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 | $0.00536 | $0.00536 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00268 | $0.00268 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00107 | $0.00107 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00054 | $0.00054 |
Grade A, and why
kodama AGENTS.md 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 50 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Agents
This is the kodama agent pack repository. Kodama is the entrypoint; the kodama- prefixed agents are specialists it delegates to.
Architecture
agents/— self-contained Kiro JSON configs with inline prompts. Each file'snamefield must match its filename stem.skills/— reusable workflow playbooks (Markdown with YAML frontmatter). Referenced by agents viaskill://resource URIs.setup.sh— lifecycle manager: validates, stages, backs up, installs, and uninstalls. All installed files are tracked in a manifest with SHA-256 hashes.examples/project-customization/— shows end users how to extend the pack per-repo.
Agent roster
| Agent | Delegates to | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| kodama | all specialists | Plans, delegates, reconciles, verifies |
| kodama-scout | — | Read-only codebase reconnaissance |
| kodama-scholar | — | External docs and API research |
| kodama-sage | — | Architecture, debugging, tradeoffs |
| kodama-artist | — | UI, UX, accessibility implementation |
| kodama-smith | — | Bounded implementation and tests |
| kodama-critic | — | Independent diff review |
| kodama-forge | — | Infrastructure, CI/CD, deployment |
| kodama-scribe | — | Documentation and technical writing |
Conventions
- Agents use
model: "auto"— no provider lock-in. allowedToolsmust be a subset oftools. Tools outsideallowedToolsrequire user approval.- Resource paths use
__KODAMA_SKILLS_DIR__as a placeholder; the installer resolves it at install time. - Skills use YAML frontmatter with
name(must match directory) anddescription. - The pack never modifies files outside its own manifest (no global MCP, no other agents).
Validation
Run before committing:
./scripts/validate.sh
Checks: installer lifecycle, project-customization tests, shell syntax, agent JSON schema, and skill metadata.
Adding an agent
- Create
agents/<name>.jsonwithname,description,prompt,model,tools,allowedTools, andresources. - Add the name to
AGENT_NAMESinsetup.sh. - Reference any skills via
skill://__KODAMA_SKILLS_DIR__/<skill>/SKILL.md. - Run
./scripts/validate.sh.
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.

kodama AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository amergrgic/kodama (6 stars, last pushed 25d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 536 tokens to every session, about $0.0027 per session on Opus 5. 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 2026-08-31.
