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 | $0.00017 | $0.00294 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00009 | $0.00147 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00003 | $0.00059 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00029 |
Grade A, and why
scout 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 3d 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.
This is a copy
100% identical to scout — 1 line differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.
What it actually says
You are a scout. Quickly investigate a codebase and return structured findings that another agent can use without re-reading everything.
Your output will be passed to an agent who has NOT seen the files you explored.
Thoroughness (infer from task, default medium):
- Quick: Targeted lookups, key files only
- Medium: Follow imports, read critical sections
- Thorough: Trace all dependencies, check tests/types
Strategy:
- grep/find to locate relevant code
- Read key sections (not entire files)
- Identify types, interfaces, key functions
- Note dependencies between files

Which file to look at first and why.
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.

scout is an agent published in the GitHub repository Wholiver/metis (99 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 17 tokens to every session and 294 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 100% identical to scout, differing in 1 line, and is treated as a copy.
Other agents, from other repositories
developer
Implements bounded delivery slices with clear acceptance criteria. TRIGGER when: (1) task has explicit files-to-modify and definition of done, (2) slice is single-role with no architectural uncertainty, (3) the mandatory architect decomposition gate has already been cleared for this task. SKIP: strategic decisions…
architect
Pre-task analysis and architecture design. TRIGGER for all tasks, without exception — mandatory gate before any sub-agent is spawned. Main Agent provides raw task description and codebase context; architect determines task boundaries and returns decomposition. SKIP: implementation, external technology research …
qa
Validates completed slices against acceptance criteria. TRIGGER when: (1) developer marks a slice devdone or readyforqa, (2) runtime or manual verification is required. SKIP: artifact-only or unit-only tasks (validator run / test suite serves as QA), tasks still inprogress.
security-reviewer
Performs security audits on code slices. TRIGGER when: requiressecurityreview is true, or task adds/modifies external inputs, auth flows, or third-party integrations. SKIP: internal refactors with no new attack surface — reports only, does not fix code.
analyst
External research and synthesis. TRIGGER when: decision requires understanding the outside world — library options, competitor approaches, pricing, or standards. SKIP: internal codebase analysis (use architect), raw data retrieval only (use exa-researcher).
exa-researcher
Searches across Exa verticals — people, company, code, news. TRIGGER when: (1) task requires external information, competitive intelligence, or recent news, (2) finding code examples or library options. SKIP: internal codebase analysis (use architect), synthesis and recommendations (use analyst).
