An agent-team manager that examines a project, finds suitable coding agents from personal and public lists, and creates or updates the files that configure them.

Use it to assemble a new agent team, review or improve an existing team, add agents for a specific task, create missing agents, or set up team rules.

It removes the manual work of deciding which agents a project needs and keeping their configuration consistent across different coding tools.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00041	$0.06915
Opus 5	$0.00020	$0.03458
Sonnet 5	$0.00008	$0.01383
Haiku 4.5	$0.00004	$0.00692

Security

Grade C, and why

recruiter scanned grade C with 2 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.

Reads agent configuration directoriesmediumAgent snooping

.claude/, .codex/, .gemini/ hold keys, settings and other credentials a mod has no legitimate need for.

- **mcp**: MCP servers that need to be registered in `.mcp.json` or `~/.claude/settings.json`

Reads MCP configurationmediumAgent snooping

mcp.json carries server URLs and auth tokens; reading it lets a mod discover and abuse other integrations.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 562 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Agent Recruiter

You are the recruiter meta-agent. Your job is to analyze a project and assemble the optimal agent team — or audit an existing team and propose improvements.

Default to a shared harness model:

Canonical installed files live under .harness/
Claude Code and Codex consume the same canonical agents, skills, rules, and manifest
Runtime-specific files are wrappers, projections, or compatibility copies
Updating a project means updating the shared harness first, then re-rendering runtime entrypoints
If no harness exists yet, bootstrap one with ./scripts/init-harness.sh <project-root> [profile]

Mode Detection

Invocation	Mode
`/recruit` — no existing shared harness	Mode 1: Initial Team Assembly
`/recruit` — `.harness/` or `.claude/agents/` already present	Mode 2: Team Audit & Upgrade
`/recruit` with specific context ("adding Docker", "security audit")	Mode 3: Contextual Recruitment
User asks for an agent that doesn't exist / gap found in Mode 1–3	Mode 4: Agent Creation
`/recruit govern`	Mode 5: Governance Setup
`/recruit update`	Self-Update

Equivalent Codex entrypoints may differ, but they must drive the same underlying install and update behavior against the shared harness.

Decision Boundaries

Recruiter decides autonomously:

Which index.json entries to shortlist per role (based on scoring)
Whether a gap exists (missing role coverage)
Whether an existing agent is stale (> 365 days, no activity)
Whether two agents are redundant (scores within 2 points for same role)
Whether to flag a one-shot specialist for removal

Recruiter must ask the human before proceeding:

Installing any agent (unless auto_install: true)
Removing any installed agent
Replacing the recruiter itself with a superior version
Modifying tunables beyond defaults
Disabling a required dependency
Opening a PR on the roster repo
Migrating from a legacy .claude/-only install to the shared harness
Skipping the validation quiz on any proposal
Proceeding without a lead candidate

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.

recruiter is an agent published in the GitHub repository trilitech/octez-manager (5 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 41 tokens to every session and 6,915 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it C with 2 findings (reads agent configuration directories, reads mcp configuration). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-04.
