What is agent-nexus AGENTS.md?

Project instructions for Agent Nexus, a framework for coordinating multiple expert-like coding agents. They point to the core definition and the repository’s agent-persona descriptions.

Use them when contributing to the canoo/agent-nexus repository or following its agent roles and workflow.

They give an agent the project-specific rules and references needed to work within the framework.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00090	$0.00090
Opus 5.5	$0.00036	$0.00036
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00018	$0.00018
Haiku 4.5	$0.00009	$0.00009

Security

Grade A, and why

agent-nexus 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 2mo 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.

Changes

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.
