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 | $0.00062 | $0.00550 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00031 | $0.00275 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00012 | $0.00110 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00055 |
Grade A, and why
hpc-calculix 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 12d 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
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 56 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
HPC CalculiX
Treat CalculiX as an input-deck-driven FEM workflow centered on .inp keywords.
Start
- Read
references/input-deck-manual.mdbefore creating or editing a.inpfile. - Read
references/keyword-and-step-matrix.mdwhen mapping materials, sections, loads, and analysis steps. - Read
references/mesh-boundary-and-output.mdwhen working with nodes, elements, sets, boundary conditions, and result output. - Read
references/cluster-execution-playbook.mdwhen staging a CalculiX deck for scheduler-backed cluster execution. - Read
references/error-recovery.mdwhen parsing, solving, or post-processing fails.
Additional References
Load these on demand:
references/time-control-and-amplitudes.mdfor step time, amplitude logic, and incremental loading behaviorreferences/result-files-and-postprocessing.mdfor.dat,.frd, and eigenmode artifactsreferences/thermal-and-coupled-procedures.mdfor heat transfer and coupled analysis patternsreferences/step-load-output-matrix.mdfor procedure-to-load-to-output compatibility tablesreferences/element-section-material-matrix.mdfor element, section, and material assignment lookup tablesreferences/error-pattern-dictionary.mdfor structured parse, singularity, and procedure-mismatch failure signaturesreferences/cluster-execution-playbook.mdfor launch style, result-artifact planning, and cluster-side deck execution
Reusable Templates
Use assets/templates/ when a concrete .inp scaffold is needed, especially:
static_minimal.inpfrequency_minimal.inpthermal_minimal.inpbeam_static.inpcalculix-ccx-slurm.sh
Guardrails
- Do not invent Abaqus-style keywords that CalculiX does not support.
- Do not mix node or element set names inconsistently across sections and steps.
- Do not define loads and boundary conditions without checking the active step type.
- Do not skip material and section coherence when the deck fails later in the solve.
Outputs

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.
- 12d ago First seen · 56 lines · 62 tokens per session scan A ec11f8491246
hpc-calculix is a skill published in the GitHub repository SciMate-AI/HPC-Skills (86 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 62 tokens to every session and 550 once invoked, about $0.0003 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.
