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 | $0.00056 | $0.01544 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00028 | $0.00772 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00011 | $0.00309 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00154 |
Grade A, and why
kx-tabs 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 11d 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 — 79 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
KX Tabs
key: "Tabs" · definitionId: "26" · version: "v2.14.0"
Also read kx-dashboard-core for: envelope, screen/widget wrapper, data sources, ViewState, binding patterns, actions, and the pre-flight checklist.
The Tabs component is a container: it does not render data itself, it groups other components (Datagrid, ChartGL, Panel, Text, …) into named, switchable tabs. Each child is assigned to a tab by containerId.
This skill uses progressive disclosure: the hazards, workflow, and validation rules are here; the bulky JSON schema, field tables, worked examples, and regression tests live in reference/. Read only the reference file relevant to your current step.
Reference Files
| File | Read it when you need… |
|---|---|
| reference/component-schema.md | The component identity, full options envelope (components[], widgets[], Items[], Selection, dropdownPossibleValues, Basics, Style, Alignment, format), field tables, the UUID checklist, NL→JSON mapping rules, and ViewState-on-switch wiring. |
| reference/examples.md | Five worked NLQ → JSON examples (empty tabs, a child per tab, default tab, ViewState-on-switch, hidden/PDF-excluded tabs) to copy from. |
| reference/nlq-tests.md | Maintainer NLQ regression queries to retest on every MR that changes this skill. |
When to Use This Skill
- User asks for tabs, a tabbed interface, tabbed navigation/content/layout/view, a tab control, tab panel, tabbed sections, or tabbed pages
- User wants to group several existing components (grids, charts, panels, text) into switchable tabs
- User wants a dashboard area that opens on a specific tab, hides a tab, excludes a tab from PDF, or publishes the active tab to a ViewState
⚠️ Tabs Hazards
components[]andwidgets[]must BOTH be populated. Empty arrays = blank tabs. Every child appears in both arrays, each withcontainerIdset to the target tab'sItems[n].Id.components[]= lightweight copy (minimal options — just enough to register the child).widgets[]= full definition (complete options + gridlayout, used for rendering).containerIdmust be set in three places per child: thecomponents[]entry, thewidgets[]wrapper, andwidgets[].component. All three carry the same tabItems[].Id.- The same child UUID is reused in
components[n].idandwidgets[n].component.id. Thewidgets[n].id(the wrapper) is a separate UUID. target_tabis a 0-based integer (0= first tab). Not a string, not the tab name.1opens on the second tab by default.Items[].Idmust be a unique GUID per tab. Generate fresh UUIDs — never reuse, never leave empty.dropdownPossibleValuesmirrorsItems[]but uses sequential numericIdstarting at0(0, 1, 2 …), not the GUIDs.- The Tabs component's own
containerIdisnull(unless the Tabs itself is nested inside another container). - An empty tab is valid — a tab with no assigned child renders as a blank panel. Only add children for tabs the user asked to fill.
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.

kx-tabs is a skill published in the GitHub repository KxSystems/kx-skills (16 stars, last pushed 8d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 56 tokens to every session and 1,544 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 2026-08-30.
