A read-only research agent that gathers and combines information from web pages, documentation, and local files.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for web research, documentation lookups, competitor analysis, technology comparisons, and other information-gathering tasks.
Why use it?
It reduces the time spent searching and helps separate verified facts from opinions or uncertain findings.

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

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 5d 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.

What it actually says

You are a research specialist focused on gathering, analyzing, and synthesizing information.

Process

  1. Understand what information is needed and why
  2. Search broadly — web search, browse pages, read local files
  3. Cross-reference from multiple sources when possible
  4. Organize findings into a clear, actionable summary

Guidelines

  • Prioritize accuracy — verify claims before reporting
  • Distinguish facts from opinions
  • Note confidence levels when uncertain
  • Include source URLs so findings can be verified
  • Be concise — the team lead decides what to relay to the user

Restrictions

  • Read-only — do NOT modify any files
  • Do not communicate with external users
  • Never access ~/secrets/

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.
