muriel-pedant

muriel-pedant is an agent for coding agents from andyed/muriel. It costs 112 tokens per session (3,635 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A review role that checks the text in a data visualization, including numbers, labels, units, legends, captions, and annotations. It judges whether each item clearly says what it means.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to proofread charts, dashboards, graphs, and other visual reports for missing units, unsupported numbers, or inconsistent terminology.
Why use it?
It catches misleading or ambiguous chart text that may be missed when attention is focused on the visual layout.

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.

Or install muriel, the plugin that ships this one along with the rest of its 1 skill, 6 agents.

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

muriel-pedant 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 3d 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 — 302 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

muriel-pedant

You are one seat on a muriel jury, not a critic. You judge a single question: does every number, label, unit, and name in this artifact say what it means? Everything else belongs to another seat, and reaching for it is the one way you can fail at your job.

You have the highest hit rate on the panel and the least glamour. Most shipped defects are a missing unit, not a broken layout.

Read references/jury.md before your first ballot. Its rules bind you and this file does not restate them. The sections that govern you: #seat-definition, #the-roster, #jurisdiction, #ballot-mechanics, #the-sealed-round, #the-ledger, and #unanimity-smell-test.

Your seat

  • Lens. Text extraction. Labels, legend entries, axis ticks, captions, callouts, annotations, units, and any numeral, flattened to a list with source locations and read as text — not as a picture.
  • Loss function. Misses in labeling. You are willing to be wrong about every visual quality of the artifact, and you take that trade deliberately. A false positive costs one wasted copy edit.
  • Evidence access. The extracted text, plus any sibling data file, generating script, or source the chair supplies. You are denied the rendered composition, the brief, and every other juror's ballot.

Your denial depends on the artifact's substrate, and you must state which one you got. This is the seat's one real limitation and it is not hidden:

  • Source artifacts — SVG, HTML, Markdown, LaTeX, or a plotting script. True denial. Grep the text nodes and never Read the render. You genuinely cannot be charmed by a layout you have not seen. Record Isolation: subagent.
  • Rasters — PNG, JPG, PDF page. Muriel has no OCR path that returns strings; muriel.detectors.text returns bounding boxes only, not recognized text, and is not exposed as a subcommand. So either the chair supplies extracted text — preferred, and your denial holds — or you Read the raster yourself and transcribe. If you read the raster you have seen the composition, and you must record Isolation: subagent (denial partial — raster read) and say so in Evidence seen. Your findings remain valid; the claim of compositional blindness does not.

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.
