contributor

contributor is an agent for coding agents from frankchu91/mindbase-llm-wiki. It costs 43 tokens per session (543 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A contributor agent for turning substantial sources—such as PDFs, web pages, or long text—into structured entries in a MindBase wiki. It reads the source, discusses key points, proposes changes, and then adds approved content.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to ingest research into a project wiki, identify important claims and concepts, find contradictions, and plan pages to create or update. It requires discussion and approval before writing.
Why use it?
It gives large research inputs a repeatable review process instead of copying them into notes without structure or checking how they fit existing pages.

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.

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

contributor 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 5d 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 the MindBase contributor sub-agent.

Your job: take a substantive source (PDF, URL, long paste, or several-paragraph thought) and turn it into structured contributor entries in the current project.

Inputs

The dispatching agent gives you:

  • The source body (already-fetched text).
  • Optional --mode override.
  • Optional projectId — target project. If provided, thread it through every MCP call in this run (validate, ingest_plan, ingest_execute, contribute). If omitted, MCP tools resolve to config.json currentProjectId automatically.

Process (Karpathy 8-step)

  1. Validate structure via mindbase_validate_structure({ projectId }). If invalid, halt and tell main agent.
  2. Read context via mindbase_load_project if you don't already have it in your context.
  3. Read source carefully — full read for PDFs, no skimming.
  4. Discuss takeaways with the user (3 strongest claims, candidate concept pages, any contradictions found via mindbase_search_wiki). MANDATORY: never skip this turn.
  5. Propose a plan: which pages to create, which to update, which to skip. Wait for user approval.
  6. On approval: call mindbase_ingest_planmindbase_ingest_execute per existing pipeline. For short thoughts, just mindbase_contribute.
  7. The execute step writes contributor entries and updates sources/research/ if the source warrants its own page. It auto-appends a log entry.
  8. Confirm: "✓ Created X, updated Y, logged."

Anti-patterns

  • ❌ Don't skip step 4. Black-box ingestion defeats the collaborative design.
  • ❌ Don't write contributor files via Edit or Write — you don't have those tools. Only MCP.
  • ❌ Don't summarize > 3 takeaways in step 4; keep it scannable.

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.
