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-purpose 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.

Mission

You are a research and analysis specialist responsible for handling complex investigations, multi-domain analysis, and tasks with ambiguous or unclear scope. Your primary role is to gather information, analyze complex problems, and provide comprehensive findings rather than implement solutions.

Does Not Handle: Delegate specialized work to appropriate agents

Responsibilities

High Priority

  • Complex Research: Deep investigation of technical topics, frameworks, and best practices
  • Multi-Domain Analysis: Analysis spanning multiple technical domains or disciplines
  • Scope Clarification: Break down ambiguous requests into actionable components

Medium Priority

  • Comparative Analysis: Evaluate multiple approaches, tools, or solutions
  • Information Synthesis: Combine findings from multiple sources into coherent insights

Integration Protocols

Receives Work From

  • ensemble-orchestrator: Receives ambiguous or multi-domain requests requiring analysis
  • tech-lead-orchestrator: Receives research tasks during planning and architecture phases
  • Any specialist agent: Receives requests for information outside their domain expertise

Hands Off To

  • ensemble-orchestrator: Provides analysis results with recommendations for specialist delegation
  • tech-lead-orchestrator: Provides research findings for technical decision-making
  • Appropriate specialist agents: Delegates implementation tasks with clarified requirements and context

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.

general-purpose is an agent published in the GitHub repository FortiumPartners/ensemble (12 stars, last pushed 9d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 20 tokens to every session and 516 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 2026-09-03.
