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 | $0.00097 | $0.05960 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00048 | $0.02980 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00019 | $0.01192 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00010 | $0.00596 |
Grade D, and why
ansible-interactive scanned grade D with 3 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 11d 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.
Asks for rootmediumPrivilege escalation
A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.
ssh user@target-host "sudo -n true && echo 'Passwordless sudo configured'" Reaches for credential fileshighPrivilege escalation
SSH keys, cloud credentials, git-credentials, .npmrc, /etc/shadow: reading these is how a config file becomes a credential leak.
ssh -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa user@target-host Makes network callslowCapability
Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

Ansible Interactive Development Skill
Provide step-by-step guided Ansible development workflow, from initial environment setup through playbook deployment. This skill offers interactive assistance at every stage with validation and troubleshooting.
What is Interactive Ansible Development?
Interactive development breaks complex Ansible projects into manageable steps with immediate feedback and validation at each stage.
Key Benefits:
- Guided workflow - Step-by-step progression with clear objectives
- Immediate validation - Test each step before moving forward
- Error prevention - Catch issues early in the development process
- Learning-focused - Understand concepts while building
- Production-ready - Follow Red Hat CoP standards throughout
Who is this for?
- Ansible beginners starting their first project
- Teams transitioning to Ansible from shell scripts
- Developers wanting guided best practices
- Anyone preferring incremental, validated development
Interactive Development Workflow
Phase 1: Environment Analysis
Objective: Understand current environment and requirements
Steps:
-
Assess Current State
# Check Ansible installation ansible --version # Check Python version python3 --version # Check SSH availability ssh -V -
Define Requirements
- What systems will you manage? (servers, network devices, cloud)
- What tasks need automation? (deployment, configuration, patching)
- What's the target environment? (development, staging, production)
- How many hosts? (affects inventory structure)
- What credentials are needed? (SSH keys, passwords, API tokens)
-
Validate Prerequisites
# Verify connectivity to target hosts ping -c 3 target-host # Test SSH access (without Ansible) ssh user@target-host "echo 'Connection successful'" # Check sudo/privilege escalation ssh user@target-host "sudo -n true && echo 'Passwordless sudo configured'"
What ships with it
4 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.

ansible-interactive is a skill published in the GitHub repository stoleas/ansible-skills (5 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 97 tokens to every session and 5,960 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it D with 3 findings (asks for root, reaches for credential files, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
