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 | $0.00068 | $0.00622 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00034 | $0.00311 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00014 | $0.00124 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00007 | $0.00062 |
Grade A, and why
source-command-latch-budget-approve scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.
What it actually says
source-command-latch-budget-approve
Use this skill only when the user explicitly asks to approve the latch LLM budget for the current UTC day.
Command Template
Resolve the active latch checkout, then run the budget approval command:
latch_home="${LATCH_HOME:-}"
if [ -z "$latch_home" ] && [ -n "${CLAUDE_KB_HOME:-}" ]; then
latch_home="$CLAUDE_KB_HOME"
fi
if [ -z "$latch_home" ]; then
search_dir="$PWD"
while [ "$search_dir" != "/" ]; do
if [ -f "$search_dir/AGENTS.md" ]; then
latch_home="$(sed -n 's|.*Follow `\([^`]*\)/README\.md` per-user setup.*|\1|p' "$search_dir/AGENTS.md" | head -n 1)"
[ -n "$latch_home" ] && break
fi
search_dir="$(dirname "$search_dir")"
done
fi
if [ -z "$latch_home" ]; then
candidate="$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null || pwd)"
if { [ -f "$candidate/src/latch/mcp/mcp_server.py" ] || [ -f "$candidate/src/mcp_server.py" ]; } && [ -d "$candidate/commands" ]; then
latch_home="$candidate"
fi
fi
if [ -z "$latch_home" ] || { [ ! -f "$latch_home/src/latch/mcp/mcp_server.py" ] && [ ! -f "$latch_home/src/mcp_server.py" ]; }; then
echo "Could not find latch checkout; set LATCH_HOME to your latch install." >&2
exit 1
fi
budget_script="$latch_home/src/latch/gate/budget.py"
if [ ! -f "$budget_script" ]; then
budget_script="$latch_home/src/budget.py"
fi
python "$budget_script" approve "$(pwd)"
Report the JSON output, especially date, count_nonheal, count_heal, and
approved_dates. Do not run this proactively; the daily caps are a cost-safety
backstop.
For a read-only status check, run:
budget_script="$latch_home/src/latch/gate/budget.py"
if [ ! -f "$budget_script" ]; then
budget_script="$latch_home/src/budget.py"
fi
python "$budget_script" status "$(pwd)"
What ships with it
1 file 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.

source-command-latch-budget-approve is a skill published in the GitHub repository open-latch/latch (9 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 68 tokens to every session and 622 once invoked, about $0.0003 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 2026-08-31.
