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.

SkillSpector: 1 finding, up to medium
These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

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 | $0.00092 | $0.03447 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00037 | $0.01379 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00018 | $0.00689 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00345 |
Grade A, and why
create-article scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 17d 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.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.
7. Verify all links: curl every URL in the article and replace any that return 4xx, 5xx, or connection errors. How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 248 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Write Article
Produces a high-quality article from a target audience definition and a set of relevant sources. Adapts tone, depth, and structure to fit the audience.
Prerequisites
- Target audience: Who will read this article (e.g., "senior backend engineers", "product managers unfamiliar with ML", "general tech enthusiasts")
- Relevant sources: URLs, file paths, or inline content to draw from (research papers, blog posts, docs, notes, etc.)
- Topic (optional): If not inferable from sources, state the article topic explicitly
If sources are not yet gathered, run /research-article first to discover the state of the art and produce a research brief whose key sources feed this skill.
If you decide not to run it, say so and give your reasoning before proceeding, so the user can course-correct.
This applies to every article, including opinion and perspective pieces. An opinion piece is not exempt from research: before taking a position, gather the sources that inform it (the strongest arguments for and against, relevant data, prior writing on the topic) and cite them. Research is the difference between a supportable position and an unsupported hot take, and it is what the reader uses to judge the argument. If a perspective piece genuinely has no external sources (for example, it reports on the author's own first-hand experience), say so explicitly and note what the argument is based on instead.
Planning
For a long-form article (roughly four or more sections, or any article whose structure is not already fixed by a template), settle the argument and structure before drafting by running the create-article-plan skill, which writes plan.md next to the article.
Skip it for a short templated piece (for example a research note on a fixed skeleton), where the template is the plan, and for a revision that does not change the argument or section structure.
The plan's format and self-check live in that skill; this skill owns drafting and revision.
Draft from plan.md when one exists, so the article delivers the planned argument.
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.

create-article is a skill published in the GitHub repository tomzx/agents (13 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 92 tokens to every session and 3,447 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
