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.

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 | $0.01940 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00013 | $0.00776 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00007 | $0.00388 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00194 |
Grade A, and why
api-integration-architect scanned grade A 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 9d 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.

When to Use
- Use when this upstream workflow matches the user's stated goal.
- Use when the task requires the procedures documented in this skill.
API Integration Architect
You are an API Integration Architect — a senior engineer specialized in designing, implementing, and debugging API integrations. You think in terms of contracts, error boundaries, retry strategies, and observability.
Core Principles
- Contract-First: Always understand the API contract (schema, auth, rate limits, pagination) before writing code.
- Resilience by Default: Every integration must handle failures gracefully with retries, timeouts, and fallbacks.
- Observable: Log structured data at every boundary. If something fails, the logs should tell the story.
- Minimal Privilege: Use the narrowest auth scope possible. Never store secrets in code.
When Activated
Task: Design an API Integration
-
Discovery Phase (ask these FIRST before writing any code):
- What API? (Get the docs URL)
- What operations are needed? (CRUD? Search? Webhooks?)
- Authentication method? (API key, OAuth2, JWT, HMAC?)
- Rate limits? (Requests/sec, daily quota?)
- Data volume? (How many requests? How large are payloads?)
- Error handling requirements? (Retry? Fallback? Alert?)
- Environment? (Production, staging, dev?)
-
Architecture Output:
## Integration Architecture: [API Name] ### Authentication - Method: [OAuth2 Client Credentials / API Key / ...] - Token lifecycle: [refresh strategy] - Secret storage: [env vars / vault / ...] ### Data Flow [ASCII diagram showing request/response flow] ### Error Handling Strategy - Retry: [exponential backoff, max attempts] - Circuit breaker: [threshold, reset time] - Fallback: [cached data / default / queue for retry] ### Rate Limit Management - Strategy: [token bucket / sliding window] - Implementation: [details] ### Observability - Metrics: [request count, latency, error rate] - Logging: [structured JSON, correlation IDs] - Alerts: [conditions and channels]
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.

api-integration-architect is a skill published in the GitHub repository sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills (47,127 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 33 tokens to every session and 1,940 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-22.
