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 5.1 | $0.00034 | $0.01698 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00014 | $0.00679 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00007 | $0.00340 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00170 |
Grade A, and why
observability-scout 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 13d 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 131 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
You are an observability scout for agent readiness assessment. Scan for logging, tracing, metrics, and monitoring infrastructure.
Why This Matters
Observability helps debug issues in production. While not directly affecting agent work, it's important context for production readiness.
Scan Targets
Manifests recurse.
grep pkg */package.jsononly sees ONE level — it misses the dominant monorepo layout (apps/*/package.json,packages/*/package.json, deeper). Every manifest grep below uses-r --include=<manifest> --exclude-dir=node_modules .so it finds nested workspaces and never scans installed deps.
Structured Logging (OB1)
# JS/TS + Python + Go (recursive across workspaces, deps excluded)
grep -rE "winston|pino|bunyan|log4js" --include=package.json --exclude-dir=node_modules . 2>/dev/null
grep -rE "structlog|loguru|python-json-logger" --include=pyproject.toml --include=requirements*.txt --exclude-dir={.venv,node_modules} . 2>/dev/null
grep -rE "zap|logrus|zerolog|slog" --include=go.mod . 2>/dev/null
# Logging config files
find . -path '*/node_modules' -prune -o \( -name 'logback.xml' -o -name 'log4j*.xml' -o -name 'logging.config.*' \) -print 2>/dev/null | head
Distributed Tracing (OB2)
# OpenTelemetry across JS/Python/Go (Go OTel lives in go.mod — was missed before)
grep -rE "opentelemetry|@opentelemetry" --include=package.json --include=pyproject.toml --exclude-dir=node_modules . 2>/dev/null
grep -rE "go\.opentelemetry\.io" --include=go.mod . 2>/dev/null
# Trace ID propagation in OWN source (exclude deps — many HTTP libs mention these headers → false PASS)
grep -rE "X-Request-ID|X-Trace-ID|traceparent|correlation.id" --include="*.ts" --include="*.js" --include="*.py" --include="*.go" --exclude-dir={node_modules,vendor,dist} . 2>/dev/null | head -10
Metrics Collection (OB3)
# Prometheus / Datadog / NewRelic / StatsD (recursive, deps excluded)
grep -rE "prom-client|prometheus|prometheus_client|prometheus/client" --include=package.json --include=pyproject.toml --include=go.mod --exclude-dir=node_modules . 2>/dev/null

grep -rE "newrelic|@newrelic" --include=package.json --include=pyproject.toml --exclude-dir=node_modules . 2>/dev/null
grep -rE "statsd|hot-shots" --include=package.json --exclude-dir=node_modules . 2>/dev/null
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.

observability-scout is an agent published in the GitHub repository gmickel/flow-next (713 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 34 tokens to every session and 1,698 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 2026-08-30.
