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 | $0.00000 | $0.02420 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00968 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00484 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00242 |
Grade A, and why
control 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.

No licence file
A repository with no LICENSE is all rights reserved by default, so the body is not copied here. The metadata, the measurements and the link are.
What ships with it
1 file 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.

control is a skill published in the GitHub repository thcjp/hermes-skills (1 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), with no licence file. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 2,420 tokens. 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 2026-08-31.

cross-functional-alignment
Bring engineering, design, research, marketing, and sales onto the same page and keep them there. Covers alignment levels, RACI clarity, and continuous maintenance. Use when teams have different understandings of what's being built, cross-team dependencies are causing problems, or alignment keeps breaking down.

Use when PM-engineering relationships feel transactional, technical decisions are made without product input, or scope conversations become adversarial.
feedback-synthesis
Turn raw customer feedback from multiple sources into clear product insights and priorities. Covers feedback collection, pattern recognition, and separating signal from noise. Use when feedback feels overwhelming, contradictory, or when the team can't agree on what users actually want.
