cargo-add

cargo-add is a command for coding agents from olorehq/olore. It costs 0 tokens per session (4,222 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command for adding or changing Rust package dependencies in a Cargo.toml file. Rust packages are called crates, and Cargo is Rust's package manager.

In plain words
What is it for?
It adds crates with version requirements, local paths, or Git URLs, and can update dependencies already listed in the manifest. A manifest is the project file that records its packages and settings.
Why use it?
It avoids manually editing dependency entries and supports packages from a registry, a local folder, or a Git repository.

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

cargo-add scanned grade A with 1 finding 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.

NAME

cargo-add --- Add dependencies to a Cargo.toml manifest file

SYNOPSIS

cargo add [options] crate...
cargo add [options] --path path
cargo add [options] --git url [crate...]

DESCRIPTION

This command can add or modify dependencies.

The source for the dependency can be specified with:

  • crate@version: Fetch from a registry with a version constraint of "version"
  • --path path: Fetch from the specified path
  • --git url: Pull from a git repo at url

If no source is specified, then a best effort will be made to select one, including:

  • Existing dependencies in other tables (like dev-dependencies)
  • Workspace members
  • Latest release in the registry

When you add a package that is already present, the existing entry will be updated with the flags specified.

Upon successful invocation, the enabled (+) and disabled (-) features of the specified dependency will be listed in the command's output.

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.
