Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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 | $0.00121 | $0.01434 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00060 | $0.00717 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00024 | $0.00287 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00012 | $0.00143 |
Grade A, and why
render-static-sites 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 2d 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.
This is a copy
94% identical to render-static-sites — 4 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 158 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Render Static Sites
Deploys static frontends (React, Vue, Hugo, Gatsby, Docusaurus, Jekyll, etc.) to Render's global CDN with automatic TLS, Brotli compression, HTTP/2, and DDoS protection. Free tier available.
When to Use
- Deploying a static site or SPA (no server-side rendering)
- Choosing between a Static Site and a Web Service for a frontend
- Configuring SPA fallback routing, redirects/rewrites, or custom headers
- Setting up PR preview environments for a static site
- Troubleshooting build failures or stale content on a CDN-hosted site
For SSR frameworks (Next.js, Nuxt, SvelteKit) that need a running server, use render-web-services instead. For Blueprint authoring, see render-blueprints.
Static Site vs Web Service
| Need | Use | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Pure HTML/CSS/JS, SPA, docs, blog | Static Site | Free, global CDN, instant cache invalidation |
SSR (Next.js next start, Nuxt server) |
Web Service | Needs a running Node/Python/etc. process |
| Static export from SSR framework | Static Site | If the framework supports full static export (next export, nuxt generate) |
| API backend | Web Service | Static sites cannot run server code |
Key constraint: Static sites are not on the private network. They cannot communicate with other Render services over internal hostnames.
Build and Publish
| Setting | Purpose |
|---|---|
buildCommand |
Installs dependencies and builds assets (e.g. npm ci && npm run build) |
staticPublishPath |
Directory of built output to serve (e.g. build, dist, public) |
Render auto-detects and installs dependencies. Set SKIP_INSTALL_DEPS=true to handle installation yourself in the build command.
Common frameworks
| Framework | Build command | Publish path |
|---|---|---|
| Create React App | npm ci && npm run build |
build |
| Vite (React/Vue/Svelte) | npm ci && npm run build |
dist |
| Next.js (static export) | npm ci && next build |
out |
| Nuxt (static) | npm ci && nuxt generate |
.output/public |
| Hugo | hugo --minify |
public |
| Gatsby | npm ci && gatsby build |
public |
| Docusaurus | npm ci && npm run build |
build |
| Jekyll | bundle exec jekyll build |
_site |
| Astro | npm ci && astro build |
dist |
What ships with it
2 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.

render-static-sites is a skill published in the GitHub repository render-oss/render-plugin-claude-code (0 stars, last pushed 14d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 121 tokens to every session and 1,434 once invoked, about $0.0006 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 94% identical to render-static-sites, differing in 4 lines, and is treated as a copy.
