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 | $0.00074 | $0.04167 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00037 | $0.02083 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00015 | $0.00833 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00007 | $0.00417 |
Grade A, and why
ase-code-dissect 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.
How it starts

Procedure
-
-
Determine the dissection hint: set , with any leading and trailing whitespace stripped. Additionally, inherit the always existing from the current context, as it names the worktrees and branches of all derived parts.
-
Determine the repository root by running the corresponding command (taken exactly as given) and capturing its output into :
git rev-parse --show-toplevel -
Determine the diff details and the diff statistics by running the corresponding commands (taken exactly as given) and capturing their full outputs into and :
git diff --cached --numstat HEADgit diffgit diff --numstat -
git -C "<repo-root/>" -c core.quotepath=off ls-files --others --exclude-standardSkip every listed entry below the
.ase/directory -- it carries ASE's own state and the worktrees created by this very skill, and hence is never part of the user's change set.Then, for every remaining listed file, capture its creation diff by running the corresponding command (taken exactly as given) and append its output to :
git -C "<repo-root/>" diff --no-index --binary /dev/null "<file/>"This command intentionally exits with a non-zero status, because the two compared paths differ; treat this exit status as success, not as an error. Judge the outcome by the output instead: a run which emits no diff on standard output but an
error:orfatal:message (e.g. the entry is a nested Git repository, whichgit ls-filesreports as a directory) is a real failure -- append nothing for that entry and only output the following , then continue with the next file:

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.

ase-code-dissect is a skill published in the GitHub repository rse/ase (47 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 74 tokens to every session and 4,167 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 2026-08-30.
