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 | $0.00086 | $0.03338 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00043 | $0.01669 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00017 | $0.00668 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00334 |
Grade A, and why
routeros-container 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 11d 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.

RouterOS Container Subsystem
Overview
RouterOS 7.x includes a container subsystem (/container) that runs OCI-compatible container images directly on MikroTik hardware. It is NOT Docker — it's MikroTik's own implementation with significant differences.
Requirements:
- RouterOS 7.x with
containerextra package installed - Device-mode must be enabled (requires physical access for initial setup)
- Sufficient storage (external USB disk recommended, 100+ MB/s, 10K+ random IOPS)
- ARM, ARM64, or x86 architecture (MIPS not supported for containers)
Device-Mode — Physical Access Required
Container support is gated behind device-mode, which requires physical confirmation (reset button press or power cycle) to enable:
# Enable container mode
/system/device-mode/update mode=advanced container=yes
# After executing: physically confirm within activation-timeout
# - Press reset button, OR
# - Power cycle the device
Device-mode is a general RouterOS security feature — not container-specific. It gates many features (scheduler, fetch, sniffer, etc.) across four modes (home, basic, advanced, rose) with device-dependent factory defaults.
For the full feature matrix, modes, update properties, and physical confirmation details: see the Device-mode reference in the routeros-fundamentals skill.
Mode script bypass (7.22+): During netinstall, a mode script (-sm) can set device-mode on first boot, automatically triggering a reboot. See the routeros-netinstall skill.
Installing the Container Package
# Check if container package is already installed
/system/package/print where name=container
Method 1: Upload .npk file + apply-changes (offline)
# Upload via SCP (or Winbox drag-and-drop, or WebFig file upload)
scp container-7.22-arm64.npk admin@router:/
# Apply changes (triggers reboot AND activates — /system/reboot does NOT work!)
/system/package/apply-changes
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.

routeros-container is a skill published in the GitHub repository tikoci/routeros-skills (59 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 86 tokens to every session and 3,338 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 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.
