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 | $0.00166 | $0.01750 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00083 | $0.00875 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00033 | $0.00350 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00017 | $0.00175 |
Grade A, and why
perplexity-search 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 — 151 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
perplexity-search
A keyless Perplexity research toolkit over SELAT. The default action is a cheap web Search — ranked results with page content and source URLs that you (the agent) synthesize into a cited answer. When a search-and-synthesize pass isn't enough, the skill also documents two escalations — a one-shot Agent answer and an async deep-research report — that you run per the installed skill's own guidance, always confirming the cost first.
It wraps a SELAT skill: a declarative, vetted recipe of paid API calls (no API
keys, no signups) settled in USDC — routed x402 on Base through the SELAT
Router. The selat CLI resolves the vetted endpoints and prints a receipt.
Cost — read this first
- Every call is real USDC from the user's own Circle Agent Wallet (MPC self-custody — SELAT never holds keys or funds).
- Prices and spend limits live in the underlying SELAT skill, not here — the
live 402 quote from
selat skill verify/runis the price source of truth, so this wrapper doesn't restate dollar figures (they'd only drift). - The quote the CLI shows already includes SELAT's ~5% routing markup — it's the final settled charge; nothing is added on top.
- The default Web Search is the wired
selat skill runstep. Agent answer and deep research are separate, agent-run paid calls — each its own spend, so tell the user the cost (from its live quote) and get a yes before every escalation. - Always dry-run first (Step 1 — free, no wallet) for the default step, show the user the real quoted price, and get their OK before any wallet setup or paid run.
- Never ask for, paste, or handle a private key. Wallet auth is the CLI's Circle integration.
Step 0 — get the CLI (free, no account)
selat --version || npm install -g @selat-ai/selat-cli
Installing the CLI creates nothing money-related — no wallet, no account, no keys.
Step 1 — dry run first, before any wallet setup
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.

perplexity-search is a skill published in the GitHub repository SELAT-AI/selat-openclaw-skills (2 stars, last pushed 29d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 166 tokens to every session and 1,750 once invoked, about $0.0008 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 2026-08-31.
