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 | $0.00076 | $0.01055 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00038 | $0.00528 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00015 | $0.00211 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00008 | $0.00105 |
Grade A, and why
mk:scout 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 9d 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 — 97 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Scout
Fast, parallel codebase exploration using Explore subagents. Divides the project into segments, searches them simultaneously, and returns a consolidated report.
When to Use
- Starting a feature that spans multiple directories
- User asks to "find", "locate", or "search for" files
- Before planning (Phase 1) on complex tasks — understand what exists first
- Debugging session requiring file relationship understanding
- User asks about project structure or where functionality lives
Workflow Integration
Operates in Phase 0 (Orient) and Phase 1 (Plan).
- Orchestrator invokes scout before planner on COMPLEX tasks
- Planner may invoke scout when the technical approach needs codebase understanding
- Developer may invoke scout when implementation touches unfamiliar areas
Quick Start
/mk:scout authentication → find all auth-related files
/mk:scout database migrations → find DB migration files
/mk:scout [any search target] → parallel search across codebase
Scout Process
- Analyze — parse user prompt, identify search targets (keywords, file types)
- Determine scale — calculate SCALE using formula in
references/scouting-strategy.md - Apply search scope — include Tier 1 always, Tier 2 if task-relevant, exclude Tier 3 always (see
references/search-scope.md) - Divide directories — assign each Explore agent a distinct scope (no overlap)
- Spawn agents — all in a single message for parallel execution (see
references/scouting-strategy.md) - Collect results — deduplicate, merge, note gaps/timeouts
- Build report — fill structured template (see
references/report-and-handoff.md) - Execute handoff — route to next agent per handoff protocol
References
Load these only when executing the corresponding step — not upfront.
| Reference | When to load | What it contains |
|---|---|---|
| search-scope.md | Step 3 — applying scope rules | Tier 1/2/3 directory lists, justification, exclusion patterns |
| scouting-strategy.md | Steps 2, 4, 5 — spawning agents | SCALE formula, directory division rules, Explore agent prompt template, parallel execution, file reading patterns |
| report-and-handoff.md | Steps 7, 8 — writing output | Report template with all sections, handoff protocol per phase, memory integration, context budget |
What ships with it
3 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.

mk:scout is a skill published in the GitHub repository ngocsangyem/MeowKit (14 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 76 tokens to every session and 1,055 once invoked, about $0.0004 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 2026-09-03.
