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 5.1 | $0.00133 | $0.06690 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00067 | $0.03345 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00027 | $0.01338 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00013 | $0.00669 |
Grade B, and why
foxglove scanned grade B 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 6d 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.

A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

foxglove
The remote/web visualization path for robium: foxglove_bridge exposes a live
ROS 2 graph over a WebSocket, and either Foxglove or the open-source Lichtblick
client connects to it or opens recorded data. This is the answer
environments and gazebo route to whenever a robot or sim runs
headless/remote and RViz2's local-display requirement doesn't fit.
Two things changed over time and matter for how this skill is used: the
bridge itself (foxglove_bridge, MIT-licensed, open source) moved its
active development from foxglove/ros-foxglove-bridge (now ROS 1-only,
maintenance mode) to the foxglove/foxglove-sdk monorepo, and the app
that used to be free/open-source "Foxglove Studio" was discontinued in
February 2024 (last open-source release v1.87.0, MPL-2.0) in favor of the
current closed-source, commercial Foxglove app, which offers free and paid
managed-platform plans. Lichtblick continues the inspectable, self-hostable
viewer path as an open-core fork; most of its repository is MPL-2.0. The
bridge migration was verified from the two upstream repositories on
2026-07-10. Lichtblick's distribution/license and Foxglove's current pricing
and self-hosting terms were re-verified from their official sources on
2026-08-27 (see References); check them again before making procurement or
deployment commitments because these terms drift.
When to use this skill
- Setting up
foxglove_bridgeon a robot or sim host, choosing Foxglove or Lichtblick as its client, building a layout, recording or replaying an MCAP file, or viewing a robot's data from another machine. - The trigger phrases in the description: 'foxglove', 'lichtblick', 'mcap', 'open-source robotics viewer', visualizing a robot on a remote server, sharing visualization, or recording sessions for later analysis.
- Any time
environmentsorgazebohas already concluded the target is headless/remote and the next question is "how do I actually see it"; this skill is that answer. - Cross-references: go to the sibling skill instead when the question is:
- Whether headless/remote is the deployment target at all, GPU
passthrough, or the general local-vs-remote strategy →
environments(load first if not already decided; this skill assumes that decision is made and just delivers the viz half of it). - Local desktop ROS debugging with a display attached →
rviz2. - ML/data-centric logging outside ROS message types (policy rollouts,
LeRobot episodes) →
rerun, though LeRobot dataset episodes can also be served straight to the Foxglove app vialerobot-dataset-viz --display-mode foxglove(invocation is thelerobotskill's territory; verified 2026-07-12, manip-trial). - Choosing which viz tool fits the situation at all →
visualization(routes here once Foxglove is the right choice).
- Whether headless/remote is the deployment target at all, GPU
passthrough, or the general local-vs-remote strategy →
What ships with it
1 file 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.

foxglove is a skill published in the GitHub repository robium-ai/robium (9 stars, last pushed 9d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 133 tokens to every session and 6,690 once invoked, about $0.0007 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it B with 2 findings (asks for root, makes network calls). It is 84% identical to foxglove, differing in 239 lines, and is treated as a copy.
