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: 5 findings, up to high
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 →
- high Agent Snooping · line 42 Skill accesses MCP server configuration files (mcp.json). MCP configs contain server URLs, authentication tokens, and tool definitions — reading them allows the skill to discover and potentially abuse other tool integrations.Fix: Remove all code or instructions that read MCP configuration files (mcp.json). MCP server details should be managed by the agent runtime, not read by individual skills.
- high Prompt Injection · line 133 Hidden instructions were detected in comments or invisible text. These could contain malicious directives. Manual review is recommended.Fix: Audit all comments and invisible characters. Remove any instructions that direct the agent to perform unauthorized actions. Use plain, reviewable content.
- medium MCP Rug Pull · line 33 npx commands without a version suffix (e.g. @1.0.0) create a rug-pull risk if the upstream server is compromised and publishes a malicious update.Fix: Pin the version: npx @scope/[email protected]
- medium MCP Rug Pull · line 61 npx commands without a version suffix (e.g. @1.0.0) create a rug-pull risk if the upstream server is compromised and publishes a malicious update.Fix: Pin the version: npx @scope/[email protected]
- medium Data Exfiltration · line 74 Data is being sent to an external URL. This could be legitimate telemetry or data exfiltration. Manual review is recommended.Fix: Verify the destination URL is trusted and necessary. Remove or replace with documented APIs. Ensure no secrets, tokens, or PII are transmitted.
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 | $0.00041 | $0.01503 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00020 | $0.00751 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00008 | $0.00301 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00150 |
Grade A, and why
mcporter 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 9d 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 — 185 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
mcporter
Use mcporter to discover, call, and manage MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers and tools directly from the terminal.
Prerequisites
Requires Node.js:
# No install needed (runs via npx)
npx mcporter list
# Or install globally
npm install -g mcporter
Quick Start
# List MCP servers already configured on this machine
mcporter list
# List tools for a specific server with schema details
mcporter list <server> --schema
# Call a tool
mcporter call <server.tool> key=value
Discovering MCP Servers
mcporter auto-discovers servers configured by other MCP clients (Claude Desktop, Cursor, etc.) on the machine. To find new servers to use, browse registries like mcpfinder.dev or mcp.so, then connect ad-hoc:
# Connect to any MCP server by URL (no config needed)
mcporter list --http-url https://some-mcp-server.com --name my_server
# Or run a stdio server on the fly
mcporter list --stdio "npx -y @modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem" --name fs
Calling Tools
# Key=value syntax
mcporter call linear.list_issues team=ENG limit:5
# Function syntax
mcporter call "linear.create_issue(title: \"Bug fix needed\")"
# Ad-hoc HTTP server (no config needed)
mcporter call https://api.example.com/mcp.fetch url=https://example.com
# Ad-hoc stdio server
mcporter call --stdio "bun run ./server.ts" scrape url=https://example.com
# JSON payload
mcporter call <server.tool> --args '{"limit": 5}'
# Machine-readable output (recommended for Hermes)
mcporter call <server.tool> key=value --output json
Auth and Config
# OAuth login for a server
mcporter auth <server | url> [--reset]
# Manage config
mcporter config list
mcporter config get <key>
mcporter config add <server>
mcporter config remove <server>
mcporter config import <path>
Config file location: ./config/mcporter.json (override with --config).
Daemon
For persistent server connections:
mcporter daemon start
mcporter daemon status
mcporter daemon stop
mcporter daemon restart
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.
- 9d ago First seen · 185 lines · 41 tokens per session scan A e6bc7bb06503
mcporter is a skill published in the GitHub repository seaworld008/Commonly-used-high-value-skills (70 stars, last pushed 5d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 41 tokens to every session and 1,503 once invoked, about $0.0002 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 2026-09-03.
