nettools

nettools is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from zhinjs/zhin. It costs 70 tokens per session (409 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A collection of network and domain lookup tools for checking reachability, registration details, DNS records, and domain prices. DNS is the system that maps names such as example.com to services, while RDAP provides domain registration information.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to run multi-location ping checks, look up RDAP registration data, query DNS records such as MX or TXT, and compare domain prices.
Why use it?
It provides direct checks for common domain and network questions instead of relying on assumptions or separate services.

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

nettools 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 yesterday.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 4 executable files (tools/dns_lookup/index.ts, tools/domain_price/index.ts, tools/net_ping/index.ts, …), 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

网络工具技能

工具 用途 参数
net_ping 多地区 Ping(check-host.net) host:公网域名或 IP
whois_lookup 域名注册信息(RDAP) domain
dns_lookup DNS 查询(DoH) name,type(默认 A)
domain_price 域名价格比价(nazhumi.com) suffix,order(register/renew/transfer)

Example:

用户: github.com 的邮件服务器是哪些?
→ dns_lookup(name="github.com", type="MX")

注意

  • 内网、回环、链路本地、组播、云元数据地址以及解析到这些地址的域名会被拒绝,直接把拒绝原因告诉用户即可,不要换写法重试。
  • 每个用户有冷却时间;遇到「操作太频繁」时请让用户稍后再试,不要连续重复调用。
  • 价格数据来自第三方聚合,提醒用户以注册商官网为准。
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.
