What is publish-public?

A publication-readiness checklist for making a Tessl plugin public. It validates the plugin configuration, required evaluation scenarios, and a quality audit.

Use it to prepare or verify a plugin for the public Tessl registry. It covers quality evaluation, scenario creation, and checking the plugin manifest.

It helps catch missing publication requirements before release. The process requires an A-grade audit, at least five measurable scenarios, and a non-private plugin configuration.

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.

Token cost

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	$0.00087	$0.00991
Opus 5	$0.00044	$0.00495
Sonnet 5	$0.00017	$0.00198
Haiku 4.5	$0.00009	$0.00099

Security

Grade A, and why

publish-public 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 11d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/check-publication-readiness.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Tessl Public Publication Skill

Ensure Tessl plugins meet all requirements for public registry publication, including evaluation scenario coverage, quality thresholds, and proper plugin configuration.

Principles

Public plugins represent a quality commitment to every agent that installs them. Apply this skill when you need to validate, prepare, or execute a public registry publication.

When to use: Publishing a plugin to the public Tessl registry, verifying publication readiness, or enforcing quality gates before release.

When not to: Private workspace publishing, internal-only plugins, or pre-alpha prototypes where A-grade quality is not yet expected.

The three non-negotiable gates are:

Quality audit passes (>=108/120 A-grade via skill-quality-auditor)
Evaluation scenarios exist (minimum 5 scenarios with measurable success criteria)
plugin.json is correctly configured (private: false, valid fields)

Workflow

1. Pre-Publication Quality Audit

sh skills/agentic-harness/skill-quality-auditor/scripts/evaluate.sh <domain>/<skill-name> --json --store
cat .context/audits/<domain>/<skill-name>/latest/analysis.md

If below A-grade, review the remediation plan and re-audit after improvements.

2. Create Evaluation Scenarios

mkdir -p skills/<domain>/<skill-name>/evals/scenario-01

Each scenario needs: task.md, criteria.json (checklist summing to 100), capability.txt. Target 5-8 scenarios covering the full trigger surface.

3. Configure .tessl-plugin/plugin.json

{
  "name": "workspace/skill-name",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "private": false,
  "description": "Descriptive text with use cases. Keywords: term1, term2",
  "skills": ["SKILL.md"]
}

All 5 fields are required. private: false must be boolean, not string. skills is an array of path strings.

See references/plugin-json-schema.md for field validation rules and examples.

4. Run Tessl Review

tessl review run skills/<domain>/<skill-name>
tessl review run skills/<domain>/<skill-name> --optimize

Changes

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.

publish-public is a skill published in the GitHub repository pantheon-org/tekhne (10 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 87 tokens to every session and 991 once invoked, about $0.0004 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.
