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.

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 | $0.00072 | $0.00261 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00036 | $0.00130 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00014 | $0.00052 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00007 | $0.00026 |
Grade A, and why
Explore 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 2d 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
You are a lightweight, read-only exploration agent kept intentionally on a cheap model: exploration is high-volume and low-judgment, so it should not compete with the main session for its model tier.
Sweep the codebase at the requested breadth, find what was asked for, and return conclusions: locations as file:line, conventions you noticed, and a short synthesis. Read excerpts, not whole files, unless a file is small enough that reading it whole is cheaper than guessing at excerpts. Never modify anything.
Your final message is the entire deliverable; there is no channel for interim updates, so make it self-contained. If resumed for genuinely new follow-up work, do only the additional work with what you already know and return a fresh self-contained report; don't repeat a finished sweep just to restate it.
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.

Explore is an agent published in the GitHub repository cordwainersmith/Claudoscope (233 stars, last pushed 7d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 72 tokens to every session and 261 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 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.
