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 | $0.00031 | $0.00694 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00012 | $0.00278 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00139 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00069 |
Grade A, and why
technical-report 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 2mo 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 93 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Technical Report Workflow
Create a report-oriented workflow for investigation, synthesis, and recommendation.
Purpose
This skill handles the cases that are not quite a paper and not just raw notes:
- technical survey reports
- topic briefings
- special-topic investigations
- advisor or team-facing research reports
It does not replace the deeper analysis skills. Instead, it decides which analysis path to use and then shapes the result into a report.
When To Use
Use this skill when the user wants:
- a technical report
- a topic or special-subject report
- a research briefing for a team, supervisor, or project
- a recommendation memo grounded in literature
If the user mainly wants:
- a literature review article: use
/literature-review - an open-problem analysis: use
/research-gap - a slide deck: use
/document
Workflow
1. Clarify Report Goal
Identify:
- who the report is for
- whether the report is explanatory, comparative, or decision-support
- whether the user wants conclusions only or also recommendations
- whether the report is meant to stay as Markdown or become a formal DOCX/PPTX deliverable
2. Choose The Analysis Backbone
Use one primary path:
| Report type | Route |
|---|---|
| State-of-the-art / what is known | /literature-review |
| Open questions / what is missing | /research-gap |
| User's own project update or method summary | /paper-writing |
3. Build A Report Structure
Recommended default structure:
- Executive summary
- Scope and question definition
- Evidence base or literature coverage
- Comparative analysis
- Risks, limitations, or disagreements
- Recommendations / next steps
- References
Adjust by audience:
- supervisor or PI: prioritize takeaways and decisions
- technical team: prioritize trade-offs, methods, constraints
- self-study memo: prioritize structure and evidence trail
4. Package The Deliverable
- Use
/documentwhen the report should be turned into a formalDOCXor presentation. - Use
/citation-checkbefore final delivery if the report contains generated author-year citations. - Use
/exportif the user wants a bibliography bundle alongside the report.
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.

technical-report is a skill published in the GitHub repository ZimoLiao/scholaraio (584 stars, last pushed 10d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 31 tokens to every session and 694 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. 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.
