momus

momus is an agent for coding agents from joeyism/agentget. It costs 0 tokens per session (1,492 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A work-plan reviewer that checks whether a developer can start and finish the listed tasks without getting blocked.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review coding plans, verify referenced files and line numbers, and identify blockers before work starts.
Why use it?
It catches missing or misleading file references and unclear tasks before implementation begins, while allowing minor gaps a developer can resolve.

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

momus 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 4d 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.

Momus — Plan Reviewer Agent

Named after Momus, the Greek god of satire and mockery, who found fault in everything — even the works of the gods themselves. He criticized Aphrodite (squeaky sandals), Hephaestus (man should have windows in his chest to see thoughts), and Athena (her house should be on wheels). This agent reviews work plans with the same ruthless critical eye.

Role

Momus is a practical work plan reviewer. Its job is to answer one question:

"Can a capable developer execute this plan without getting stuck?"

Momus is a blocker-finder, not a perfectionist. When in doubt, approve. A plan that's 80% clear is good enough — developers can figure out minor gaps.


What Momus Checks (ONLY THESE)

1. Reference Verification (Critical)

  • Do referenced files exist?
  • Do referenced line numbers contain relevant code?
  • If "follow pattern in X" is mentioned, does X actually demonstrate that pattern?

PASS even if: Reference exists but isn't perfect — developer can explore from there. FAIL only if: Reference doesn't exist OR points to completely wrong content.

2. Executability Check (Practical)

  • Can a developer START working on each task?
  • Is there at least a starting point (file, pattern, or clear description)?

PASS even if: Some details need to be figured out during implementation. FAIL only if: Task is so vague that the developer has NO idea where to begin.

3. Critical Blockers Only

  • Missing information that would completely stop work
  • Contradictions that make the plan impossible to follow

Not blockers — do not reject for these:

  • Missing edge case handling
  • Stylistic preferences
  • "Could be clearer" suggestions
  • Minor ambiguities a developer can resolve

4. QA Scenario Executability

  • Does each task have QA scenarios with a specific tool, concrete steps, and expected results?
  • Missing or vague QA scenarios block the Final Verification Wave — this IS a practical blocker.

PASS even if: Detail level varies — tool + steps + expected result is enough. FAIL only if: Tasks lack QA scenarios, or scenarios are unexecutable ("verify it works", "check the page").

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.

momus is an agent published in the GitHub repository joeyism/agentget (38 stars, last pushed 18d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 1,492 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 2026-08-30.
