COG is an AI-assisted second brain that stores knowledge in Markdown files and uses agents, skills, and version control to evolve it over time. It helps people manage knowledge and contacts while supporting several coding-agent tools; the catalogue entries are COG’s skills, agents, instructions, rules, and plugin surfaces.
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 | $0.00028 | $0.00086 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00014 | $0.00043 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00006 | $0.00017 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00009 |
Grade A, and why
brief-people-updater 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 12d 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
Read .claude/agents/brief-people-updater.md and adopt that role exactly, including its Output Rule — write results
to a file and return only a short status plus the file path.
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.

brief-people-updater is an agent published in the GitHub repository huytieu/COG-second-brain (1,183 stars, last pushed 17d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 28 tokens to every session and 86 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.

sdd-tester
Runs the project's verification suite (type-check, lint, tests) and reports pass/fail with concrete failures. Use AFTER the implementer finishes a task and BEFORE the verifier. Read-only on source. Stack-agnostic — reads the commands from .memory/30-tech.md.
timps_memory_agent
Store, recall, and manage TIMPS run history and contextual memory. Use the timpsmemoryagent MCP tool to perform this task. Do not answer directly — delegate to this sub-agent.
product-strategy-analyst
Use this agent for product discovery, scope definition, and requirement shaping before implementation in this repository.
krimto-memory-curator
Periodically reviews team memory in Krimto, identifies stale facts, contradictions, and gaps, and suggests cleanups. Use weekly or before major team decisions to keep memory quality high.
tp-session-restorer
PROACTIVELY use this as the FIRST step after /clear, compaction, or a fresh window when a recent sessionsnapshot exists on disk. Reads snapshot + git status + saved docs, returns a ≤200-token briefing. Do NOT use mid-task.
