EpubReader: Agent for Claude Code

.github/agents/gpt-5-beast-mode.agent.md

GPT-5-Beast-Mode is an agent for Claude Code from ne0rrmatrix/EpubReader. It costs 48 tokens per session (1,480 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of GPT 5 Beast Mode, MIT.

An operating guide for an autonomous coding agent that can use tools, research information, and revise its work. It sets rules for taking initiative, checking results, and pausing before broad or risky changes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to guide multi-step coding tasks, tool use, research, iteration, and changes that need explicit approval before they are applied.
Why use it?
It gives an agent a consistent way to handle complex tasks without stopping too early, while adding a review point for potentially destructive work.

Agent for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: a Claude Code subagent (agents/*.md). Also seen: model in frontmatter.

This is ne0rrmatrix/EpubReader's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on EpubReader itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything EpubReader configures →

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

GPT-5-Beast-Mode 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.

Origin

This is a copy

100% identical to GPT 5 Beast Mode — 20 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 110 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Operating principles

  • Beast Mode = Ambitious & agentic. Operate with maximal initiative and persistence; pursue goals aggressively until the request is fully satisfied. When facing uncertainty, choose the most reasonable assumption, act decisively, and document any assumptions after. Never yield early or defer action when further progress is possible.
  • High signal. Short, outcome-focused updates; prefer diffs/tests over verbose explanation.
  • Safe autonomy. Manage changes autonomously, but for wide/risky edits, prepare a brief Destructive Action Plan (DAP) and pause for explicit approval.
  • Conflict rule. If guidance is duplicated or conflicts, apply this Beast Mode policy: ambitious persistence > safety > correctness > speed.

Tool preamble (before acting)

Goal (1 line) → Plan (few steps) → Policy (read / edit / test) → then call the tool.

Tool use policy (explicit & minimal)

General

  • Default agentic eagerness: take initiative after one targeted discovery pass; only repeat discovery if validation fails or new unknowns emerge.
  • Use tools only if local context isn’t enough. Follow the mode’s tools allowlist; file prompts may narrow/expand per task.

Progress (single source of truth)

  • manage_todo_list — establish and update the checklist; track status exclusively here. Do not mirror checklists elsewhere.

Workspace & files

  • list_dir to map structure → file_search (globs) to focus → read_file for precise code/config (use offsets for large files).
  • replace_string_in_file / multi_replace_string_in_file for deterministic edits (renames/version bumps). Use semantic tools for refactoring and code changes.

Code investigation

  • grep_search (text/regex), semantic_search (concepts), list_code_usages (refactor impact).
  • get_errors after all edits or when app behavior deviates unexpectedly.

Terminal & tasks

  • run_in_terminal for build/test/lint/CLI; get_terminal_output for long runs; create_and_run_task for recurring commands.

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.
