helper-generate

helper-generate is a command for coding agents from proticom/gnosys. It costs 0 tokens per session (353 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command that creates a TypeScript helper file for agent scripts to access the memory system directly.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to generate a helper in the current or chosen directory, then import it from an agent script.
Why use it?
It saves you from writing the setup needed for scripts to add and recall memories.

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

helper-generate 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 4d 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

gnosys helper generate

Generate a gnosys-helper.ts file for direct sandbox access from agent scripts.

Usage

gnosys helper generate
gnosys helper generate --directory ./agent
gnosys helper generate --json

Options

Option Description
-d, --directory <dir> Target directory (default: current working directory)
--json Output result as JSON

Behavior

  1. Resolves target directory from --directory or process.cwd().
  2. Calls generateHelper(targetDir) to write the helper file.
  3. Prints usage hints or JSON result.

Human output

Generated: /path/to/gnosys-helper.ts

Usage in your agent/script:
  import { gnosys } from "./gnosys-helper";
  await gnosys.add("We use conventional commits");
  const ctx = await gnosys.recall("auth decisions");

JSON output

Success:

{
  "ok": true,
  "path": "/path/to/gnosys-helper.ts"
}

Failure:

{
  "ok": false,
  "error": "error message"
}

On failure without --json, prints Failed to generate helper: ... to stderr and exits with code 1.

Validation

cd gnosys-public
npm run cli -- helper generate --help
npx vitest run src/test/helper-generate-command-handler.test.ts
  • gnosys sandbox start — start the sandbox the helper connects to.

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.
