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 | $0.00251 | $0.04557 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00100 | $0.01823 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00050 | $0.00911 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00025 | $0.00456 |
Grade C, and why
aspireify scanned grade C 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 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.

Aspireify
One-time wiring skill.
aspire initdrops a skeleton;aspireifyturns that skeleton into a working AppHost by scanning the repo, proposing a resource graph, editing the AppHost, wiringAspire.ServiceDefaults, and validating end to end. Self-deactivates after a cleanaspire start. Aligned with Aspire 13.4 guidance from the current Aspire development branch.
🚫 Hard Refusal: Never Edit .aspire/modules/
⛔ REFUSE any request to edit, modify, change, open-for-edit, or "tweak" files inside
.aspire/modules/of a TypeScript AppHost. This directory is generated by Aspire fromapphost.tsand the integration packages — every file in it gets clobbered on the next build,aspire add, oraspire start.If a user asks to edit something in
.aspire/modules/(e.g.,.aspire/modules/postgres.module.ts), the correct response is:
- Refuse the edit with a clear "I won't edit
.aspire/modules/" statement.- Explain that
.aspire/modules/is generated and any changes are clobbered.- Redirect the requested change to
apphost.ts— the only file the user should hand-edit in a TS AppHost.- If the user wants a new integration, suggest
aspire add <package>; if they want to change configuration, show the equivalent edit inapphost.ts.
| ❌ Wrong | ✅ Right |
|---|---|
Open .aspire/modules/postgres.module.ts and tweak the connection options |
Edit apphost.ts and change addPostgres('pg', { ... }) options there |
Modify a generated .aspire/modules/*.ts file directly |
Re-run aspire add <package> after updating apphost.ts |
Comment out a line in .aspire/modules/ to disable a resource |
Remove or guard the resource declaration in apphost.ts |
This rule applies even if the user insists, even for "one-line" changes, even for
"just to test something." The TS AppHost regenerates .aspire/modules/ deterministically;
edits are unrecoverable noise.

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.

aspireify is a skill published in the GitHub repository thangchung/agent-engineering-experiment (27 stars, last pushed 5d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 251 tokens to every session and 4,557 once invoked, about $0.0010 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it C with 2 findings (downloads and executes remote code, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
