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 | $0.00029 | $0.01441 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00015 | $0.00720 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00006 | $0.00288 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00144 |
Grade B, and why
search-first 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 7d 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.
Reads agent configuration directoriesmediumAgent snooping
.claude/, .codex/, .gemini/ hold keys, settings and other credentials a mod has no legitimate need for.

94% identical to search-first — 9 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 162 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
/search-first — Research Before You Code
Systematizes the "search for existing solutions before implementing" workflow.
Trigger
Use this skill when:
- Starting a new feature that likely has existing solutions
- Adding a dependency or integration
- The user asks "add X functionality" and you're about to write code
- Before creating a new utility, helper, or abstraction

Decision Matrix
| Signal | Action |
|---|---|
| Exact match, well-maintained, MIT/Apache | Adopt — install and use directly |
| Partial match, good foundation | Extend — install + write thin wrapper |
| Multiple weak matches | Compose — combine 2-3 small packages |
| Nothing suitable found | Build — write custom, but informed by research |

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.
- 7d ago First seen · 162 lines · 29 tokens per session scan B 752b24a8a06b
search-first is a skill published in the GitHub repository majiang213/OpenClaw-MAS (5 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 29 tokens to every session and 1,441 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it B with 1 finding (reads agent configuration directories). It is 94% identical to search-first, differing in 9 lines, and is treated as a copy.
