ed-validator

ed-validator is an agent for coding agents from NikolasMarkou/epistemic-deconstructor. It costs 56 tokens per session (2,391 once invoked), scanned A, original, GPL-3.0.

A specialist for checking models against data and alternative scenarios, then producing the final analysis report. Validation means testing whether a model works beyond the data used to create it.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to test interpolation, extrapolation, and counterfactuals, diagnose residuals, compare baselines, quantify uncertainty, connect simulations, and generate reports.
Why use it?
It checks for overfitting and other failures by comparing predictions, residual errors, baselines, uncertainty, and domain expectations.

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

ed-validator 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.

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.

ed-validator is an agent published in the GitHub repository NikolasMarkou/epistemic-deconstructor (23 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed GPL-3.0. It adds 56 tokens to every session and 2,391 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 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 2026-08-30.
