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 | $0.00063 | $0.02048 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00032 | $0.01024 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00013 | $0.00410 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00205 |
Grade B, and why
neo-setup 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 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.
Asks for rootmediumPrivilege escalation
A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

Neo MCP Setup
Use this skill when a user needs the Python neo-mcp package installed and connected to an MCP-enabled coding agent. The workflow is pip-only and supports Linux, macOS, and WSL.
Non-negotiable behavior
- Do not provide npm installation commands. Configure the Python package and
neo-mcpexecutable only. - Native Windows PowerShell and
cmd.exeare unsupported because the Python daemon uses POSIX shell and container-path semantics. If the user is on native Windows, explain that WSL is required and stop before installing. - Never print, echo, log, or paste a user's
NEO_SECRET_KEY. Redact it from command output and reports. Never ask the user to commit an MCP config containing the key. - Make the smallest necessary change. Back up an existing client config before editing it, preserve unrelated servers, and tell the user which file changed.
- Use the user's explicit project path when provided. Otherwise use
git rev-parse --show-toplevel; only fall back to the current directory when no repository exists. - Do not claim that backend status proves local execution. Use
neo_get_execution_evidenceandneo_verify_taskwhen local proof is required.
Setup workflow
Follow these steps in order. Do not skip verification.
1. Check platform and project root
Run read-only checks:
uname -s
python3 --version
git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null || pwd
Require Python 3.11 or newer. On native Windows, report:
Native Windows execution is unsupported. Install and run Neo inside WSL, then configure the MCP client to use the WSL
neo-mcpexecutable.
2. Install the Python package
Prefer an isolated install:
python3 -m pip install --upgrade neo-mcp
# Or, if pipx is already installed:
pipx install --force neo-mcp
If Linux returns externally-managed-environment, do not use sudo pip. Use a virtual environment or:
python3 -m pip install --user --break-system-packages neo-mcp
Check the executable without exposing credentials:
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.

neo-setup is a skill published in the GitHub repository NeoAIResearch/neo-mcp (2 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 63 tokens to every session and 2,048 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it B with 1 finding (asks for root). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
