scout

An agent that explores an existing codebase and reports how its files, dependencies, conventions, and data flows fit together. A monorepo is one repository containing multiple related projects, which it can also navigate.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to understand a new codebase, find relevant files, trace code flow, identify the technology stack, and locate integration points before making changes.
Why use it?
It reduces the time spent searching through unfamiliar projects and helps locate the code that needs to change. It also points out connections such as API endpoints, event handlers, hooks, and shared modules.

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.

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

scout 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.

Monorepo Scout Strategy

  1. Check root configturbo.json, nx.json, pnpm-workspace.yaml
  2. List workspacespnpm ls or nx show projects
  3. Find shared packages → Check packages/ or libs/
  4. Trace dependencies → Package.json of each app
  5. Identify boundaries → What imports what?

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.

scout is an agent published in the GitHub repository nth5693/gemini-kit (375 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 13 tokens to every session and 1,333 once invoked, about $0.0001 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.
