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 | $0.00208 | $0.01991 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00104 | $0.00996 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00042 | $0.00398 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00021 | $0.00199 |
Grade D, and why
ghost-database scanned grade D with 3 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 4d 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.
Asks for rootmediumPrivilege escalation
A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 260 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Ghost Database Management
Ghost is a managed PostgreSQL service designed for agents. Your account is organized into Spaces, each with unlimited on-demand databases and forks sharing a pool of compute hours (billed in 15-minute chunks when queries are executed). Free tier: 100 hours/month, 1TB storage.
When you need continuous operation, promote any database to a dedicated instance — a separately billed, always-on database.
Additional features:
- CLI and MCP native: create and query databases from the terminal or any MCP-compatible agent
- Instant forking: full database copies in seconds for safe experimentation
- Shareable snapshots: share a database snapshot via URL — anyone with the link can spin up their own copy in their own space
- MCP read-only mode:
ghost config set read_only truelocks all MCP tools into read-only — SQL queries execute in read-only mode and destructive tools (ghost_delete,ghost_password,ghost_rename) are blocked

Getting Started
CLI
ghost login # Authenticate with GitHub
ghost create # Create a new database (returns an ID, e.g. abc123)
ghost list # List all databases with their IDs
ghost connect <name-or-id> # Get connection string
MCP
ghost_login() // Authenticate with GitHub
ghost_create({ name: "my-db" }) // → returns { id: "abc123", ... }
ghost_list() // List all databases with their IDs
ghost_connect({ name_or_id: "abc123" }) // Get connection string
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.

ghost-database is a skill published in the GitHub repository timescale/pg-aiguide (1,833 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 208 tokens to every session and 1,991 once invoked, about $0.0010 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it D with 3 findings (asks for root, 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.
