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 | $0.00048 | $0.00145 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00024 | $0.00072 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00010 | $0.00029 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00015 |
Grade A, and why
estimate-tokens 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 12d 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.
What it actually says
Token Estimator
This skill loads full instructions on activation. Read INSTRUCTIONS.md before proceeding.
TRIGGER: "estimate tokens", "count tokens", "token usage", "context window size" DO NOT USE: for manual token math — always run the script
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.
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.

estimate-tokens is a skill published in the GitHub repository xg-gh-25/SwarmAI (44 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 48 tokens to every session and 145 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.

babysit
Use when the user says "babysit", "monitor", "keep checking", "keep an eye on", "loop on this PR", "let me know when", or wants polling that outlives a wait+poll window. Same-session monitoring loop for PRs, CI runs, tickets, and deployments using the monitorstart / monitorupdate / autonudgestop MCP tools. The loop…
rubber-duck
Adversarial "rubber duck" review that turns explaining-out-loud into a hallucination check. The main session is the PRESENTER (it did the work — a design doc, investigation, or analysis — and holds the real reasoning) and reconstructs the topic to a LISTENER — a spawned subagent pinned to a DIFFERENT-vendor model that…
author-skill
Use when authoring a NEW rsc skill or editing an existing one — scoping it to one job, writing the description that decides whether it ever loads, splitting the body into references/, writing its evals, auditing it against the rubric. NOT building a product feature (that is specify) and NOT designing an agent loop…
Send and read email from the terminal using whatever native CLI is installed (himalaya, msmtp/mutt/neomutt on Linux, or AppleScript Mail on macOS). Use when asked to "send an email", "email someone", "check my inbox", "read my email", "reply to".
calendar
Create, list, and manage calendar events / meetings from the terminal using whatever native CLI is installed (gcalcli for Google Calendar, khal for CalDAV, or AppleScript Calendar on macOS). Use when asked to "schedule a meeting", "create an event", "what's on my calendar", "am I free", "book".
reminders
Create and list reminders / to-dos and time-based nudges using native tooling (AppleScript Reminders on macOS, or ChatCLI's own @scheduler for a timed message back to the user). Use when asked to "remind me", "set a reminder", "add a to-do", "don't let me forget".
