xarray-netcdf

xarray-netcdf is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from xjtulyc/awesome-rosetta-skills. It costs 40 tokens per session (7,358 once invoked), scanned A, original, no licence file.

A toolkit for analyzing labeled multi-dimensional data with xarray, a Python library that attaches names and coordinates to array dimensions. It supports NetCDF and HDF5 files, delayed Dask loading, data rechunking, Zarr storage, and CF conventions for climate and geoscience data.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to read and process NetCDF or HDF5 files, work with data too large to load at once, reorganize chunks, store data in Zarr, and follow CF metadata conventions.
Why use it?
It helps keep dimensions, coordinates, and metadata understandable when working with large scientific datasets.

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

xarray-netcdf 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.

The source is not reproduced here

A licence we could not identify

The repository carries a LICENSE file, but it is custom or dual enough that GitHub cannot name it and neither can this catalogue. Unknown terms are not permission, so the body is not copied here. Read the licence at the source and decide for yourself.

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.
