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 | $0.00067 | $0.01584 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00027 | $0.00634 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00013 | $0.00317 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00007 | $0.00158 |
Grade A, and why
qemu-build 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 18d 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 140 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
QEMU Build
Audit workflow
For a non-trivial task that writes to the workspace, use only the needed entries under
.oh-my-qemu/<task-slug>/: audit.md (baseline, plan, decisions, evidence, verification, and
gaps), commands.md (redacted commands, working directories, and results), logs/ (decisive
build, test, and runtime output), scripts/ (probes, parsers, and harnesses), and output/
(generated deliverables, third-party dependencies, and non-QEMU binaries). Keep QEMU's own build
tree at source-root builds/build-<target>/, never an unqualified build/. In a Git worktree,
add .agents/, .oh-my-qemu/, and builds/ to the file from
git rev-parse --git-path info/exclude before writing artifacts or configuring QEMU; preserve
existing entries and avoid duplicates. Never stage or commit these paths; stage source only when
the user explicitly requests that separate action. At handoff, reconcile git status --short
with the baseline and report the task directory, build directory, source changes, pre-existing
changes, and unresolved gaps.
QEMU upstream boundary
QEMU's official GitLab and mailing lists are upstream channels. A patch becomes an upstream
contribution when it is sent to the maintainers selected through MAINTAINERS. Do not prepare or
send agent-generated code, documentation, commit messages, or patches for upstream submission; see
the checked-out tree's docs/devel/code-provenance.rst. Research, debugging, analysis, local
experiments, verification, and workflow guidance remain allowed. Local branches, commits, patch
files, pushes, and pull requests are not by themselves upstream contributions; perform those Git
actions only when requested.
Scope boundary
This skill configures and builds the QEMU source tree only. Use qemu-kernel-build for Linux
kernel artifacts and qemu-uboot-build for U-Boot and firmware-stage artifacts. One named build
directory per component; one skill per build class.
Build directory rule
Use a descriptive directory under source-root builds/ for every configuration, such as
builds/build-aarch64/ or builds/build-riscv64-debug/. Never configure QEMU in build/, the
source root, or the task output/ directory. Reuse a directory only when its recorded
configuration matches the task.
What ships with it
4 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.

qemu-build is a skill published in the GitHub repository processmission/oh-my-qemu (61 stars, last pushed 17d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 67 tokens to every session and 1,584 once invoked, about $0.0003 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 2026-08-30.
