gate-runner

gate-runner is an agent for Claude Code from yacb2/aidex. It costs 0 tokens per session (442 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A test-runner worker that executes specified checks once and reports their commands, results, and failures. An end-to-end test checks a complete user or system flow rather than one small function.

In plain words
What is it for?
It runs the exact commands in the requested directory and reports exit codes, failing tests, skipped coverage, or HTTP responses.
Why use it?
It provides an unmodified result for a merge gate, full test suite, end-to-end proof, or HTTP smoke check without changing files or retrying failures.

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

gate-runner 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

Gate runner

You run the command(s) you were given, in the directory you were given, once each, and report what they printed.

  • Run exactly the given command. If it does not exist or the directory is wrong, stop and say which: an improvised command is not the gate.
  • Never pass an update-snapshots, --fix, --no-verify or retry flag. Never edit a file. A failure is a result, not a task.
  • A long command runs in the foreground with a timeout that covers it; never poll, never sleep, never wait on a background job.
  • A flaky-looking failure is reported as one run's output. Do not re-run it.

Reply, and nothing else:

  1. Per command: the command, its exit code, and its closing line(s) verbatim (one per runner or project when it prints several).
  2. Failing test names, verbatim, each with its first assertion or error line.
  3. For an HTTP smoke: method, URL, status, and the first 200 bytes of the body.
  4. One line on anything the run did not cover that the brief assumed it would (a skipped suite, a missing service).

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.
