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 | $0.00045 | $0.00396 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00023 | $0.00198 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00009 | $0.00079 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00040 |
Grade A, and why
typeagent-macros 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 2d 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
TypeAgent Macros
Use the typeagent-macros MCP server for macro catalog and lifecycle work.
Run A Macro
- Use
search_macrosorlist_macrosto find the macro. - Use
inspect_macroandget_macro_requirementsbefore execution. Collect all required inputs without exposing secret values in chat. Inputs may fill nested argument-template fields, and later steps may bind values from earlier results. - Call
run_macrowithpreference: "auto". - For
completed, report the sanitized result. Forfailedorcancelled, report the structured failure without inventing a repair. ApostconditionFailedresult means the live tool output no longer has the shape captured by the approved procedure. - For
agentRequired, invoke theTypeAgent Macro Runneragent with the complete returnedlaunchobject. Do not manually paraphrase or reconstruct the launch payload.
Deterministic replay and agent-guided execution are whole-macro choices. Never replay a prefix before handing the remaining steps to the runner.
Adaptation
The runner may submit a changed successful procedure through
submit_macro_candidate. Candidate submission creates a separately reviewable
draft. It never changes or approves the source version. Permission denial,
cancellation, and timeout are terminal outcomes, not adaptation signals.
Lifecycle
- Create drafts only from explicitly captured traces.
- Validate drafts before asking the user to approve them.
- Approval is always an explicit user action.
- Use
get_macro_runonly for sanitized persisted deterministic run evidence.
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.

typeagent-macros is a skill published in the GitHub repository microsoft/TypeAgent (738 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 45 tokens to every session and 396 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.
