Token cost

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.

ModelPer sessionOnce invoked
Fable 5.1 $0.00036 $0.00479
Opus 5.5 $0.00014 $0.00192

Security

Grade A, and why

skill-tag-taxonomist 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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 3 executable files (scripts/asset_toolkit/validate_hooks.py, scripts/check.py, scripts/tag_report.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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

Skill Tag Taxonomist

Propose and audit tag assignments for repository skills and catalog entries.

Scope: Tag inference and reporting only. Does not edit generated catalog indexes or authoring MDX.

Dispatch

$ARGUMENTS Action
<name> Tag report for one skill
repo / --all Tag matrix for all repo skills
--format json Machine-readable report
Empty Show tag heuristics and example commands

Tag Heuristics

Tag Signal
conventions Name or description mentions conventions, standards, lint
orchestration orchestrator, delegate, ensemble, workflow
security security, audit, scanner, quarantine
docs docs, readme, steward, catalog
mcp mcp, server, registry
eval eval, scaffold, adequacy

Workflow

uv run python skills/skill-tag-taxonomist/scripts/tag_report.py <name>
uv run python skills/skill-tag-taxonomist/scripts/tag_report.py --all --format json

Apply tag changes in docs/src/authoring/skills/<id>.mdx or skill metadata — not via generated catalog pages.

Validation Contract

uv run python skills/skill-tag-taxonomist/scripts/check.py

Critical Rules

  1. Treat inferred tags as proposals until a maintainer confirms them.
  2. Never hand-edit skills-catalog-index.json or generated catalog MDX.
  3. Prefer kebab-case tag ids aligned with docs catalog routes.
  4. Pair tag audits with skill-compat-matrix for harness-specific caveats.
  5. Route catalog authoring edits to docs-steward after human review.
Files

What ships with it

4 files 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.

Changes

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.
