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 | $0.00056 | $0.00606 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00022 | $0.00242 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00011 | $0.00121 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00061 |
Grade A, and why
catalog-authoring 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 2mo 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.

OSCAL Agile Authoring
Purpose
Support custom catalog operations using NIST OSCAL catalogs and profiles, from parameter editing to Markdown deployment using trestle MCP tools.
Default Workspace
- Auto-initialized: trestle workspace is automatically set up in current directory
- No user input required: Users do not need to specify workspace directory
Main Tasks
- Research and import OSCAL assets (catalogs, profiles)
- Parameter editing and CSV template generation
- Markdown deployment and assembly
- Organizational distribution and data preparation
Key Principles
- Must reference actual files (no guessing)
- Do not read catalog.json directly → operate after splitting into md
- Must use trestle MCP (do not use trestle CLI)
- Do NOT use
trestle_rootparameter - omit it from all MCP calls - Use profile-based control selection - edit profile's
include-controlsto specify desired controls, not custom markdown files - Output in English (other languages allowed when specified by user)
- When completing CSV, always confirm with user before proceeding to next step
- Git operations are NOT performed by default → Only use git-workflow skill when user explicitly requests it
Default Workflow
Phase 1: Setup
Asset acquisition and structure organization. See setup.md for detailed instructions.
Phase 2: Editing & Embedding
Parameter editing to profile/catalog deployment. See editing.md for detailed instructions.
Rules
- Always use trestle MCP tools, never CLI commands
- Never use
trestle_rootparameter - omit it from all MCP tool calls - Use profile-based control selection - edit profile's
include-controlsto specify desired controls instead of creating custom markdown files - Confirm CSV content with user before parameter reflection
- Maintain escape characters in markdown files
- Use minimal, natural phrases for parameter values
- Complete both profile and catalog regeneration steps
- Reference actual files only, no assumptions
- After md conversion, never read catalog.json directly
What ships with it
7 files 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.

catalog-authoring is a skill published in the GitHub repository oscal-compass/agentic-agile-authoring (5 stars, last pushed 6d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 56 tokens to every session and 606 once invoked, about $0.0002 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 2026-08-31.

fto-triage
Freedom-to-operate triage — a structured first look at potentially blocking patents, not an FTO opinion. Use when a product, process, or feature is being evaluated for blocking patents, when asked whether anything stops a launch, or to build a claim-chart first pass against the most plausible patents before patent…
legal-hold
Issue, refresh, release, or report on legal holds — drafts the hold notice as .docx, updates legalhold fields in log.yaml, and calendars the next refresh. Use when the user says "issue a hold", "refresh hold", "release hold", or asks for a portfolio-wide hold status report.
specification-writing
A workflow for writing complete patent specifications from patent claims and an invention disclosure. It adapts the document to a chosen jurisdiction, such as the US, Europe, or China.

Draft terms of service and a companion privacy notice matched to the product's form and feature modules, not legal advice, delivered as a Word document.
