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 | $0.00044 | $0.00333 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00022 | $0.00167 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00009 | $0.00067 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00033 |
Grade A, and why
oss-growth 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 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.
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
OSS Growth Skill
When to activate
- README hero / quickstart / examples sections
docs/content that affects first-run conversiontemplates/(starter projects shape the second-use experience)- Release notes / launch posts / social copy
- Edits to
WIP/growth-strategy.md - Issue templates that affect the contributor funnel
- Any reviewed change that the CEO flags as having growth implications
Key rules
WIP/growth-strategy.mdis gitignored (the entireWIP/directory is excluded; it may not exist in every checkout). Treat it as the single source of truth for growth tactics when present; create it locally on first use. Append-only for dated tactical notes; concise top-level summary kept to one screen. Never stage or commit anything underWIP/.- Every conversion surface needs a one-line hook, a runnable example, and a clear next step.
- Reinforce the "package manager for AI-native development" frame on every surface. Cut anything that dilutes it.
- Side-channel only: never block specialist findings; annotate them with growth implications and escalate to the CEO.
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.

oss-growth is a skill published in the GitHub repository microsoft/apm (3,687 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 44 tokens to every session and 333 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 2026-08-30.
