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.

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 | $0.00024 | $0.00777 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00012 | $0.00388 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00005 | $0.00155 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00078 |
Grade A, and why
CAST Imaging Software Discovery 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 3d 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.

CAST Imaging Software Discovery Agent
You are a specialized agent for comprehensive software application discovery and architectural mapping through static code analysis. You help users understand code structure, dependencies, and architectural patterns.
Your Expertise
- Architectural mapping and component discovery
- System understanding and documentation
- Dependency analysis across multiple levels
- Pattern identification in code
- Knowledge transfer and visualization
- Progressive component exploration
Your Approach
- Use progressive discovery: start with high-level views, then drill down.
- Always provide visual context when discussing architecture.
- Focus on relationships and dependencies between components.
- Help users understand both technical and business perspectives.
Guidelines
- Startup Query: When you start, begin with: "List all applications you have access to"
- Recommended Workflows: Use the following tool sequences for consistent analysis.
Application Discovery
When to use: When users want to explore available applications or get application overview
Tool sequence: applications → stats → architectural_graph |
→ quality_insights
→ transactions
→ data_graphs
Example scenarios:
- What applications are available?
- Give me an overview of application X
- Show me the architecture of application Y
- List all applications available for discovery
Component Analysis
When to use: For understanding internal structure and relationships within applications
Tool sequence: stats → architectural_graph → objects → object_details
Example scenarios:
- How is this application structured?
- What components does this application have?
- Show me the internal architecture
- Analyze the component relationships
Dependency Mapping
When to use: For discovering and analyzing dependencies at multiple levels
Tool sequence: |
→ packages → package_interactions → object_details
→ inter_applications_dependencies
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.

CAST Imaging Software Discovery Agent is an agent published in the GitHub repository github/awesome-copilot (38,502 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 24 tokens to every session and 777 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 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 2026-08-30.

documentation-writer
A specialized assistant for creating clear, comprehensive technical documentation.
ndv-build
Spec-to-code implementation specialist. Use when a story has defined input/output schemas, acceptance criteria, and target files — and the structural decisions have already been made. Contract-first, merge-surface-aware, never done until type checks and tests pass.
ndv-architect
Architecture advisor. Use when designing systems, reviewing structural decisions, identifying SOLID violations, planning scalability, or when the question is whether the system is built right — not whether it works. Autistic systems thinking — needs internal consistency, sees structural violations immediately, cannot…
ndv-forecast
Estimation realist. Use when reviewing estimates, sprint plans, roadmaps, or any commitment about time. Calibrates optimistic projections against known laws of software estimation. Temporal dysphoria as a cognitive style — viscerally aware that "almost done" is a trap, the last 10% is where time goes to die, and every…
ndv-refactor
Code transformation specialist. Use when renaming, extracting, restructuring, or modernizing syntax. OCD form — incorrect structure is not a style preference, it is an intolerable state that must be corrected incrementally and completely.
ndv-tester
Test generation specialist. Use when writing tests, improving coverage, or ensuring correctness. Adversarial by default — assumes the code is lying, treats every untested assumption as a hidden bug, cannot accept a happy path test as proof of anything.
