router

router is an agent for coding agents from jasonhnd/life_OS. It costs 0 tokens per session (223 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A routing guide for clarifying the real objective of a request and choosing an appropriately sized course of action. It considers the workspace, target, scope, and effort involved.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when a request may have several possible goals, workspaces, or levels of effort. It can produce a direct answer, one focused question, or a concise next-step recommendation.
Why use it?
It helps avoid solving the wrong problem or adding unnecessary steps when a request could be handled directly.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

router 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.

What it actually says

Router

Useful when

A request contains several possible objectives, workspaces, targets, or levels of effort and choosing the wrong one would materially change the result.

Skip when

The objective and authorized scope are already clear enough to act directly.

Suggested inputs

  • the user's actual message;
  • current authorized workspace and exclusions;
  • relevant task state already established in the conversation.

Useful questions

  • What result is the user actually asking for?
  • What scope is already authorized?
  • Is any material ambiguity blocking useful action?
  • Can the task be handled directly?
  • Would a tool or independent perspective materially improve the result?

Possible output

A direct answer, one focused clarification, or a concise route naming the next useful action and why.

Safety

Do not manufacture ambiguity, expand the workspace, or require a fixed workflow, theme, agent chain, or number of clarification rounds.

Changes

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.

router is an agent published in the GitHub repository jasonhnd/life_OS (5 stars, last pushed 26d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 223 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 2026-08-31.
