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.

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 | $0.00055 | $0.00422 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00028 | $0.00211 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00011 | $0.00084 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00042 |
Grade A, and why
iceage-batch 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 8d 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.
What it actually says
Compress all compressible files in a directory. Uses Claude API per file.
Usage
go run ./iceage-batch/go <directory> [flags]
Flags:
--dry-run— list files that would be compressed, no API calls--no-backup— skip creating.original.mdbackups (good for version-controlled dirs)--workers N— parallel compression (default 1, increase carefully — API rate limits apply)--recursive=false— top-level only, no subdirectories
Examples
go run ./iceage-batch/go docs/
go run ./iceage-batch/go docs/ --dry-run
go run ./iceage-batch/go docs/ --no-backup
go run ./iceage-batch/go docs/ --workers 3
go run ./iceage-batch/go . --recursive=false
Requirements
ANTHROPIC_API_KEY in environment or .env.local. Falls back to claude CLI if no key.
Output
Found 8 compressible file(s) in docs/
[1/8] docs/guide.md ... OK (1.2s)
[2/8] docs/api.md ... OK (0.9s)
[3/8] docs/old.md ... Skipped (backup exists)
[4/8] docs/broken.md ... FAILED (validation failed after retries)
Done
Compressed: 6
Skipped: 1
Failed: 1
Exit codes: 0 = all OK, 1 = fatal error, 2 = one or more files failed.
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.

iceage-batch is a skill published in the GitHub repository pomagrenate/ice_age (2 stars, last pushed 19d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 55 tokens to every session and 422 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.
