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 | $0.00048 | $0.00410 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00024 | $0.00205 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00010 | $0.00082 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00041 |
Grade A, and why
switchyard-docs 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 yesterday.
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
Switchyard Documentation
The published site is the subset of docs/ selected by mkdocs.yml. Strict MkDocs warnings fail
CI, so fix warnings rather than weakening validation.
Source Of Truth
| Concern | File |
|---|---|
| Navigation, exclusions, theme | mkdocs.yml |
| Source-link rewriting | mkdocs_hooks.py |
| Local commands | docs/Makefile |
| Build, preview, deployment | .github/workflows/docs.yml |
| Documentation dependencies | pyproject.toml docs group |
Workflow
- Decide whether a new page is public. Public pages go in
nav; internal notes go inexclude_docs. - Match the surrounding file naming and documentation style.
- Use relative links. For repository files outside
docs/, use paths relative to the Markdown file and letmkdocs_hooks.pyproduce the source URL. - Verify public examples use supported public imports and current CLI syntax.
- Run the strict build:
cd docs
make publish
CI Constraints
- Keep the docs workflow path-filtered.
- Keep default permissions read-only and grant write access only to deployment jobs.
- Keep PR previews limited to same-repository pull requests.
- Do not use
pull_request_targetto run untrusted documentation code with write permissions. - Build once and pass the
site/artifact to preview and deployment jobs. - Preserve
keep_files: trueso a main deployment does not remove PR previews.
Common strict-build fixes are direct: add or remove a missing nav entry, repair the relative link, or explicitly exclude an internal page. Do not disable strict mode.
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.

switchyard-docs is a skill published in the GitHub repository NVIDIA-NeMo/Switchyard (2,588 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 48 tokens to every session and 410 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.
