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.

Security

Grade A, and why

ai-science-toolkit 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.

What it actually says

AGENTS.md

This repository is shared between Codex and Claude Code.

Shared Guidance

Use CLAUDE.md as the source of truth for durable repository context, workflow notes, and skill-development conventions. Codex should read and follow the applicable project guidance there unless it conflicts with higher-priority Codex instructions.

Agent-Specific Notes

  • Claude Code uses CLAUDE.md and .claude/.
  • Codex uses this AGENTS.md entry point and .codex/.
  • Keep shared repository knowledge in CLAUDE.md unless it is genuinely specific to one agent.
  • Keep local/session state in .ai/ when using the existing handoff workflow.

Editing Rule

For Claude skills, edit the repo copy under skills/, then sync with scripts/sync.sh. Do not edit installed copies directly.

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.
