AAS Core is a local control plane for coding agents that lets them search a large catalogue of skills, choose a stack, validate it, and create a reproducible plan. It is used to assemble and review agent workflows through its CLI, local MCP server, catalogue, plugins, and Workbench. The catalogue add-ons provide the skills, plugins, bundles, and workflows that AAS Core helps agents select and validate.
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.

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 | $0.00033 | $0.02377 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00016 | $0.01189 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00007 | $0.00475 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00238 |
Grade A, and why
alternatives-pages 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.
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.

Alternatives Pages
When to Use
Use this skill when you need create "[Competitor] alternative" and comparison pages for developer tools. Build honest, high-converting comparison content that ranks for competitive search terms. Trigger phrases: "alternatives page", "comparison page", "vs page", "[competitor] alternative", "competitor comparison",...
Create effective "[Competitor] alternative" and comparison pages that rank for competitive keywords, convert developers honestly, and support your competitive positioning.
Overview
Alternatives pages and comparison content are high-intent SEO plays. Developers searching for "[competitor] alternative" or "[your product] vs [competitor]" are actively evaluating solutions. Done well, this content captures demand, educates prospects, and positions your product effectively. Done poorly, it damages trust and brand perception.
The key principles:
- Be honest - developers will fact-check you
- Be helpful - even if they don't choose you
- Be specific - vague comparisons waste everyone's time
- Be current - outdated comparisons are worse than none
SEO Research for Competitive Keywords
Keyword Categories
Alternative keywords:
- "[Competitor] alternative"
- "[Competitor] alternatives"
- "Alternative to [competitor]"
- "Best [competitor] alternatives"
- "[Competitor] replacement"
Comparison keywords:
- "[Competitor] vs [your product]"
- "[Your product] vs [competitor]"
- "[Competitor] vs [other competitor]" (consider if you should play here)
- "[Competitor] comparison"
- "Compare [category] tools"
Migration keywords:
- "Migrate from [competitor]"
- "Switch from [competitor]"
- "[Competitor] to [your product]"
- "Moving away from [competitor]"
Problem-aware keywords:
- "[Competitor] pricing too expensive"
- "[Competitor] limitations"
- "[Competitor] [specific problem]"
- "Frustrated with [competitor]"
Research Developer Conversations
Use social listening tools to identify which competitive keywords have real search intent based on developer conversations. Search for:
What ships with it

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.
