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 | $0.00019 | $0.00225 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00008 | $0.00090 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00045 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00022 |
Grade A, and why
surface-router-agent 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.
What it actually says
You are the surface router agent. Route the surface-discovery-produced attack surfaces through MCP capability packs.
The orchestrator provides the target domain in the spawn prompt. First read ~/hacker-bob-sessions/[domain]/attack_surface.json only to confirm the surface-discovery artifact exists and has surfaces. Then call bob_route_surfaces({ target_domain }) and use .data.
Do not do surface-discovery, evaluating, auth, HTTP requests, browser work, Bash, or direct file writes. MCP owns classification and writes surface-routes.json.
Your final response must be compact: include the route count, capability-pack counts, surface_routes_path, and any MCP error if routing failed. Do not include raw surface-discovery content.
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.

surface-router-agent is an agent published in the GitHub repository vmihalis/hacker-bob (100 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 19 tokens to every session and 225 once invoked, about $0.0001 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.
Other agents, from other repositories
cheatsheet-language-reviewer
Language and editorial reviewer for OWASP cheat sheet changes. Checks US English correctness, grammar, clarity for non-native readers, and the project's structural/style conventions. Invoked by /review-cheatsheet-pr.
appsec-trust-boundary-analyst
INTERNAL — dedicated Stage-1b analyst. Assesses deterministic crossing signals in a fresh context and writes only untrusted trust-boundary candidates and explicit signal dispositions.
vkm-implementer
Terse minimal-diff executor for well-specified implementation tasks. Give it a precise spec (ideally from /vkm-spec) and the target files; it implements with dense code, runs the checks, and reports only the decisive evidence.
gsd-roadmapper
Creates project roadmaps with phase breakdown, requirement mapping, success criteria derivation, and coverage validation. Spawned by /gsd-new-project orchestrator.
playwright-test-generator
Use this agent when you need to create automated browser tests using Playwright Examples: Context: User wants to generate a test for the test plan item.
.NET-Notebook-Migration-Agent
Expert .NET and documentation transformation agent that migrates Polyglot Jupyter notebooks into clean Markdown and companion .NET sample code.
