Claude Octopus is an orchestration project that sends research, design, and coding tasks to Claude Code and other AI model providers so their results can be compared. Developers use it for multi-model work, disagreement detection, reviews, persistent context, and an optional workflow that moves from discovery through delivery. The catalogue entries are its commands, skills, agents, instructions, hooks, plugins, and settings.
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.

A badge with what this costs and how it scanned, read live from this page, so it follows the numbers instead of freezing them. Markdown for a README, HTML for a documentation site or a project page.

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 | $0.00023 | $0.01392 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00012 | $0.00696 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00005 | $0.00278 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00139 |
Grade A, and why
skill-deck 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 6d 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 — 192 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Slide Deck Generator
Generate professional slide decks from briefs with optional research, outline approval, and PPTX export.
Prerequisites
The document-skills plugin MUST be installed for PPTX rendering:
/plugin list | grep document-skills
If not installed, tell the user:
The document-skills plugin is required for PPTX generation.
Install it with: /plugin install document-skills@anthropic-agent-skills
Pipeline (4 Steps)
Step 1: Gather Brief
Parse the user's topic and description. Use AskUserQuestion to clarify:
Question 1 - Audience:
- Executives / Board
- Engineers / Technical
- Investors / Fundraising
- General / Mixed
Question 2 - Slide count target:
- Short (5-10 slides)
- Standard (10-20 slides)
- Extended (20+ slides)
Question 3 - Tone:
- Formal / Business
- Technical / Detailed
- Casual / Conversational
If the user already provided clear context (e.g., "10-slide investor pitch deck about our Series A"), skip questions where the answer is obvious.
Step 2: Research (Optional)
If the topic needs external research or context gathering:
- Use the Task tool with
Exploreorgeneral-purposesubagent to gather relevant information - For deeper multi-AI research, suggest: "For comprehensive multi-provider research, run
/octo:discover [topic]first, then/octo:deckto build slides from the results" - If the user provides their own content, notes, or a research file, skip this step entirely
This step is OPTIONAL. Many decks are built from the user's own knowledge or existing documents.
Step 3: Generate Outline
Build a slide-by-slide outline in markdown format. Structure:
## Slide 1: [Title Slide]
- Presentation title
- Subtitle / Date / Author
## Slide 2: [Agenda / Overview]
- Key topics to cover
## Slide 3: [First Content Section]
- Bullet point 1
- Bullet point 2
- Bullet point 3
## Slide N: [Summary / Next Steps]
- Key takeaways
- Call to action
IMPORTANT: Present the outline to the user for approval using AskUserQuestion:
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.

skill-deck is a skill published in the GitHub repository nyldn/claude-octopus (4,050 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 23 tokens to every session and 1,392 once invoked, about $0.0001 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.
