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.

A badge with what this costs and how it scanned, read live from this page, so it follows the numbers instead of freezing them. Markdown for a README, HTML for a documentation site or a project page.

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 | $0.00076 | $0.01598 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00038 | $0.00799 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00015 | $0.00320 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00008 | $0.00160 |
Grade A, and why
orcanote-markdown 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 — 315 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Orca Note Flavored Markdown Skill
This skill enables skills-compatible agents to create and edit valid Orca Note Flavored Markdown, including all Orca Note-specific syntax extensions.
Overview
Orca Note uses a combination of Markdown flavors:
- CommonMark
- GitHub Flavored Markdown
- LaTeX for math
- Orca Note-specific extensions (auto headings, highlights, callouts, etc.)
Basic Formatting
Paragraphs and Line Breaks
This is a paragraph.
This is another paragraph (blank line between creates separate paragraphs).
Headings
# Heading 1
## Heading 2
### Heading 3
#### Heading 4
Maximum heading level is 4 (####).
Text Formatting
| Style | Syntax | Example | Output |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bold | **text** or __text__ |
**Bold** |
Bold |
| Italic | *text* or _text_ |
*Italic* |
Italic |
| Bold + Italic | ***text*** |
***Both*** |
Both |
| Strikethrough | ~~text~~ |
~~Striked~~ |
|
| Highlight | ==text== |
==Highlighted== |
==Highlighted== |
| Inline code | `code` |
`code` |
code |
Escaping Formatting
Use backslash to escape special characters:
\*This won't be italic\*
\#This won't be a heading
1\. This won't be a list item
Common characters to escape: \*, \_, \#, \`, \|, \~
Link to Blocks
[[BlockID]]
[[Block Alias]]
Block ID is a number.
Markdown-Style Links
[Display Text](https://example.com)
[Link used outside of Orca Note](orca-note://[repo]/block?blockId=[blockId])
Note: Spaces must be URL-encoded as %20 in Markdown links.

Video/Audio Timestamps

Callouts
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.

orcanote-markdown is a skill published in the GitHub repository sethyuan/orcanote-agent-skills (5 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 76 tokens to every session and 1,598 once invoked, about $0.0004 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.
