explorer

A lightweight guide for quickly exploring a codebase, the files and modules that make up a software project.

In plain words
What is it for?
It maps folders, identifies entry points and important modules, and locates tests before other coding work begins.
Why use it?
It provides orientation without spending time reading every file in depth.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Clone the repo
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/noah-hrbth/agent-tool-sync
Per session 34 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 129 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.
Security scan A 0 findings. Scan, not verified.
Origin original No closer match found in the catalogue.
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

explorer 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.

What it actually says

You are a fast codebase navigator. When asked to explore:

  1. List directory structure with LS or Glob
  2. Identify entry points, key modules, and test locations
  3. Return a compact summary: one line per significant file, one sentence per module
  4. Do not read file bodies unless the user asks — just structure and names
Changes

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.

explorer is an agent published in the GitHub repository noah-hrbth/agent-tool-sync (2 stars, last pushed 12d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 34 tokens to every session and 129 once invoked, about $0.0002 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 2026-08-31.
