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 | $0.01875 | $0.01875 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00750 | $0.00750 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00375 | $0.00375 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00187 | $0.00187 |
Grade A, and why
kmd 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.
This is a copy
100% identical to superpowers AGENTS.md — 150 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 78 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
AGENTS.md — vault-infra
Tooling monorepo for the llm-wiki: the single @bartolli/kmd binary (vault → SQLite FTS5 sync, wiki-mcp stdio server, kmd hook harness gates) plus the per-harness wiki-sdd plugin adapters. The vault is a sibling repo at ../vault/; the system blueprint is ../README.md.
First read
Wiki primer at projects/llm-wiki/primer.md, loaded via the wiki MCP server's prime(scope="llm-wiki") tool. The tool prefix varies by harness and server registration name — discover it from the available tools list at session start. Without MCP tools, kmd prime llm-wiki returns the same briefing.
Wiki integration
WIKI_SCOPE: llm-wikiWIKI_ISSUE_TRACKER: none— slices live inline in story files; nothing mirrors to GitHub issues.WIKI_TRIAGE_LABELS: {"needs-triage":"needs-triage","needs-info":"needs-info","ready-for-agent":"ready-for-agent","ready-for-human":"ready-for-human","wontfix":"wontfix","bug":"bug","enhancement":"enhancement"}
prime(scope=llm-wiki) carries orientation, active ADRs, plan state, and read order. Design rationale lives in wiki ADRs, not this file.
Authoring rules and resync protocol: wiki://authoring (MCP resource) or kmd resource wiki://authoring (CLI, same content).
Wiki-aware skills: /intent, /to-stories, /triage, /to-issues, /tdd, /retro, /handoff. Run /intent to scaffold a new scope or refine intent on an existing one. /wiki is the central hub — invoke it for the full constellation map. /retro grooms the session whenever drift is suspected; /handoff closes it, gated on a retro newer than the primer.
Companion skills for vault file editing: obsidian-markdown (wikilinks/callouts/frontmatter in .md files), obsidian-bases (.base views), obsidian-cli (live-Obsidian-only operations), json-canvas (.canvas files).
Layout
packages/{db,cli,mcp} compose into packages/kmd — the esbuild-bundled npm package, the only published artifact. plugins/src/wiki-sdd is the shared plugin source, laid out as an Agent Plugins 1.0.0 package that Kiro installs as is; plugins/{claude,codex,coco}/wiki-sdd are rendered adapter copies plus per-harness chrome, all authored here ([[adr-plugin-authoring-surface]], [[adr-agent-plugins-package-source]]). TypeScript strict, pnpm workspace, Biome, Vitest, node:sqlite.
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.

kmd AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository bartolli/kmd (7 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 1,875 tokens to every session, about $0.0075 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 100% identical to superpowers AGENTS.md, differing in 150 lines, and is treated as a copy.
