rai-discovery

rai-discovery is a skill for Claude Code from RelationalAI/rai-agent-skills. It costs 82 tokens per session (6,830 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A discovery and routing layer that examines an ontology, a structured model of concepts and relationships, to find useful questions and match them to reasoning methods.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for suggesting data-driven questions, checking feasibility, choosing rules, graph, prediction, or optimization workflows, and planning chains such as predicting demand before allocating resources.
Why use it?
It helps determine what the available data can answer, whether the data is sufficient, and which type of analysis should handle a question.

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 A, and why

rai-discovery 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 12d 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.

Question Discovery

Summary

What: Multi-reasoner question discovery from ontology models. Acts as the translation, ideation, and routing layer between the ontology and the reasoners — surfaces what the data can answer, classifies by reasoner family, and translates user-facing problem framings into the technical implementation hints the downstream coding skills consume.

When to use:

  • Suggesting questions a given ontology can answer
  • Analyzing a user's question to determine reasoner type and feasibility
  • Classifying whether a question needs prescriptive, graph, predictive, or rules reasoning
  • Identifying multi-reasoner chains (e.g., predict demand then optimize allocation)
  • Assessing data feasibility before committing to a workflow

When NOT to use:

  • Formulating optimization variables, constraints, objectives — see rai-prescriptive-problem
  • PyRel syntax and coding patterns — see rai-pyrel
  • Ontology modeling or enrichment — see rai-ontology
  • Solver execution and diagnostics — see rai-prescriptive-results
  • Post-solve interpretation — see rai-prescriptive-results

Overview:

  1. Ground in the real model via inspect.schema(model) — concepts, properties with real types, relationships, data sources
  2. Analyze the ontology to identify what the data can support
  3. Classify each opportunity by reasoner type (prescriptive, graph, predictive, rules)
  4. Identify multi-reasoner chains where applicable
  5. Assess feasibility (READY / MODEL_GAP / DATA_GAP)
  6. Present ranked suggestions to the user
  7. Route the selected question to the appropriate reasoner workflow

Quick Reference

Signal in Ontology Reasoner Question Pattern
Constrained resources, costs, capacities Prescriptive "What should we do?" — allocate, schedule, route. Within prescriptive, formulation splits along a style axis: MIP-style (Problem(model, Float) + HiGHS/Gurobi — continuous-friendly) vs CSP-style (Problem(model, Integer) + MiniZinc — all-integer with globals, multi-solution enumeration, audit/witness). See prescriptive.md § Formulation Style Detection.
Network topology, graph structure Graph "What patterns exist?" — centrality, clusters, paths
Labels/values per entity, historical pair data, graph topology Predictive "What will happen?" / "Which Y for each X?" — node classification, node regression, link prediction
Threshold/status fields, business rules Rules "Is this valid?" — compliance, classification

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.

rai-discovery is a skill published in the GitHub repository RelationalAI/rai-agent-skills (4 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 82 tokens to every session and 6,830 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.
