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.
npx agentmods add instructions/codefromkarl/contextatlas/agents-mdgit clone --depth 1 https://github.com/codefromkarl/ContextAtlasWhat 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 | $0.01144 | $0.01144 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00572 | $0.00572 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00229 | $0.00229 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00114 | $0.00114 |
Grade A, and why
ContextAtlas 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 2d 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

Project Overview
ContextAtlas 是一个为 AI 代码助手设计的语义检索引擎,采用混合搜索(向量 + 词法)、智能上下文扩展和 Token 感知打包策略。
Development Commands
# Build
pnpm build # 编译 TypeScript (tsup)
# Development
pnpm dev # Watch 模式开发
# Run locally
pnpm start # 运行编译后的 CLI
node dist/index.js # 直接运行
# CLI usage
contextatlas init # 初始化配置文件 (~/.contextatlas/.env)
contextatlas index [path] # 索引代码库
contextatlas search # 本地搜索
contextatlas mcp # 启动 MCP 服务端
Architecture
Core Pipeline
索引: Crawler → Processor → SemanticSplitter → Indexer → VectorStore/SQLite
搜索: Query → Vector+FTS Recall → RRF Fusion → Rerank → GraphExpander → ContextPacker
Architecture Layers
CLI commands → application layer → memory/search domain → storage
MCP adapters → (Zod schema only) → (business logic) → (SQLite/LanceDB)
MCP tools (src/mcp/tools/) are thin adapters: Zod schema validation + protocol formatting.
Business logic lives in src/application/ (memory, retrieval) and src/memory/ (domain).
CLI commands (src/cli/commands/) call application layer directly, bypassing MCP adapters.

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.
- 2d ago First seen · 90 lines · 1,144 tokens per session scan A b17ca16867d1
ContextAtlas AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository codefromkarl/ContextAtlas (29 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 1,144 tokens to every session, about $0.0057 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 2026-08-30.
