Token cost

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

ha-skill-installer 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 4d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/install_skill.py, scripts/test_install_skill.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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 — 78 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Skill Installer

Install one selected skill with the bundled scripts/install_skill.py. Resolve the script from this activation's <package_directory>; do not guess a repository-relative or cached bundle path. It needs Python 3.9+. For GitHub acquisition the helper calls the owning Hope binary, whose path normal exec supplies in HOPE_AGENT_EXECUTABLE (or hope-agent on PATH outside the app). Check prerequisites and explain a missing runtime without silently installing software.

Select the source and scope

  • An exact GitHub repository/subdirectory or local skill directory goes directly to this installer. Use ha-find-skills only if the user still needs a candidate. Do not replace the user's chosen source with a registry recommendation.
  • Default to the managed directory: $HA_DATA_DIR/skills/ when set, otherwise ~/.hope-agent/skills/. When the user requests project-only installation, pass --project with the current session's resolved project/workspace directory. Do not infer it from the desktop process's working directory.
  • Check the visible catalog for an existing name, including shared, extra, and project sources. The helper rejects target-directory collisions and bundled names; it cannot see every configured source. Do not shadow an existing skill as an installation workaround. Use ha-skill-creator for intentional edits.
  • Public GitHub sources use bounded, unauthenticated metadata and file requests through Hope's native reader. The complete selected file tree is checked for count, size, and unsafe entries before downloading any package files. Requests use the shared SSRF checks, reject redirects, and pin file URLs to the resolved commit; no repository code or credential helpers run. Other Git hosts and private repositories use an already-authorized local checkout with --local; never put tokens in URLs or script arguments. On an API rate limit or an unavailable reader, report the failure and use an authorized local source if available; do not fall back to an unbounded clone/download.

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.

Changes

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.
