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.

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 | $0.00653 | $0.00653 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00327 | $0.00327 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00131 | $0.00131 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00065 | $0.00065 |
Grade A, and why
linctl 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
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 47 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
AGENTS.md
Purpose
Ship safe, small, tested changes to linctl with docs that match behavior.
Operating Rules
- Keep patches minimal and focused; avoid drive-by refactors.
- Prefer
rg/go test/existing scripts; do not invent parallel tooling. - Never rewrite user-authored history (
reset --hard, force-push) unless explicitly requested. - If behavior changes, update docs in the same PR (
README.md,SKILL.md, as needed). - If a change updates release versioning, do not consider it complete until Homebrew tap bump status and Nix installability are verified.
Quality Bar
- Run:
go test ./...before finalizing code changes. - For CLI flag/command changes, add or update command tests in
cmd/*_test.go. - For GraphQL query/mutation changes, add or update API tests in
pkg/api/*_test.go. - If tests are skipped, state exactly what was skipped and why.
Docs Freshness
- Treat
master_api_ref.mdas drift-prone; verify against current official Linear docs before editing claims (auth, scopes, rate limits, headers, deprecations).- When you identify drift around your feature area, edit
master_api_ref.mdin the same PR as your feature.
- When you identify drift around your feature area, edit
- Prefer exact terms from upstream docs; avoid hardcoded limits unless sourced.
- Keep examples runnable with current CLI.

Release + Package Managers (Owners Only)
- Owners cut releases from
masterusing semver tagsvX.Y.Z. - Required for auto Homebrew bump: repo secret
HOMEBREW_TAP_TOKEN(write access todorkitude/homebrew-linctl). - Version bump policy: release/version bumps must include Homebrew and Nix verification in the same workstream.
- Homebrew verification means auto workflow success plus merged tap PR, or a merged manual tap bump PR.
- Nix verification means the flake builds from the release tag, or the blocker is explicitly documented when Nix is unavailable in the release environment.
- Flow:
git push origin mastergit tag -a vX.Y.Z -m "vX.Y.Z: <summary>" && git push origin vX.Y.Zgh release create vX.Y.Z --title "linctl vX.Y.Z" --notes "..."- Verify
Bump Homebrew Tapworkflow succeeds. - Merge bump PR in
dorkitude/homebrew-linctl(close stale bump PRs). - Confirm formula points to new tag+sha and
brew upgrade linctlresolves. - Confirm Nix installability from the tag:
nix build github:dorkitude/linctl/vX.Y.Znix profile install github:dorkitude/linctl/vX.Y.Zlinctl --version
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.

linctl AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository dorkitude/linctl (145 stars, last pushed 9d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 653 tokens to every session, about $0.0033 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.
