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 5.1 | $0.00279 | $0.27903 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00139 | $0.13952 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00056 | $0.05581 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00028 | $0.02790 |
Grade A, and why
sqlencryption-review 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 9d 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.

SQL Server Encryption Review Skill
Purpose
Audit the complete encryption posture of a SQL Server instance or database. Applies 112 checks (A1–A112) across 20 categories:
- A1–A8 — Transparent Data Encryption (TDE): scan state, algorithm strength, certificate lifecycle, cross-database cert sharing risks
- A9–A16 — Always Encrypted: encryption type selection, CEK algorithm, secure enclave availability, CMK store quality, sensitive-column coverage, key rotation
- A17–A21 — Cell-Level Encryption (CLE): deprecated algorithms, open-key scope leaks, password-only key protection, rotation age, strategy conflicts
- A22–A25 — Backup Encryption: unencrypted backups, certificate backup status, algorithm strength, certificate expiry
- A26–A30 — Transport / Connection Encryption: ForceEncryption enforcement, unencrypted active sessions, self-signed TLS certificates, TrustServerCertificate bypass, TLS cert expiry
- A31–A38 — Certificate Management: private key protection, Service Broker and AG endpoint certificates, certificate-based login permissions, signature hash algorithm, CA trust chain, backup strategy, duplicate subjects
- A39–A43 — Asymmetric and Symmetric Key Management: RSA key length, over-permissioned keys, rotation age, orphaned keys, non-unique KEY_SOURCE
- A44–A48 — Key Hierarchy (DMK / SMK): backup status, SMK protection layer, password-only risks, linked-server encryption
- A49–A52 — EKM / Azure Key Vault: provider health, BYOK rotation policy, service-managed vs. customer-managed TDE, provider version
- A53–A56 — Compliance and Coverage: sensitivity-classified columns without encryption, sensitive-pattern columns unprotected, non-FIPS algorithms, missing audit configuration
- A57–A62 — TLS and Network Encryption Hardening: legacy TLS version audit, weak cipher detection, TLS 1.3 enforcement, IPsec as compensating control, Kerberos armoring, Named Pipes risk
- A63–A67 — Always Encrypted Advanced: enclave attestation completeness, driver version compatibility, CEK caching configuration, enclave utilization, attestation protocol enforcement
- A68–A72 — Operational Key Lifecycle: DMK/SMK password strength, certificate auto-enrollment, key archival/escrow procedures, TDE scan I/O baselining, log backup encryption
- A73–A76 — SQL Server Ledger (SQL 2022+): database ledger enablement, digest storage configuration, hash algorithm strength, ledger verification scheduling
- A77–A80 — Azure-Specific Encryption: TDE protector region placement, double encryption (infrastructure + TDE), enclave attestation provider isolation, audit log encryption at rest
- A81–A86 — DMK Password Auto-Open: sp_control_dbmasterkey_password coverage, SSISDB DMK registration, SMK restore invalidation, non-SMK DMK auto-open paths, cross-server restore, AG secondaries
- A87–A91 — Dynamic Data Masking and Permission Patterns: masking vs. encryption, UNMASK scope, certificate CONTROL permission, RLS on AE columns, CLE cipher text leakage
- A92–A98 — Compliance Explicit Checks: PCI-DSS v4 PAN column encryption, annual key rotation evidence, GDPR Art. 17 ledger conflict, FIPS mode enforcement, HSM provider for FIPS, key custodian documentation, HIPAA PHI audit trail
- A99–A104 — Operational Validation: SQL Agent job step passwords, plan cache password exposure, AKV soft-delete/purge protection, annual backup restore test, credential rotation, AG listener TLS
- A105–A112 — Advanced Cryptographic Patterns: cipher suite ordering, NTLM on remote connections, Service Broker cross-DB cert, ENCRYPTBYPASSPHRASE weakness, HASHBYTES deprecated algorithms, Database Mail SMTP credentials, CLE cert expiry monitoring, Azure MI managed identity AKV permissions

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.

sqlencryption-review is a skill published in the GitHub repository vanterx/mssql-performance-skills (5 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 279 tokens to every session and 27,903 once invoked, about $0.0014 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.
