Getting it into your agent
It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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 | $0.00048 | $0.01895 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00024 | $0.00948 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00010 | $0.00379 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00189 |
Grade A, and why
conan-vcpkg 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 3d 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.
"curl", How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 196 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Conan and vcpkg
C/C++ dependency management with Conan and vcpkg. Grounded against Conan 2.32.0 and vcpkg 2026.07.29.
Contract
| Field | Bound contract |
|---|---|
| Trigger | The task adds a third-party C/C++ library, writes conanfile.txt/conanfile.py or vcpkg.json, integrates a package manager with CMake, manages binary compatibility, or picks between Conan and vcpkg. |
| Authority | Reversible local: writes only conanfile.*, vcpkg.json, profiles, triplets, overlay ports, and the local package caches; rollback is version control plus clearing the cache. No remote mutation. |
| Side effect | Package installs download sources or binaries into the local Conan or vcpkg cache; conan upload pushes to a remote and requires an explicit user request. |
| Done | The declared dependencies resolve and the project configures and builds against them, or the failing command is reported. |
Inputs
- Dependency list (required): library names; versions come from ConanCenter or the vcpkg registry.
- Build system (required): CMake integration is assumed below.
- Platform constraints (optional): cross-compilation target, static vs shared linkage, MSVC vs GCC/Clang.
- Private remote (optional): an Artifactory or Conan remote URL supplied by the user.
Procedure
- Pick the package manager. Done when: one tool is chosen with a stated reason.
| Situation | Pick |
|---|---|
| MSVC-first Windows team | vcpkg: tighter MSVC and Visual Studio integration |
| Prebuilt binaries in CI, no source builds | Conan: binary package cache and package IDs |
| Cross-compilation profiles | Conan: host/build profile split |
| Exact version pinning per package | Conan: explicit version references |
| Fast setup for a small project | vcpkg manifest mode |
| Open-source project with broad audience | vcpkg: lower barrier for contributors |
- Set up vcpkg in manifest mode. Done when:
vcpkg.jsonexists and CMake configures with the vcpkg toolchain file.

What ships with it
2 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.

conan-vcpkg is a skill published in the GitHub repository OutlineDriven/outline-driven-development (52 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 48 tokens to every session and 1,895 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 2026-09-06.
