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.

A badge with what this costs and how it scanned, read live from this page, so it follows the numbers instead of freezing them. Markdown for a README, HTML for a documentation site or a project page.

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 | $0.00032 | $0.00244 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00016 | $0.00122 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00006 | $0.00049 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00024 |
Grade A, and why
browser-research-agent 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 12d 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.
What it actually says
Browser Research Agent
Deprecated compatibility slug. Use
web-researchfor new work. This payload remains self-contained for clients that installed the historical name.
Run browser-backed research agents that capture evidence, citations, and source freshness.
When to Use
Use this Note when a Memoire or Studio run needs browser research, web evidence, citation capture, source comparison.
Workflow
- Start with primary sources, then use secondary sources only to find more primary evidence.
- Record source URL, access date, claim, confidence, and whether the fact is time-sensitive.
- Use screenshots for visual UI claims and direct API responses for machine-readable facts.
- Separate quotes from paraphrases and keep quoted excerpts short.
- Finish with an evidence table and a list of claims that still need verification.

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.

browser-research-agent is a skill published in the GitHub repository memi-design/design-skills (7 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 32 tokens to every session and 244 once invoked, about $0.0002 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 2026-08-31.
