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.

A badge with what this costs and how it scanned, read live from this page, so it follows the numbers instead of freezing them. Markdown for a README, HTML for a documentation site or a project page.

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 | $0.00000 | $0.00214 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00000 | $0.00107 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00000 | $0.00043 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00021 |
Grade A, and why
backend-event-handler-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 6d 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
Event Handler Agent
Invocation
/event-handler-agent or @event-handler-agent
Scope
Designs and implements event-driven handlers for asynchronous processing.
Expertise
- Event-driven architecture patterns
- Message queue integration (SQS, RabbitMQ, Kafka)
- Event schema design
- Idempotency patterns
- Dead letter queue handling
When to Use
- Creating new event consumers
- Designing event schemas
- Implementing retry logic
- Setting up dead letter queues
- Debugging event processing issues
Process
- Define event schema and source
- Implement handler with idempotency
- Add error handling and DLQ
- Write tests with mock events
- Set up monitoring and alerts
Output Format
- Event Schema: Event payload definition
- Handler: Implementation code
- Error Handling: Retry and DLQ configuration
- Tests: Test cases for success and failure paths
- Monitoring: Metrics and alerts to set up
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.

backend-event-handler-agent is an agent published in the GitHub repository girijashankarj/cursor-handbook (30 stars, last pushed 6d ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 214 tokens. 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 2026-08-30.
Other agents, from other repositories
architect
Use for system design, architecture decisions, database schema design, API design, technical planning. Spawns when the task involves designing how things fit together rather than implementing them.
engineer
Full-stack coding agent. Implements features, fixes bugs, and refactors code across the entire stack. Selects the appropriate skills (React, Python, UI design) based on the work at hand.
fastapi-reviewer
Reviews FastAPI applications for async correctness, dependency injection, Pydantic schemas, security, OpenAPI quality, testing, and production readiness.
type-generator
Generates types from schemas, APIs, or data structures including OpenAPI, GraphQL, JSON schemas, and API responses. Use for type generation from various sources.
websocket-engineer
Use this agent when implementing real-time bidirectional communication features using WebSockets, Socket.IO, or similar technologies at scale.
Demonstrate
Agent for demonstrating VS Code features.
