open-knowledge-format

open-knowledge-format is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from magnus919/agent-skills. It costs 82 tokens per session (1,878 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A specification for packaging knowledge as a portable folder of Markdown files with structured metadata and links. It is intended for knowledge bundles that people and AI agents can read, share, and version like ordinary files.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to define, validate, or convert collections of knowledge into Open Knowledge Format bundles for agent knowledge packs, wikis, playbooks, APIs, or other documented concepts.
Why use it?
It gives teams a consistent format for organising information without requiring a central service or specialised storage system. The files remain easy to inspect, edit, and distribute through normal file and version-control tools.

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

open-knowledge-format 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 9d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/okf-bundle-validate.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 168 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Open Knowledge Format (OKF) — v0.1

Google Cloud published the Open Knowledge Format v0.1 on June 12, 2026 — an open specification that formalizes the LLM-wiki pattern into a portable, vendor-neutral format for AI agent knowledge.

The design is intentionally minimal: a directory of markdown files with YAML frontmatter. No schema registry, no central authority, no required tooling.

"If you can cat a file, you can read OKF; if you can git clone a repo, you can ship it."

Core Concepts

Concept Definition
Knowledge Bundle A self-contained directory tree of markdown files. The unit of distribution.
Concept A single unit of knowledge — one markdown file. May describe a table, a metric, a playbook, an API, or any idea.
Concept ID The file path with .md stripped (e.g. tables/users.md has ID tables/users).
Frontmatter YAML block at the top of each file with structured metadata.
Body Standard markdown content after the frontmatter.
Link A markdown link from one concept to another — expresses relationships.

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.
