CCFA Skills is a family of agent skills that helps researchers develop the storyline and presentation of CCF-A research papers. It supports work across research ideas, literature, experiments, writing, figures, reviews, rebuttals, and submission while keeping the argument connected. The catalogue entry consists of the project's research-writing skills and plugin.
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.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00043 | $0.00986 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00022 | $0.00493 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00009 | $0.00197 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00099 |
Grade A, and why
ccf-common 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 63 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
CCF Common
Core Rule
This is the shared control module for the CCFA Skills family. Do not use it as a user-facing research assistant module. Use it to keep routing, handoff behavior, source provenance, private-material handling, and score-risk language consistent across ccf-* skills and ccf-skill-forger.
Invocation Controls
CCFA Handoff Mode: PARTIAL (Recommended). Follow metadata.ccf_skill_controls.handoff_question_mode and references/handoff-modes.md. This skill provides shared policy only; route ordinary research tasks to the owning skill in references/routing.md.
Shared Controls
Load only the file needed for the current maintenance task:
references/routing.md: Use to resolve which CCFA skill owns a request and to avoid trigger overlap.references/task-modes.md: Use for exploratory/quick/standard depth, authorization-aware continuation, selective context, host-supported parallel work, and GPT-6 adaptation.references/review-output-standards.md: Use to keep numeric scoring, multi-reviewer panels, score-change conditions, and visible output quality consistent.references/handoff-modes.md: Use to interpretmetadata.ccf_skill_controls.handoff_question_mode.references/privacy-and-evidence.md: Use when handling manuscripts, reviews, rebuttals, private drafts, literature searches, or evidence claims.references/source-registry.yaml: Use as the shared source inventory for venue rules, review methods, exemplar records, and research-workflow references.references/ccf-a-venue-map.md: Use when a non-writing skill needs venue-family mapping without depending onccf-paper-writer.references/skill-trigger-registry.yaml: Use as the canonical trigger registry; compare descriptions and agent prompts with the same ownership boundaries.references/artifact-contracts.md: Use whenever a skill creates or revises files; it defines ownership, canonical paths, overwrite-in-place defaults, and the narrow cases that require retained history.references/ccfa-yaml-contract.md: Use for the sharedccfa.yamlproject-state schema.
What ships with it
15 files 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.

ccf-common is a skill published in the GitHub repository mikubaka88/CCFA-Skills (2,356 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 43 tokens to every session and 986 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.
