OpenShell is a runtime for autonomous AI agents that executes them in sandboxed environments governed by declarative policies. It is used to restrict agents' access to files, credentials, data, and network resources, and the catalogue includes skills and workflows for operating and contributing to it.

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 | $0.00063 | $0.01406 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00025 | $0.00562 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00013 | $0.00281 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00141 |
Grade A, and why
create-github-issue 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 1mo 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 — 165 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Create GitHub Issue
Create issues on GitHub using the gh CLI. Issues must conform to the project's issue templates.
Prerequisites
The gh CLI must be authenticated (gh auth status).
Issue Templates
This project uses YAML form issue templates. When creating issues, match the template structure so the output aligns with what GitHub renders.
Bug Reports
Do not add a type label automatically. Confirm that the human operator personally uses OpenShell and directly encountered the problem or needs the feature for a specific use case. If that first-hand attestation or concrete use case is missing, ask for it before creating the issue. Frame the issue entirely in terms of OpenShell. The body must include a User Story, Problem Statement, Impact / Why This Matters, and Acceptance Criteria, followed by bug-specific reproduction steps using only OpenShell deployments and environment details. Do not install third-party tools to demonstrate reproducibility. Logs are optional and must be concise and redacted. If the issue suggests a change to configuration, CLI, SDK, or other user experience, include a notional example of the proposed interaction for human review. Inspect current repository labels before applying any; use only labels whose meaning is clear.

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.

create-github-issue is a skill published in the GitHub repository NVIDIA/OpenShell (21,172 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 63 tokens to every session and 1,406 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5.5. 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.
