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.

SkillSpector: 11 findings, 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 | $0.00050 | $0.01198 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00025 | $0.00599 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00010 | $0.00240 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00120 |
Grade B, and why
vnc-setup scanned grade B with 1 finding 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 4d 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.

A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.
sudo apt update How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 155 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
VNC Remote Desktop Setup on reComputer Jetson
Set up VNC remote desktop access on any Seeed Nvidia Jetson device using the Vino VNC server, enabling headless graphical control from Windows, macOS, or Linux clients.
Execution model
Run one phase at a time. After each phase:
- Relay all output to the user.
- If output contains
[STOP]→ stop immediately, consult the failure decision tree. - If output ends with
[OK]→ tell the user "Phase N complete" and proceed to the next phase.
Prerequisites
| Requirement | Detail |
|---|---|
| Jetson device | Any Seeed Studio Nvidia Jetson (reComputer series) |
| JetPack | With GNOME desktop environment |
| HDMI dummy plug | Required for headless operation (no monitor) |
| Network | Jetson and client PC on the same network |
Phase 1 — Install and configure VNC server (~5 min)
Install Vino:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install vino
Enable VNC server to start with graphical session:
cd /usr/lib/systemd/user/graphical-session.target.wants
sudo ln -s ../vino-server.service ./.
Configure VNC settings:
gsettings set org.gnome.Vino prompt-enabled false
gsettings set org.gnome.Vino require-encryption false
Set VNC password (replace thepassword with your desired password):
gsettings set org.gnome.Vino authentication-methods "['vnc']"
gsettings set org.gnome.Vino vnc-password $(echo -n 'thepassword'|base64)
[OK] when all gsettings commands complete without error. [STOP] if vino package fails to install.
Phase 2 — Edit Vino schema and compile (~3 min)
Back up and edit the Vino schema to add the enabled key:
cd /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas
sudo cp org.gnome.Vino.gschema.xml org.gnome.Vino.gschema.xml.old
Add the following XML block inside the <schema> element of org.gnome.Vino.gschema.xml, before the closing </schema> tag:
<key name='enabled' type='b'>
<summary>Enable remote access to the desktop</summary>
<description>
If true, allows remote access to the desktop via the RFB
protocol. Users on remote machines may then connect to the
desktop using a VNC viewer.
</description>
<default>false</default>
</key>
What ships with it
2 files 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.
- 4d ago First seen · 155 lines · 50 tokens per session scan B 2cca479170bb
vnc-setup is a skill published in the GitHub repository Seeed-Projects/Seeed-Jetson-DevelopTool (54 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 50 tokens to every session and 1,198 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it B with 1 finding (asks for root). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.

intent-recognition
Classifies automation requests using two decisions: anchor (which primitive owns the top-level control flow — workflow-anchored, agent-anchored, needs-clarification, or out-of-scope) and embedsother (whether the other primitive appears embedded inside — an agent step inside a workflow, or a workflow invoked as an…
workflow
A workflow skill for embedded-device projects that plans and runs building, flashing, debugging, observing, and diagnosis tasks.
todoocard
A skill family for sending content to TodooCard, a six-colour electronic-paper display. It includes shared device setup and Bluetooth transfer, plus a route for the included nearby-food suggestion feature.
Workday 8AM Smart Speaker Wakeup
A recurring automated skill that triggers a wake-up alarm via connected smart speaker at 8 AM local time on workdays and skips alarms on holidays.
bee-actions
Act back on the owner's Bee wearable — the TOOL half of the Bee integration (channels-vs-tools split). The Bee CHANNEL (ag2-sparrow's sources/bee.py watcher) pushes captured events AT the agent as ambient tasks; this skill is what the agent CALLS to read Bee's data surfaces and mutate them.
