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 | $0.00129 | $0.02294 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00064 | $0.01147 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00026 | $0.00459 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00013 | $0.00229 |
Grade B, and why
batocera-ops scanned grade B with 2 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.
Sends data to an external URLmediumData exfiltration
A POST to an outside endpoint may be telemetry or may be exfiltration; either way the mod talks to somewhere, and you should know where.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

Batocera Ops
Foundation for operating a Batocera cabinet with a coding agent over SSH. Read
this first; the sibling skills (batocera-roms, batocera-display,
batocera-tuning, batocera-maintenance) assume the connection pattern, path
model, and safety doctrine defined here.
Overview
Batocera is an immutable-rootfs Linux distro for retro gaming. The system
partition is read-only; everything you can change lives under /userdata.
EmulationStation (ES) is the frontend; RetroArch and standalone emulators do
the playing. Configuration is layered: a single batocera.conf holds most
settings, but launch-time code (configgen) regenerates per-emulator configs on
every launch, so hand-edits to the generated files get stomped. Getting these
two facts right prevents most wasted sessions.
Connecting
Batocera defaults to password SSH (no key from a fresh client). Parameterize the host so nothing is hardcoded:
export BATOCERA_HOST=192.168.1.50 # your cabinet's LAN IP
Batocera's documented default credentials are root / linux. If yours
still uses them, change the password (ES menu → System Settings → Security, or
passwd over SSH) — a machine you SSH into as root should not ship with a
published password. The examples below read the password from an env var so it
never lands in shell history or a committed file:
export BATOCERA_PASS='linux' # replace with your actual password
# convenience wrapper used throughout these skills
SSHB() { sshpass -p "$BATOCERA_PASS" ssh -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no "root@$BATOCERA_HOST" "$@"; }
SCPB() { sshpass -p "$BATOCERA_PASS" scp -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no "$@"; }
Run a command: SSHB 'cat /usr/share/batocera/batocera.version'
Copy down: SCPB "root@$BATOCERA_HOST:/userdata/screenshots/x.png" .
Copy up: SCPB ./file "root@$BATOCERA_HOST:/userdata/system/"
If key auth is set up, drop sshpass. Batocera drops idle SSH connections; for
long-running work use nohup … & or screen/tmux if installed. Rapid
reconnects can trip the SSH daemon's throttle (transient "Permission denied");
wait a few seconds and retry rather than assuming the password is wrong.
What ships with it
2 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.

batocera-ops is a skill published in the GitHub repository t3chnaztea/batocera-skills (4 stars, last pushed 19d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 129 tokens to every session and 2,294 once invoked, about $0.0006 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it B with 2 findings (sends data to an external url, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
