Octop is a self-hosted, multi-user AI assistant that runs multiple specialized agents and connects them to chat interfaces, tools, and external services. It is for individuals, families, and teams who want a locally operated assistant with shared experts and persistent capabilities. Catalogue add-ons extend its agent and assistant workflows.
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.

A badge with what this costs and how it scanned, read live from this page, so it follows the numbers instead of freezing them. Markdown for a README, HTML for a documentation site or a project page.

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 | $0.00059 | $0.00334 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00024 | $0.00134 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00012 | $0.00067 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00033 |
Grade A, and why
documentation 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 2d 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.
This is a copy
100% identical to documentation — 0 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

Principles
- Write for the reader — Who is reading this and what do they need?
- Start with the most useful information — Don't bury the lede
- Show, don't tell — Code examples, commands, screenshots
- Keep it current — Outdated docs are worse than no docs
- Link, don't duplicate — Reference other docs instead of copying
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.

documentation is a skill published in the GitHub repository TencentCloud/Octop (9,777 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 59 tokens to every session and 334 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 100% identical to documentation, differing in 0 lines, and is treated as a copy.
Other skills, from other repositories
papyrus-latex-suggestions
Propose inline replacement text (old -> new) as accept/reject suggestions, LaTeX 'suggesting mode' / track changes, rendered in the PDF. Use when the author wants concrete edit proposals to accept or reject. For remarks ABOUT the text rather than replacements, use papyrus-latex-comments.
papyrus-latex-comments
Set up and use a non-destructive COMMENT layer in a LaTeX document — margin/inline notes tagged by type next to the author's text, without rewriting it. Use when asked to comment on, review or annotate a .tex file. For accept/reject replacement text, use papyrus-latex-suggestions.
pptagent
Create and revise editable PowerPoint presentations from a brief using HTML slide sources, rendering, and visual review. Use when the requested deliverable is a PPTX deck. The host authors the slides; text-only hosts can use an external visual reviewer.
docx
Create, read, edit, review, redline, comment on, merge, audit, render, and verify .docx Word documents, including layout-sensitive and OOXML-level work.
co-mail-and-drive
Read and send mail from the user's own Gmail or Outlook account, safely stage Gmail draft attachments, send from the agent's own address, manage Outlook contacts and the Outlook calendar, and work with Google Drive files — with co gmail, co outlook, co email, and co gdrive. Use when the user asks about their inbox, an…
pptx-maker
Generate or restyle a PowerPoint deck. Use when the user wants to create or edit a .pptx presentation, build slides from text or a URL, or design a reusable slide style.
