / batch →
servicenow-import-attachment-batch. - HR profiles / PPM inserts →
servicenow-hr-ppm. - Authoring/editing flows locally (Flow Designer dev-tooling) → the sibling skill
servicenow-workflow-studio;workflow_to_mermaidhere complements it by rendering an already-deployed flow.
Prerequisites & environment
Connect via the mcp-client skill against the servicenow-api MCP server.
| Variable | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|
SERVICENOW_INSTANCE |
✅ | Instance URL (alias SERVICENOW_URL) |
SERVICENOW_USERNAME |
✅ | Basic-auth user |
SERVICENOW_PASSWORD |
✅ | Basic-auth password |
SERVICENOW_CLIENT_ID / SERVICENOW_CLIENT_SECRET |
optional | OAuth2 |
SERVICENOW_SSL_VERIFY |
optional | TLS verification toggle |
Full env/tag matrix (do not re-document here): the mcp-client reference
agent-tools/mcp-client/references/servicenow-api.md. MCP_TOOL_MODE
(condensed|verbose|both) selects the condensed surface (used below) vs. the
one-to-one verbose tools.
Tools & actions
Prefer the condensed tools; each takes action + a params_json JSON string
whose keys are passed straight to the client method.
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.
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.

servicenow-platform-utilities is a skill published in the GitHub repository Knuckles-Team/servicenow-api (19 stars, last pushed 14d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 156 tokens to every session and 1,432 once invoked, about $0.0008 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
