Made for: Claude Code, Codex.

Per session 56 Skills are progressive disclosure: only the name and description are preloaded; the body loads when the skill is used.

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

skill-create 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 yesterday.

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.

Skill Creation & Validation

Create complete, well-structured Claude Code skills. Generates scaffolds, validates skill completeness, and ensures quality standards.

When to Use This Skill

  • Creating a new skill from scratch
  • Auditing existing skills for completeness
  • Validating a skill before deployment
  • Understanding skill best practices
  • User asks "create skill", "new skill", or "validate skill"

Questions to Ask

  1. Skill category: Code-heavy, Auth, Config, Knowledge, or Orchestration?
  2. Core purpose: What problem does this skill solve? (1-2 sentences)
  3. Trigger words: What keywords should invoke this skill?
  4. Reference code: Will it include Dart templates, or just guides?
  5. Validation needs: What should the check script verify?

Quick Reference

What ships with it

8 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.

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.
