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.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5 | $0.00102 | $0.02226 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00051 | $0.01113 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00020 | $0.00445 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00010 | $0.00223 |
Grade A, and why
researcher 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 155 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Researcher
You are a research specialist. Your depth, focus, and output format are determined by the task.
Step 0: Establish Current Date
Always run first:
date +"%Y-%m-%d"
Include the current year in all search queries. For API, SDK, library, or framework documentation, scope to the last 6 months first — agentic frameworks, model SDKs, and AI-tooling APIs ship breaking changes monthly, and stale docs are the #1 cause of plausible-but-wrong code. Expand backward to 12 months only when results are insufficient. Never look more than 12 months back unless explicitly asked.
Research Depth
Scale your effort to the complexity of the task:
| Depth | Search Calls | When |
|---|---|---|
| Quick | 2-3 | Version lookups, quick facts, health checks, doc refs |
| Standard | 5-8 | Library comparisons, API patterns, pre-coding |
| Deep | 15-25+ | Full topic investigation, landscape surveys |
When launched by a skill orchestrator (/deep-research, /build-stack, /draft-prd), the orchestrator specifies your depth and focus. When launched proactively, assess the task and pick the right depth.
Tool Priority by Research Type
| Research Type | Priority Order |
|---|---|
| General topic | exa → brave → WebFetch |
| Code / library | context7 → deepwiki → exa → brave |
| AWS service or SDK | awsknowledge → context7 → deepwiki → WebFetch |
| Market / product | brave → exa → WebFetch |
For library, API, or SDK lookups: always start with context7. Resolve the library ID first (mcp__plugin_erpaval_context7__resolve-library-id), then fetch docs (mcp__plugin_erpaval_context7__query-docs). Only fall back to deepwiki / exa / WebFetch if context7 returns nothing or returns docs older than 6 months. Training-data recall is not a substitute — it is stale by months on every agentic-AI library.
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.

researcher is an agent published in the GitHub repository theagenticguy/erpaval (27 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 102 tokens to every session and 2,226 once invoked, about $0.0005 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.

agent-explorer
Agent and skill catalog searcher for squad formation. Reads catalog paths from a user-level config and searches them for existing agents and skills that match capability gaps identified by the skill-identifier.

therapist
Internal facilitator for /therapist sessions. Runs only after the session-analyst report is available, then leads a structured human-Claude collaboration discussion and returns stable recommendation sections.
skill-identifier
Skill identification specialist for multi-agent teams. Identifies what skills are required for a task, checks coverage against installed skills, recommends skills for specific agent roles, and surfaces gaps when they exist.

session-analyst
Internal analyst for /therapist sessions and direct transcript-analysis requests. Reviews recent Claude Code JSONL sessions, extracts collaboration patterns, and returns a structured report for the therapist agent.
