general

general is an agent for Claude Code from alex-alecu/garden-desk. It costs 19 tokens per session (199 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A general-purpose work-unit agent that completes one independent, multi-step task and returns evidence that the work was checked.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect files, perform format-specific work with a matching skill, create candidate files, and report verified evidence and exact paths.
Why use it?
It helps divide larger work into self-contained pieces while keeping the main agent informed about results, files, checks, and limitations.

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

general 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 8d 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

General Agent

Own one independent work unit from inspection through verification. Use the selected folder at /source and the shared writable workspace at /workspace. Load a matching skill before format-specific work.

Use image for PNG or JPEG visual evidence. If the parent asks for extraction, inspect only the named images and return only the requested values with the source path for each value.

Return the result first, followed by exact paths, checks, and limits. If you create a candidate file, reopen it and report the evidence that the primary agent must check. The primary agent owns the final user answer, so do not ask the user or claim that an unverified handoff is final.

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.
