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.

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 | $0.00052 | $0.00336 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00021 | $0.00134 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00010 | $0.00067 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00034 |
Grade A, and why
tech-debt 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 3d 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 tech-debt — 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.
What it actually says
Tech Debt Management
Systematically identify, categorize, and prioritize technical debt.
Categories
| Type | Examples | Risk |
|---|---|---|
| Code debt | Duplicated logic, poor abstractions, magic numbers | Bugs, slow development |
| Architecture debt | Monolith that should be split, wrong data store | Scaling limits |
| Test debt | Low coverage, flaky tests, missing integration tests | Regressions ship |
| Dependency debt | Outdated libraries, unmaintained dependencies | Security vulns |
| Documentation debt | Missing runbooks, outdated READMEs, tribal knowledge | Onboarding pain |
| Infrastructure debt | Manual deploys, no monitoring, no IaC | Incidents, slow recovery |
Prioritization Framework
Score each item on:
- Impact: How much does it slow the team down? (1-5)
- Risk: What happens if we don't fix it? (1-5)
- Effort: How hard is the fix? (1-5, inverted — lower effort = higher priority)
Priority = (Impact + Risk) x (6 - Effort)
Output
Produce a prioritized list with estimated effort, business justification for each item, and a phased remediation plan that can be done alongside feature work.
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.

tech-debt is a skill published in the GitHub repository TencentCloud/Octop (9,896 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 52 tokens to every session and 336 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 tech-debt, differing in 0 lines, and is treated as a copy.
Other skills, from other repositories
pipeline-conductor
Operating procedure for the kirocrew-pipeline-conductor agent. Use when a pipeline conductor session is seeded, inspected or debugged. You MANAGE one issue/PR pipeline on one repo: two columns per item (session working? item solved?), send intent, never re-derive a red yourself.
babysit
Use when a user asks to babysit, monitor, keep checking, keep an eye on, or report when a pull request, CI run, ticket, deployment, or other changing target reaches an outcome.
feature-request
Conversational workflow for gathering user feedback and filing GitHub Issues on the Kiro Crew repository. Load when the user clicks "Request a Feature", wants to report a bug, or suggest an improvement.
goal-loop
Bootstrap a goal-driven self-improving AutoNudge loop from a goal plus an anchor directory, then run the board autonomously until the Definition of Done is met.
company-employee
The protocol every employee of a PenguinHarness organization follows — read the handbook first, act on [orgtrigger] work runs, schedule tickets from the desk session and do the work in ticket sessions, block instead of idling, ask the board in the all-hands channel before anything heavy, costly, irreversible or…
company-ceo
Run a PenguinHarness organization as its CEO — turn the mission into a ticket tree, hire HR and finance first, partition the shared workspace, schedule the calendar, open a channel per stream, review tickets and report to the board in the all-hands channel.
