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 | $0.00067 | $0.02028 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00034 | $0.01014 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00013 | $0.00406 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00007 | $0.00203 |
Grade B, and why
whisper scanned grade B with 1 finding 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.
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.
Asks for rootmediumPrivilege escalation
A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

Quick start
Installation
# Requires Python 3.8-3.11
pip install -U openai-whisper
# Requires ffmpeg
# macOS: brew install ffmpeg
# Ubuntu: sudo apt install ffmpeg
# Windows: choco install ffmpeg
Basic transcription
import whisper
# Load model
model = whisper.load_model("base")
# Transcribe
result = model.transcribe("audio.mp3")
# Print text
print(result["text"])
# Access segments
for segment in result["segments"]:
print(f"[{segment['start']:.2f}s - {segment['end']:.2f}s] {segment['text']}")
Model sizes
# Available models
models = ["tiny", "base", "small", "medium", "large", "turbo"]
# Load specific model
model = whisper.load_model("turbo") # Fastest, good quality
| Model | Parameters | English-only | Multilingual | Speed | VRAM |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| tiny | 39M | ✓ | ✓ | ~32x | ~1 GB |
| base | 74M | ✓ | ✓ | ~16x | ~1 GB |
| small | 244M | ✓ | ✓ | ~6x | ~2 GB |
| medium | 769M | ✓ | ✓ | ~2x | ~5 GB |
| large | 1550M | ✗ | ✓ | 1x | ~10 GB |
| turbo | 809M | ✗ | ✓ | ~8x | ~6 GB |
Recommendation: Use turbo for best speed/quality, base for prototyping
Transcription options
Language specification
# Auto-detect language
result = model.transcribe("audio.mp3")
# Specify language (faster)
result = model.transcribe("audio.mp3", language="en")
# Supported: en, es, fr, de, it, pt, ru, ja, ko, zh, and 89 more
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.
