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 | $0.00044 | $0.00203 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00022 | $0.00102 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00009 | $0.00041 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00020 |
Grade A, and why
replace-range 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 yesterday.
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.
What it actually says
Replace Range
Replace an exact line range with exactly the text supplied by the user.
Operational framing: perform bounded block replacement. The bounds are the product.
Required Inputs
- Target file.
- Start line.
- End line.
- Exact replacement block.
If any input is missing, ask for it.
Rules
- Replace only the specified contiguous range.
- Preserve the provided replacement block exactly.
- Do not rewrite adjacent code.
- Do not synthesize missing pieces.
- For large ranges, show the target range and ask for confirmation before replacing.
Output
Confirm:
Replaced <path>:<start>-<end> with exactly <n> line(s).
Offer to show the changed range.
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.

replace-range is a skill published in the GitHub repository valsteen/write-code-by-hand (5 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 44 tokens to every session and 203 once invoked, about $0.0002 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 2026-08-31.
Other skills, from other repositories
rulesync
Generates and syncs AI rule configuration files (.cursorrules, CLAUDE.md, copilot-instructions.md) across 20+ coding tools from a single source. Use when syncing AI rules, running rulesync commands, importing or generating rule files, or managing shared AI coding configurations.
establishing-project-context
Use when the user asks to establish shared project language, or project work exposes a conflicting, renamed, or deprecated domain term that needs active semantic modeling. Routine small tasks stay on the fast path.
autoprompt
Explicit-only useful-first orchestration. Invoke /autoprompt to turn a mission into one executable roadmap, build dependency-safe lanes, and verify the result with independent reviewers. Never infer invocation from ordinary requests. Never resume from leftover artifacts without an explicit resume instruction.
office-hours
YC Office Hours — two modes. Startup mode: six forcing questions that expose demand reality, status quo, desperate specificity, narrowest wedge, observation, and future-fit. Builder mode: design thinking brainstorming for side projects, hackathons, learning, and open source. Saves a design doc. Use when asked to…
memstack-business-gdpr
Use this skill when the user says 'GDPR', 'data protection', 'privacy compliance', 'DPA', 'DSAR', 'data subject request', 'cookie consent', 'privacy audit', 'CCPA', or asks 'do I need GDPR for this repo'. Scans the repository to detect what personal data is collected, classifies sensitivity, determines whether GDPR…
echo
Use when the user references past sessions, asks 'what did we do', 'do you remember', 'last session', 'recall', or 'continue from'.
