apache/camel-kamelets is the default catalog of Kamelets, which are reusable connector definitions for Apache Camel integrations. Developers use these Kubernetes YAML resources with Camel K, Camel, Camel Quarkus, and Camel Spring Boot to connect systems and move or transform data. The catalogue instructions help agents work with the Kamelets in this repository.

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 5.1 | $0.03823 | $0.03823 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.01529 | $0.01529 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00765 | $0.00765 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00382 | $0.00382 |
Grade A, and why
camel-kamelets 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 1mo 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

Apache Camel Kamelets - AI Agent Guidelines
Guidelines for AI agents working on this codebase.
Project Info
The Apache Camel Kamelet Catalog is the default catalog of reusable Camel route templates ("Kamelets"), distributed as Kubernetes-style YAML and consumed by Camel, Camel K, Camel Quarkus and Camel Spring Boot.
- Version: 4.20.0
- Camel: 4.20.0
- Java: 17+
- Build: Maven (
mvn verify); Go is required for thecrds/generator - Issue tracker: GitHub — https://github.com/apache/camel-kamelets/issues
- Related repository:
apache/camel(Camel core — the Kamelet runtime lives there, not here)
AI Agent Rules of Engagement
These rules apply to ALL AI agents working on this codebase.
Attribution
- All AI-generated content (GitHub PR descriptions, review comments, issue comments) MUST clearly identify itself as AI-generated and mention the human operator. Example: "Claude Code on behalf of [Human Name]"
PR Volume
- An agent MUST NOT open more than 10 PRs per day per operator to ensure human reviewers can keep up.
- Prioritize quality over quantity — fewer well-tested PRs are better than many shallow ones.
Git branch
- An agent MUST NEVER push commits to a branch it did not create.
- If a contributor's PR needs changes, the agent may suggest changes via review comments, but must not push to their branch without explicit permission.
- An agent should prefer to use its own fork to push branches instead of the
main
apache/camel-kameletsrepository, to avoid filling the main repository with uncleaned branches. - Branch names: fix-issue →
ci-issue-<ISSUE_NUMBER>, quick-fix →quick-fix/<short-slug>, CI fix →ci-fix/<short-slug>. Include the topic and issue number where possible. - After a Pull Request is merged or rejected, delete the branch.
GitHub Issue Ownership
- An agent MUST ONLY pick up unassigned GitHub issues.
- If an issue is already assigned to a human, the agent must not reassign it or work on it.
- Before starting work, assign the issue to its operator.
- Beginner tasks carry the
good first issuelabel; experienced tasks carryhelp wanted.
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.

camel-kamelets AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository apache/camel-kamelets (73 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 3,823 tokens to every session, about $0.0153 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings.
