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 | $0.00017 | $0.01943 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00007 | $0.00777 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00389 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00194 |
Grade A, and why
shipkit-get-skills 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 1mo 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 — 338 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
shipkit-get-skills - Skill & Plugin Discovery
Purpose: Discover and install skills and plugins via conversational interface.
Core value: Discovery through conversation, not CLI memorization.
Two Distribution Channels
| Source | Best For | Install Command |
|---|---|---|
| Official Plugins | Git workflow, PR review, security, UI design | /plugin install X@claude-code-plugins |
| skills.sh | Domain-specific skills (testing, docs, APIs) | npx skills add owner/repo |
When user asks "what's available":
- For plugins → Read
references/official-plugins.md - For skills → Read
references/community-skills.md
Why This Skill Exists
You don't naturally know what skills exist in the ecosystem.
| Without Skill | With Skill |
|---|---|
| User must know about skills.sh | User says "I need help with X" |
| User runs CLI commands manually | Claude searches and offers to install |
| User parses terminal output | Results presented conversationally |
When to Invoke
User says:
- "Find skills for X"
- "Is there a skill for testing?"
- "I need help with commit messages"
- "Get skills", "Search skills"
- "Install a skill for API docs"
- "What plugins are available?"
- "Show me official plugins"
- "Install the frontend-design plugin"
Auto-suggest when:
- User struggles with a task that likely has a community skill
- User asks "is there a better way to do X?"
For catalog questions:
- Plugins → Load
references/official-plugins.md - Community skills → Load
references/community-skills.md
Prerequisites
Required:
- Node.js installed (for
npx skillsCLI) - Internet connection
If npx not available:
- Offer manual install instructions
- Guide user to clone and copy skill folder
Process
Step 1: Understand Intent & Choose Source
When user mentions a need, determine if it's a plugin or skill need:
| Need | Source |
|---|---|
| Git commits, PRs, code review | Official plugins |
| Frontend/UI work | Official plugins (frontend-design) |
| Security concerns | Official plugins (security-guidance) |
| Custom hooks | Official plugins (hookify) |
| Domain-specific (testing, docs, APIs) | skills.sh |
What ships with it
3 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.
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.

anti-deception
Use before responding to pressure for agreement, manufactured urgency, authority appeals, or requests to certify unsupported claims; separate evidence from persuasion and state uncertainty.
stuck
Diagnoses a broken course setup by reading the folder, so the student never has to describe the problem in English. Takes no argument. Reports which class they are on and which files are filled, then names one blocker and one fix: Claude Code opened at the wrong level, .claude/skills/ missing, skills not loading…
wrap-up
Saves today's work session as a four-line entry (did, decided, open, next) at the top of the project's log.md, after the student confirms it, so a fresh chat can continue tomorrow with /pick-up. Writes to projects/ /log.md or career-vault/log.md, one entry per project touched, never to new-client. Use when the student…
pick-up
Reads the newest entry of a project's log.md and tells the student where they left off: what they did and decided, what is open, and the next step. Takes an optional project name. With several projects and no name, shows a menu of each project's last entry. Read only. Use when the student says pick up, where did I…
grill-me
One move you can run on anything: point grill-me at a target and it makes you defend your thinking from first principles until the true matter is clear. Point it at your working contract and it rewrites the weak lines in place. Point it at a brief and it produces a Requirements Handshake. Point it at research, an…
information-architecture
Map the user journey first, then derive the screen inventory, navigation and hierarchy from it, flagging any screen that serves no journey step. Writes the four-part markdown plus an HTML diagram of the step-to-screen mapping. Use after the brief is settled and before tokens or UI.
