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 high
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 | $0.00034 | $0.02623 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00017 | $0.01311 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00007 | $0.00525 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00262 |
Grade A, and why
cocosearch-deps 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 10d 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.

Dependency Graph Exploration with CocoSearch
A guided workflow for understanding how files connect through dependencies. Use this skill when the goal is specifically about dependency relationships — impact analysis, connection tracing, or hub identification.
When to use this skill vs. others:
| Goal | Skill |
|---|---|
| "What breaks if I change X?" | cocosearch-deps (this skill) |
| "How does X work?" | cocosearch-explore |
| "I need to safely refactor X" | cocosearch-refactoring (uses deps as part of impact analysis) |
| "Trace this bug through call chains" | cocosearch-debugging (uses deps for call tracing) |
| "What are the most connected files?" | cocosearch-deps (this skill) |
| "How are X and Y connected?" | cocosearch-deps (this skill) |
Pre-flight Check
- Resolve index name (use the resolved name for all operations):
- Try
cocosearch.yamlforindexNamefield -- if found, use it - If no config file, call
list_indexes()and match the current project's directory name against available indexes. The MCP tools auto-derive index names from directory paths (e.g.,my-project/->my_project), so a match is likely if the repo was indexed without a config file. - If no match found, the project is genuinely not indexed -- offer to index it. Do NOT abandon CocoSearch tools just because
cocosearch.yamlis missing.
- Try
list_indexes()to confirm project is indexed- Verify dependency index exists and is fresh — call
get_file_dependencieson any known file:
get_file_dependencies(file="<any-known-file>", depth=1)
- If error or empty: Dependency index is missing. Offer:
"No dependency data found. Want me to extract dependencies? This requires running
index_codebasewith deps extraction orcocosearch deps extract .via CLI." Do NOT proceed without dependency data -- this skill relies entirely on it. - If response contains
warningswith typedeps_outdatedordeps_branch_drift: Warn: "Dependency data is outdated and may not reflect recent changes. Want me to re-extract dependencies first? (index_codebasewithextract_deps=True)" Do NOT proceed without user acknowledgment -- stale deps can lead to incorrect analysis. - If results returned with no warnings: Dependency index is ready, proceed.
- Linked index health (if
cocosearch.yamlhaslinkedIndexes):- Check the
warningsarray fromindex_stats()for entries starting with "Linked index" - If stale/missing: warn user — "Linked index 'X' is stale/missing. Cross-project dependency tracing may be incomplete. Want me to reindex?"

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.

cocosearch-deps is a skill published in the GitHub repository VioletCranberry/coco-search (37 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 34 tokens to every session and 2,623 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 2026-08-30.

vera
Code search over the current repository. Before reading files to answer "where is X", "how does Y work", "find Z", or "what calls W", run vera search " " or vera references first. Use vera grep for exact strings and regex, vera structural for definitions, routes, and env reads. Do not read multiple files hoping to…
codebase-search
Semantic code and documentation search by meaning. Use codebasepeek to find WHERE code is (saves tokens), codebasesearch to see actual code. For exact identifiers, use grep instead. Search local codebase before using websearch for code/library/API/example questions.
gno
Search local documents, files, notes, and knowledge bases. Index directories, search with BM25/vector/hybrid, get AI answers with citations. Use when user wants to search files, find documents, query notes, look up information in local folders, index a directory, set up document search, build a knowledge base, needs…

Preferred local codebase-understanding workflow for Pi and Codex. Start with codebasecontext before shell search or broad reads, then use specialized semantic and graph tools.
