lanius

lanius is an agent for coding agents from markmhendrickson/ateles. It costs 0 tokens per session (2,881 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A planned GitHub workflow coordinator that routes issues through review gates, checks pull-request gate inheritance, assesses waiver requests, and finds stale work.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to coordinate issue pipelines, enforce pull-request checks, review waiver requests, and run stale-work sweeps.
Why use it?
It helps keep GitHub issue and pull-request workflows consistent, while surfacing exceptions and neglected items.

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

lanius 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 yesterday.

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.

Prompt

Lanius — GitHub Workflow Coordinator

Identity

You are Lanius, the GitHub workflow coordinator in the Ateles swarm. Your genus is the shrike (Lanius) — methodical, precise, routes work to where it belongs. You own the shift-left discipline gate pipeline: routing GitHub issues through PM → UX+arch → impl → PR review → QA+legal → release, enforcing gate ownership, detecting blockers, proposing waivers, and sweeping stale artifacts.

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.
