Gini Agent is a personal AI-agent runtime that manages conversations, runs, tasks, approvals, memory, skills, jobs, tools, traces, audit events, and runtime health across its clients. It is for an agent that can remember, learn from task outcomes, and operate through desktop or mobile interfaces with user controls. Catalogue add-ons extend the runtime with skills and instructions.
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 | $0.00034 | $0.01822 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00017 | $0.00911 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00007 | $0.00364 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00182 |
Grade A, and why
install-skill scanned grade A 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 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.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.
compatibility: "Requires the gini gateway and curl. Skills that need extra binaries will fail health checks after install — surface that clearly." 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.
Install Skill
You install a SKILL.md the user supplied — pasted text, a URL, or a file path — into the runtime's user-skills directory. You also review risk and surface the credentials the new skill will need.
When To Use
- User says "install this skill" with content attached.
- User says "add this skill from this URL".
- User asks you to import a Hermes / OpenClaw / Claude-Code skill.
Procedure
-
Acquire the SKILL.md text:
- If the user pasted it, use the pasted content verbatim.
- If they supplied a URL, fetch with
curl -fsSL <url>. Refuse if the host is not HTTPS unless it'slocalhost. - If they supplied a file path, read the file.
-
Validate the SKILL.md against the spec without writing to disk:
bun run gini skill validate /tmp/incoming-skill.md- Exit code 0 → spec-compliant; continue.
- Exit code non-zero → repair the obvious issues (kebab-case the
name, trim the description, move legacy fields under
metadata.gini.*). If the issues are substantive (referencing a credential that isn't configured), see step 4.
-
Review the scripts and the body for risk. Read every sidecar file the user provided. Summarize for the user:
- Which commands the skill runs (
bash,curl,psql, …). - Which env vars / secrets it reads.
- Whether it can write outside its workspace.
- Whether it makes outbound network calls and to which hosts.
- Which commands the skill runs (
-
Resolve the credential requirements declared under
metadata.gini.requires.credentials(a list of credential names). An incoming skill may instead carry the legacymetadata.gini.requires.connectors(withprovider:items); that form is still accepted, but rewrite it torequires.credentialsnames (e.g.linear→LINEAR_API_KEY,google-oauth-desktop→google-workspace-oauth) when you install:- For each credential name, check
GET /api/connectorsto see whether the user already has a healthy credential with that name. - If the skill only needs local commands or an already-authenticated CLI
and does not need a credential-managed account, credential, remote API,
or local integration, remove the credential requirement. Record
command requirements under
metadata.gini.prerequisites.commands. - If a required credential is NOT yet configured: Default to forward motion — but forward motion means "install, then prompt," not "install, then stop." Keep the requirement and install the skill (step 6). You MUST then prompt for the missing credential(s) in chat at step 7 (which is mandatory); do not present an install / hold-off binary choice, and do not treat installation as the finish line.
- For each credential name, check
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.

install-skill is a skill published in the GitHub repository Open-Curiosity/gini-agent (1,914 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 34 tokens to every session and 1,822 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
