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 | $0.00047 | $0.00187 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00019 | $0.00075 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00037 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00019 |
Grade A, and why
tool-usage 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.
What it actually says
Tool Usage
Edit Tool
- Edit retry limit. If Edit fails twice on the same target, re-read the file for actual content. If it still fails, use Write to replace the full file.
- Read before Edit, always. Hooks may modify file contents after Write — the file on disk may differ from what you expect.
Search Tools
- WebSearch/WebFetch budget: 3 searches + 2 fetches per question. If you haven't found the answer, summarise what you learned and ask the user.
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.

tool-usage is a skill published in the GitHub repository stuartshields/claude-setup (2 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 47 tokens to every session and 187 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
Other skills, from other repositories
debug
Instrument web/web-app code with structured debug logging via a global variable (window.debuglogs). Produces a clean JSON timeline for reproducing and diagnosing bugs. Use when user wants to debug a feature or track down a bug.
anomaly-alert
Identify anomalous sessions using Agent Monitor data — cost outliers from the pricing engine, token anomalies (cache miss spikes, compaction baseline surges), unusual event type ratios (PreToolUse/PostToolUse gaps, APIError clusters), behavioral deviations from workflow intelligence (complexity score outliers, error…
transcript-grep
Search a Claude Code session transcript for a string or regex pattern and show every matching message with surrounding context. Reads /api/sessions/:id/transcript and resolves sessions via /api/sessions?limit= from the Agent Monitor dashboard. Use when hunting for a specific message, prompt, tool call, or error inside…
regression-watch
Detect quality and efficiency regressions over time using Agent Monitor data — rising error rate (APIError events), falling cache hit rate, growing compaction frequency, and climbing cost-per-session. Splits history into an earlier baseline window and a recent window and reports which metrics are getting worse, by how…
hook-inventory
Inventory hooks across the user, project, and project-local settings plus the /.claude/hooks scripts directory — read through the Agent Monitor Config Explorer API — and flag hooks that POST to the network or run arbitrary commands. Reads /api/cc-config/hooks and /api/cc-config/hook-scripts. Use when auditing hook…
event-trace
Trace the full event chain for one Claude Code session into an ordered timeline of every event type with toolname and summary, highlighting gaps, out-of-order events, and failures. Reads /api/events?sessionid= and /api/sessions/:id from the Agent Monitor dashboard. Use when debugging what a session actually did, step…
