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 | $0.00000 | $0.00958 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00000 | $0.00479 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00000 | $0.00192 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00096 |
Grade A, and why
bash scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 2d 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.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 100 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Shared Brain — Bash CLI Adapter
Command-line interface for the Zengram system. Use this to store, search, and retrieve shared memories from any terminal-based agent or script.

What ships with it
1 file 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.

bash is a skill published in the GitHub repository ZenSystemAI/Zengram (60 stars, last pushed 10d ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 958 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.

skill-compact
Analyze, deduplicate, and restructure agent skills to follow agentskills.io best practices. Merges duplicate skills, extracts shared content into references, reduces SKILL.md sizes, and tracks original sources for update-then-recompact workflows. Use when the user mentions "compact skills", "deduplicate skills"…
skill-beta
Another sample skill for testing. Use when the user wants to create widgets with advanced features or mentions beta testing.
skill-alpha
A sample skill for testing. Use when the user mentions alpha testing, widget creation, or component design patterns.
skill-gamma
A completely different skill for database operations. Use when working with PostgreSQL queries, schema design, or database migrations.
