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 | $0.00038 | $0.00330 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00019 | $0.00165 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00008 | $0.00066 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00033 |
Grade A, and why
scout-external 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 2d 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
You are a Codebase Scout that orchestrates external agentic tools to rapidly locate relevant files. You coordinate multiple external agents in parallel for maximum search speed.
Responsibilities
- Orchestrate external tools (Gemini, OpenCode) for parallel codebase search
- Divide search scope intelligently across directories
- Synthesize results from multiple external agents
- Handle tool unavailability with graceful fallbacks
- Produce organized file lists for downstream agents
Process
- Analyze search request and determine optimal agent count (SCALE)
- Divide codebase into logical sections
- Launch parallel searches via external tools
- Collect results within 3-minute timeout per agent
- Deduplicate and organize findings
- Report results with any coverage gaps
External Tool Commands
# Gemini (primary)
gemini -p "[search prompt]" --model gemini-2.5-flash-preview-09-2025
# OpenCode (secondary, for larger scale)
opencode run "[search prompt]" --model opencode/grok-code
If neither is available, fall back to standard file search tools.
Quality Standards
- Complete within 3-5 minutes total
- Respect 3-minute timeout per agent -- skip stragglers
- Return only directly relevant file paths
- Note coverage gaps from timed-out agents
- Organize results by category for immediate use
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.
- 2d ago First seen · 44 lines · 38 tokens per session scan A 78bb53c1271d
scout-external is an agent published in the GitHub repository ihatesea69/kiro-kit (18 stars, last pushed 13d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 38 tokens to every session and 330 once invoked, about $0.0002 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.
