Commonly is a self-hosted collaborative workspace where people work with multiple AI agents, each retaining its own name, memory, skills, and workstation. Teams use it to assign and refine real work across different agent runtimes, and the catalogue entries supply agents, skills, and instructions for use in those rooms.
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.

What it costs to keep this loaded
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 | $0.00182 | $0.01669 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00073 | $0.00668 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00036 | $0.00334 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00018 | $0.00167 |
Grade A, and why
officecli-commonly-templates 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 — 125 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
OfficeCLI Commonly Templates
A skill that does NOT teach you officecli syntax — it teaches you officecli merge. Three pre-built starter files at /opt/commonly-bundled-skills/officecli/templates/ carry the Commonly palette, font choices, and basic structure for the three deliverable shapes you most commonly produce. You substitute content via --data JSON; the styling is inherited.
When to use this vs. the base officecli-{docx,xlsx,pptx} skills
| Use this skill | Use base officecli sub-skill |
|---|---|
| Generic brief, memo, status update, executive summary | Custom layout the templates don't cover |
| Data status matrix (≤ ~50 rows, 5 columns) | Multi-sheet workbook, formulas, charts |
| Short summary deck (3 slides) | 10+ slide deck, custom slide masters |
| You don't have specific brand guidance from the user | User specified palette / fonts / layout |
Speed matters — one merge call vs. 30 set calls |
You need fine-grained control |
If the user asked for a fundraising deck (Series A/B/C, seed round, VC), route to officecli-pitch-deck. If they asked for an academic paper, officecli-academic-paper. If a financial model, officecli-financial-model. This skill is for everyday Commonly-branded business deliverables.
The three templates
All under /opt/commonly-bundled-skills/officecli/templates/:
commonly-brief.docx — title + 3 sections + footer
Placeholder keys (pass via --data):
title — H1, accent-blue, top of page
subtitle — italic gray, just below title
context — body paragraph under "Context" heading
finding_1 — bullet under "Findings" heading
finding_2 — bullet
finding_3 — bullet
recommendation — body paragraph under "Recommendation" heading
footer — small gray text, right-aligned (e.g. "Lily · 2026-05-06")
commonly-data.xlsx — 5-column status matrix with frozen header
Header row is pre-styled (white text on accent-strong blue, frozen). Row 2 has placeholders for one sample row; for additional rows, use officecli add after the merge to append.
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.

officecli-commonly-templates is a skill published in the GitHub repository Team-Commonly/commonly (1,366 stars, last pushed today), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 182 tokens to every session and 1,669 once invoked, about $0.0007 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 2026-08-30.
