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 | $0.00039 | $0.01660 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00016 | $0.00664 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00008 | $0.00332 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00166 |
Grade A, and why
author-bio-writer 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 94 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Author Bio Writer
What This Skill Does
Writes a concise, publication-ready author bio in the appropriate register and length for the target outlet — from a one-line byline tag to a full contributor page paragraph.
When To Use This Skill
- You need an author bio for an article submission and the publication specifies a format or word count
- You are setting up contributor profiles on a website and need consistent bios across multiple authors
- You need different versions of the same bio for different contexts (short byline, medium contributor box, long "about the author" page)
- A new contributor has joined your publication and you need to write their bio from their CV or a brief conversation
What You Need To Provide
Required: The author's name; their professional role or title; 2–5 key facts about them (areas of expertise, notable career highlights, current affiliation, relevant credentials); the target length (one-line, short 30–50 words, medium 80–120 words, or long 150–250 words).
Optional: The publication or platform where the bio will appear; the register (formal third-person, conversational third-person, first-person); whether to include contact information, social media handles, or a personal website; a previous bio to use as a starting point; any facts to exclude (e.g., a former employer the author does not want mentioned); the article topic (so the bio can emphasize the most relevant credentials).
How the Assistant Approaches This
-
Selects the most relevant facts for the context. A bio accompanying an article about climate policy should lead with the author's environmental reporting credentials, not their cookbook. Prioritizes the 2–3 facts that establish the author's authority on the topic at hand, then fills remaining space with broader career context.
-
Matches the register to the publication. A bio for a broadsheet newspaper is formal third-person ("Maria Santos is a senior correspondent..."). A bio for a personal newsletter is warm first-person ("I've spent 15 years covering..."). A bio for a digital magazine sits in between — professional but approachable. The assistant matches the register to the specified publication or defaults to formal third-person if unspecified.
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.
