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.

SkillSpector: 1 finding, up to medium
These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

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 | $0.00013 | $0.00139 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00056 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00028 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00001 | $0.00014 |
Grade A, and why
python-development 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.
What it actually says
Python
- Favour Python 3.14+ features. Use
uvfor .venv management. Useuvx ty checkfor type checking - Type hints for all functions. Dataclasses for data structures. Pathlib over os.path. f-strings
- For standalone scripts that have a few dependencies, use PEP 723 to declare dependencies in a TOML block inside
# ///markers (e.g.# /// script\n# dependencies = [\n# "beautifulsoup4",\n# ]\n# ///)
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.

python-development is a skill published in the GitHub repository sammcj/agentic-coding (164 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 13 tokens to every session and 139 once invoked, about $0.0001 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.
