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 | $0.00009 | $0.00971 |
| Sonnet 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 5d 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.
