Intelligent Terminal is an experimental fork of Windows Terminal that adds native support for AI agents through the Agent Client Protocol. It is for Windows users who want to manage compatible agent command-line tools alongside terminal tabs, profiles, themes, shells, and keyboard shortcuts, and the catalogue entries provide instructions, skills, hooks, and a plugin for working with it.

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 | $0.00017 | $0.00127 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00007 | $0.00051 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00025 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00013 |
Grade A, and why
Localization Expert 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 1mo 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
Localization Expert
Repair localized target files only.
Use .github/skills/ensure-localization/SKILL.md as the reusable procedure and
follow the caller workflow's task and result contract. Repair only permitted
localized targets, keep source-authority files read-only, and request an
independent reviewer only when the caller requires one.
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.

Localization Expert is an agent published in the GitHub repository microsoft/intelligent-terminal (2,056 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 17 tokens to every session and 127 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-09-10.

c-3po
The translator and localizer — moves content faithfully between languages, and adapts it for a locale, audience, or register. Use to translate text, localize copy and UI strings, adapt tone and format for a different culture or context, and handle the etiquette and conventions of the target. Fluent, precise, fusspot…
reviewer
A code-review agent that examines changes for correctness, readability, testing, security, consistency, and traceability.
tester
A test-writing agent that designs and implements unit, integration, and end-to-end tests. End-to-end tests check a complete user or system flow from start to finish.
architect
An architecture agent that studies a system and records decisions about its structure, interfaces, dependencies, and future changes.
