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 | $0.00053 | $0.01470 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00026 | $0.00735 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00011 | $0.00294 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00147 |
Grade A, and why
konnect-api-catalog 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 — 186 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Konnect API catalog workflow
Goal
Help an operator create, shape, and troubleshoot Catalog APIs and API packages before they become a Dev Portal publishing or consumer-access problem.
Own Catalog readiness diagnosis and object modeling for APIs, versions, specs, documentation, implementations, and packages. Do not absorb Dev Portal publication, app auth, or declarative delivery workflows beyond clear handoffs.
Tool Selection
- Use the shared
kong-konnectMCP server first for live inspection of APIs, versions, specs, documents, implementations, packages, and portal publications. - Prefer Catalog-oriented MCP reads before changing config. Useful live surfaces include API, version, implementation, package, and publication listings.
- Preserve the repository's chosen declarative toolchain when catalog objects
need to change: use
terraform-konnectfor HCL-managed Catalog resources andkongctl-declarativeonly when the repo already manages the surrounding Konnect workflow that way. - Use
deck-gatewayonly when the real missing link is Gateway-entity config behind an implementation or linked service. - If live Konnect state matters and
kong-konnectMCP is not connected, say so early and continue with user-provided artifacts or adjacent CLI/config sources. - This skill owns diagnosis of Catalog shape and readiness. It should not turn into a mutation playbook for Portal, app auth, or Gateway configuration.
References To Load
Load only the reference file that matches the active branch:
references/managed-api-readiness.md- Load when the main question is whether the API object, version, and upstream catalog shape are complete enough before publication.
references/spec-version-and-metadata.md- Load when the hard part is versioning model, spec quality, docs, or metadata alignment.
references/package-and-implementation-boundaries.md- Load when packages, implementations, Gateway Service linkage, or package-versus-API modeling is the real issue.
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.

konnect-api-catalog is a skill published in the GitHub repository Kong/ai-marketplace (5 stars, last pushed 23d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 53 tokens to every session and 1,470 once invoked, about $0.0003 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 2026-08-31.
