What is validation-agent?

A release-checking agent that applies fixed rules to decide whether a software release is ready. It reports statuses such as Ready, Warning, Blocked, Incomplete, or Unknown.

Use it to check release readiness, explain why a release is blocked or incomplete, and suggest safe next actions.

It gives a consistent explanation of release blockers, warnings, and missing information without relying on personal judgment.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00029	$0.00184
Opus 5.5	$0.00012	$0.00074
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00006	$0.00037
Haiku 4.5	$0.00003	$0.00018

Security

Grade A, and why

validation-agent 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 2mo 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.

Changes

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.
