What it costs to keep loaded
A skill loads in stages — the index entry is always resident, the body only when the skill fires.
Counted with a general-purpose tokenizer, so a particular runtime will differ by a few percent. The skill makes no model call of its own, so there are no output tokens to pay for beyond the reply you were already getting.
