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 | $0.00059 | $0.01749 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00030 | $0.00874 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00012 | $0.00350 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00175 |
Grade A, and why
create-skill 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 today.
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 — 171 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
create-skill: Skill Scaffolding Executor
Scaffolds a complete, standards-compliant agent skill directory. Handles filesystem operations, template rendering, name validation, and discovery — then hands off to the TDD quality gate.
Scope: This skill owns structure. It does not own content quality or routing accuracy.
Those are governed by os-improvement-loop (see cross-plugin handoff below).
Inputs
$ARGUMENTS— optional skill name or brief use-case description passed as initial context to the discovery phase. Omit to start with open discovery.
Phase 1: Discovery Interview
Before writing any files, capture all required inputs:
- Skill name — lowercase-hyphen slug (e.g.
link-validator). Validate: no spaces, no special characters, no shell injection sequences (reject names containing;,&,|,$,`). - Purpose — one sentence: what does this skill do and when does it fire?
- Target plugin — which plugin directory will own this skill?
- Trigger phrases — 3-5 specific phrases a user would say to invoke it.
- Tools needed — which
allowed-toolsdoes it require?
If $ARGUMENTS is provided, treat it as a starting point and confirm rather than re-ask.
Phase 2: Plan and Confirm
Present the proposed directory layout before writing anything:
plugins/<plugin>/skills/<skill-name>/
SKILL.md
evals/
evals.json
references/
acceptance-criteria.md
./scripts/ (if the skill needs Python helpers)
./assets/ (if the skill needs static resources)
What ships with it
60 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.

create-skill is a skill published in the GitHub repository richfrem/agent-plugins-skills (6 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 59 tokens to every session and 1,749 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 2026-09-03.
