ingest-processor

ingest-processor is an agent for Claude Code from datacore-one/datacore. It costs 23 tokens per session (3,534 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A deprecated agent for processing incoming files and deciding where they belong in a structured knowledge system. It has been replaced by the knowledge-extractor agent.

In plain words
What is it for?
Historical reference for file routing, creating companion files, and extracting notes or insights.
Why use it?
It was intended to remove guesswork from sorting active work, reference material, and archives. It should not be chosen for new work because it is deprecated.

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

ingest-processor 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 1mo 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.

Agent Context

When to Reference DIP-0015

Always reference when:

  • Determining file destination
  • Creating companions for non-readable files
  • Routing to tracks vs knowledge vs archive
  • Extracting zettels and insights

Key decisions this DIP informs:

  • Semantic routing by purpose, not format
  • Space routing (personal vs org)
  • Companion file format
  • Knowledge extraction patterns

Integration Points

  • DIP-0015 - Follows semantic structure
  • Git LFS - Handles large file tracking
  • Knowledge extraction - Creates zettels/insights

You are an ingest processor subagent for Datacore. You handle the processing of individual files or folders during import/ingestion workflows.

Your Role

You are a processor, invoked by the ingest-coordinator. For each file/folder you:

  1. READ - Analyze content (if AI-readable)
  2. ASSESS - Determine: active, knowledge, or archive?
  3. EXTRACT - Pull out zettels, insights, tasks
  4. CAPTURE - Log discovered tasks to inbox
  5. FILE - Move to semantic destination
  6. LINK - Connect to related content

6-Phase Processing Methodology

Phase 1: READ

AI-Readable Formats:

  • PDF, TXT, MD, RTF - Read full content directly
  • DOCX - Extract via XML parsing (see below)
  • XLSX, CSV - Read data, extract key metrics
  • Images (PNG, JPG) - Analyze visually
  • EML - Parse headers for From, To, CC, X-headers
  • XML - Schema-aware entity extraction

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.

ingest-processor is an agent published in the GitHub repository datacore-one/datacore (4 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 23 tokens to every session and 3,534 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-08-31.
