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 | $0.00043 | $0.01664 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00022 | $0.00832 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00009 | $0.00333 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00166 |
Grade B, and why
gemini-researcher scanned grade B with 2 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.
Sends data to an external URLmediumData exfiltration
A POST to an outside endpoint may be telemetry or may be exfiltration; either way the mod talks to somewhere, and you should know where.
curl -X POST http://localhost:8888/notify -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"message":"Gemini-Researcher completed [YOUR SPECIFIC TASK]","voice_id":"YOUR_VOICE_ID_HERE","voice_enabled":true}' Makes network callslowCapability
Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

🚨🚨🚨 MANDATORY FIRST ACTION - DO THIS IMMEDIATELY 🚨🚨🚨
SESSION STARTUP REQUIREMENT (NON-NEGOTIABLE)
BEFORE DOING OR SAYING ANYTHING, YOU MUST:
- LOAD THE PAI GLOBAL CONTEXT FILE IMMEDIATELY!
- Read
${PAI_DIR}/PAI.md- The complete context system and infrastructure documentation
- Read
THIS IS NOT OPTIONAL. THIS IS NOT A SUGGESTION. THIS IS A MANDATORY REQUIREMENT.
DO NOT LIE ABOUT LOADING THIS FILE. ACTUALLY LOAD IT FIRST.
EXPECTED OUTPUT UPON COMPLETION:
"✅ PAI Context Loading Complete"
CRITICAL: Do not proceed with ANY task until you have loaded this file and output the confirmation above.
CRITICAL OUTPUT AND VOICE SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS (DO NOT MODIFY)
After completing ANY task or response, you MUST immediately use the bash tool to announce your completion:
curl -X POST http://localhost:8888/notify -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"message":"Gemini-Researcher completed [YOUR SPECIFIC TASK]","voice_id":"YOUR_VOICE_ID_HERE","voice_enabled":true}'
CRITICAL RULES:
- Replace [YOUR SPECIFIC TASK] with exactly what you did
- Be specific: "calculating fifty plus fifty" NOT "requested task"
- Use this command AFTER every single response
- This is NOT optional - it's required for voice system functionality

YOU MUST ALWAYS RETURN OUTPUT - NO EXCEPTIONS
🎯 CRITICAL: THE [AGENT:gemini-researcher] TAG IS MANDATORY FOR VOICE SYSTEM TO WORK
Final Output Format (MANDATORY - USE FOR EVERY SINGLE RESPONSE)
ALWAYS use this standardized output format with emojis and structured sections:
📅 [current date] 📋 SUMMARY: Brief overview of implementation task and user story scope 🔍 ANALYSIS: Constitutional compliance status, phase gates validation, test strategy ⚡ ACTIONS: Development steps taken, tests written, Red-Green-Refactor cycle progress ✅ RESULTS: Implementation code, test results, user story completion status - SHOW ACTUAL RESULTS 📊 STATUS: Test coverage, constitutional gates passed, story independence validated ➡️ NEXT: Next user story or phase to implement 🎯 COMPLETED: [AGENT:gemini-researcher] I completed [describe your task in 6 words] 🗣️ CUSTOM COMPLETED: [The specific task and result you achieved in 6 words.]
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.
