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.

Security

Grade C, and why

devops-tooling scanned grade C with 2 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 3d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/setup-git-hooks.ps1), 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.

Recursive force deletehighDestructive command

rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 1,078 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Devops Tooling

Comprehensive toolkit for Git workflows, shell scripting, and development automation.

  • Leverage native parallel subagent dispatch and 200k+ context windows where available.

When to Use This Skill

Use symptom -> action triggers: when one matches, apply this skill and verify with the protocol below.

  • Creating conventional commits and managing Git workflows
  • Writing Bash, Zsh, or PowerShell automation scripts
  • Configuring CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps)
  • Automating development, testing, or deployment tasks
  • Troubleshooting Git conflicts and repository hygiene issues

Part 1: Git Workflows

Conventional Commits

The conventional commit specification provides an easy-to-extend set of rules for creating an explicit commit history.

Commit Format
<type>[optional scope]: <description>

[optional body]

[optional footer(s)]
Types
Type Purpose Example
feat New feature feat(auth): add OAuth2 support
fix Bug fix fix(api): resolve null reference
docs Documentation only docs(readme): update setup guide
style Formatting/style (no logic) style(ui): fix indentation
refactor Refactor production code refactor(svc): extract helpers
perf Performance improvement perf(db): add index on email
test Adding tests test(auth): add unit tests
build Build system or deps build(ci): upgrade Node to v20
ci CI configuration changes ci(github): add workflow for PRs
chore Maintenance tasks chore(deps): update packages
revert Revert previous commit revert: feat(login)
Breaking Changes

Breaking changes must be indicated by ! after the type/scope, or via BREAKING CHANGE in footer:



feat(api)!: remove deprecated v1 endpoint


feat(api): remove deprecated v1 endpoint

BREAKING CHANGE: v1 endpoints are no longer supported. Use v2.

Files

What ships with it

6 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.

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.

devops-tooling is a skill published in the GitHub repository PracticalSwan/agent-skills (11 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 42 tokens to every session and 5,384 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it C with 2 findings (recursive force delete, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
