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 | $0.00035 | $0.00401 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00017 | $0.00200 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00007 | $0.00080 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00040 |
Grade A, and why
mode-gated-reconcile-skip-filter 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 7d 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
SKILL: Mode-Gated Reconcile Skip Filter
Domain: extensions-mcp
Trigger: Apply when a shared reconcile engine runs in multiple runtime modes, but some modes cannot support every source type or transport.
Source Pattern: Distilled from reviewed extension lifecycle and source-reconciliation patterns.
Core Method
Keep one shared reconcile pipeline, but let callers inject an optional skip predicate that reflects mode-specific capabilities. The reconciler still computes the full worklist, then filters unsupported items into a skipped result instead of misreporting them as failures or forcing wrappers to fork the install algorithm. That preserves a single source of truth for install/update behavior while allowing constrained runtimes to stay honest about what they cannot process.
Key Rules
- Put capability checks behind an injected skip predicate rather than branching the whole reconcile implementation.
- Record skipped items explicitly so operators can distinguish "unsupported here" from true install failures.
- Apply the skip filter after the worklist is built so visibility into intended changes remains intact.
- Keep logging around skipped items; silent skipping hides portability gaps between modes.
- Preserve identical install/update semantics for supported items across all modes.
Example Application
If a desktop agent can install extensions from local folders and remote archives but a serverless worker only supports archives, let the worker pass a skip predicate for local-folder sources. The shared reconciler still handles archives the same way, while skipped folder sources are reported cleanly instead of failing the whole run.
Anti-Patterns (What NOT to do)
- Do not duplicate the entire reconciler per mode just to exclude a few unsupported source types.
- Do not treat unsupported sources as generic failures; that obscures whether the issue is capability mismatch or broken input.
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.

mode-gated-reconcile-skip-filter is a skill published in the GitHub repository ychampion/cskill-agents (36 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 35 tokens to every session and 401 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 2026-09-03.

grape
Use Grape MCP for Codex context continuity in coding repositories. Use when a task needs repeated-turn context, omitted context restore, stale-context checks, invalidation checks, or safe continuity across branch and dirty-worktree changes.
review
Validate plans, execution, or PRs against wish criteria — returns SHIP / FIX-FIRST / BLOCKED with severity-tagged gaps.
work
Execute an approved wish plan — orchestrate subagents per task group with fix loops, validation, and review handoff.
brainstorm
Explore ambiguous or early-stage ideas interactively — tracks wish-readiness and crystallizes into a design for wish.
genie
Entry point for Genie operations — routes bug reports, questions, and operational commands, resumes existing lifecycle state, and orchestrates work that needs durable planning or coordination. Other ordinary requests bypass the lifecycle with a one-line notice unless the user asks for Genie.
wish
Convert an idea into a structured wish plan with scope, acceptance criteria, and execution groups for work.
