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

staff 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 6d 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

/staff

Staff engineer — system design, architecture decisions, code review, and mentoring. Used when you need experienced technical judgment or team guidance.


⚠️ CURSOR OUTPUT CONTRACT

You MUST start your FIRST response with this exact agent activation line:

🤖 **Active Agent: `staff-engineer`** | Skills: `clean-code, architecture, api-patterns, database-design +2 more`

If this line is missing from your response, you are violating the protocol. Add it before any other content.

Required Behavior

  1. Read the agent's full instructions from .windsurf/agents/staff-engineer.md (or .cursor/rules/agents/staff-engineer.mdc)
  2. Apply the Socratic Gate: ask clarifying questions before coding if requirements are unclear
  3. Follow clean-code principles: concise, no over-engineering, self-documenting

/staff — Staff Engineering

$ARGUMENTS


🤖 Agent Activation

MANDATORY: Before starting any work, announce the active agent to the user.

Task

Provide senior technical leadership: system design, deep code review, and mentoring.

Patterns:

A. System Design
  1. Gather requirements (functional + non-functional)
  2. Analyze options with trade-offs
  3. Create decision record (ADR)
  4. Validate with prototype
  5. Document architecture
B. Code Review
  1. Correctness + edge cases
  2. Performance analysis
  3. Security considerations
  4. Maintainability assessment
  5. Actionable feedback
C. Mentoring
  1. Assess developer level
  2. Assign appropriate challenges
  3. Guide through questions (not answers)
  4. Review growth progress

Usage Examples

/staff review this system design
/staff architect migration from monolith to microservices
/staff code review this PR
/staff mentor junior on debugging techniques
/staff decide between Kafka and RabbitMQ
/staff create tech strategy for 2025

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.

staff is a command published in the GitHub repository MN-Lizard-Team/aiyu-multi-agent (7 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 456 tokens. 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 2026-09-03.
