Getting it into your agent
It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

What it costs to keep this loaded
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 | $0.00080 | $0.01151 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00032 | $0.00460 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00016 | $0.00230 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00008 | $0.00115 |
Grade A, and why
write-guide 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 yesterday.
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 — 93 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Write a guide against the concept graph
This repo has two kinds of content that must agree:
- Concepts (
plugins/runpod/skills/runpod-usage/concepts/*.yaml) hold exact facts as rules, each citing a public source. They are the source of truth for what is true. - Guides (every
SKILL.md,reference/*.mdand golden path) explain, teach and demonstrate. They are the source of truth for how to do it.
A guide states facts that the concept rules support, and links to the concepts it covers.
A concept is covered by at least one guide. pnpm check:guides enforces both links.
Writing or changing a guide
-
Find the concepts it touches before writing (run these in
ontology/tools/):pnpm build:sqlite pnpm query tree "<concept>" # the concept, its children and the guides that cover them pnpm query search "<question>" # the rules that answer a question pnpm query concept "<name>" # every rule on one concept, with evidence -
Write from the rules. Every factual claim (a limit, a default, a state, what an action does, what exists) must match a rule. Explain it in your own words and add the how: the commands, order, pitfalls and verification.
- If the guide needs a fact that no rule has, add the rule first with the
add-conceptskill, citing the spec, the public docs or a live probe. Then write the guide. - If a rule is wrong or out of date, fix the rule (and its evidence) in the same change.
- Never let a guide and a rule say different things. If you find a disagreement, the public source decides which one changes.
- If the guide needs a fact that no rule has, add the rule first with the
-
Declare the links.

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.

write-guide is a skill published in the GitHub repository runpod/runpod-plugins-official (46 stars, last pushed today), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 80 tokens to every session and 1,151 once invoked, about $0.0003 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 2026-10-09.
