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 | $0.00045 | $0.00622 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00018 | $0.00249 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00124 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00062 |
Grade A, and why
backtesting-frameworks 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 1mo 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.

Backtesting Frameworks
Build robust, production-grade backtesting systems that avoid common pitfalls and produce reliable strategy performance estimates.
When to Use This Skill
- Developing trading strategy backtests
- Building backtesting infrastructure
- Validating strategy performance
- Avoiding common backtesting biases
- Implementing walk-forward analysis
- Comparing strategy alternatives
Core Concepts
1. Backtesting Biases
| Bias | Description | Mitigation |
|---|---|---|
| Look-ahead | Using future information | Point-in-time data |
| Survivorship | Only testing on survivors | Use delisted securities |
| Overfitting | Curve-fitting to history | Out-of-sample testing |
| Selection | Cherry-picking strategies | Pre-registration |
| Transaction | Ignoring trading costs | Realistic cost models |
2. Proper Backtest Structure

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.

backtesting-frameworks is a skill published in the GitHub repository RudyCity/superagent (51 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 45 tokens to every session and 622 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. 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.
