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

joint-chiefs CLAUDE.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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 61 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Joint Chiefs

Canonical instruction file. AGENTS.md is a symlink to this file.

Goal: Public MIT-licensed open-source tool. Success = adoption and acquisition value, not revenue. Reliability beats features — prefer minimal correct changes. Don't propose monetization, premium tiers, or scale infrastructure unless asked.

Multi-model AI code review orchestrator. Four surfaces (CLI, stdio MCP server, macOS setup app, keygetter binary) built on one JointChiefsCore engine. Hub-and-spoke debate with Claude as moderator; streams consensus summary. Grounded in MAD research.

Website: https://jointchiefs.ai/ (source: private djfunboy/joint-chiefs-website repo — this repo is the app) Latest release: v0.5.13 — added claude-opus-5 (newest Opus flagship) to the Anthropic picker; claude-fable-5 remains the Anthropic/moderator default. 90+ tests. CFBundleVersion 1777000011. Next session: read the most recent tasks/SESSION-HANDOFF-*.md (gitignored; local-only).

Stack & Architecture

  • Build system: Swift Package Manager. Minimum target macOS 15.0 (Sequoia). Apple Silicon only — no Intel support.
  • Packages: JointChiefsCore (models/providers/orchestrator/credential store/APIKeyResolver), JointChiefsCLI (jointchiefs), JointChiefsMCP (jointchiefs-mcp, stdio), JointChiefsSetup (SwiftUI setup app), JointChiefsKeygetter (jointchiefs-keygetter)
  • MCP dependency: modelcontextprotocol/swift-sdk pinned exact 0.12.0
  • State management: @Observable macro + @State/@Environment/@Bindable. Never mix with ObservableObject.
  • Service pattern: @Environment injection — no singletons.
  • Design system: Agentdeck (monospace-as-identity, warm-charcoal). All colors/fonts/spacing/radii in JointChiefsSetup MUST come from Agentdeck* token files in Sources/JointChiefsSetup/DesignSystem/. Read docs/reference/DESIGN-SYSTEM.md before any UI change. Never hardcode hex or CGFloat.
  • Providers: OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, xAI Grok, Ollama, OpenAI-compatible (LM Studio/Jan/llama.cpp-server/Msty/LocalAI) — all via REST + SSE streaming
  • Storage: StrategyConfig JSON → ~/Library/Application Support/Joint Chiefs/strategy.json (0600); API keys → credentials.json (same dir, 0600) via keygetter only

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.
