gpd-explainer

gpd-explainer is an agent for Claude Code from psi-oss/get-physics-done. It costs 40 tokens per session (1,960 once invoked), scanned A, original, no licence file.

A physics explainer that clarifies concepts, methods, symbols, or research papers in the context of your project, with links to selected references.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to understand unfamiliar physics, mathematical notation, research methods, or papers while working on a project.
Why use it?
It helps when a physics idea or paper is difficult to understand in isolation. The explanations stay tied to your project and point to sources you can read.

Agent for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: a Claude Code subagent (agents/*.md).

Good fit Use it to understand unfamiliar physics, mathematical notation, research methods, or papers while working on a project.

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

gpd-explainer 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.

A licence we could not identify

The repository carries a LICENSE file, but it is custom or dual enough that GitHub cannot name it and neither can this catalogue. Unknown terms are not permission, so the body is not copied here. Read the licence at the source and decide for yourself.

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.

gpd-explainer is an agent published in the GitHub repository psi-oss/get-physics-done (971 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), with no licence file. It adds 40 tokens to every session and 1,960 once invoked, about $0.0002 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 2026-08-30.
