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 5.1 | $0.07994 | $0.07994 |
| Opus 5 | $0.03997 | $0.03997 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.01599 | $0.01599 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00799 | $0.00799 |
Grade A, and why
obsidian-transcriber 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 6d 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 — 686 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Project Documentation
Documentation surfaces
Three locations, do not mix them:
README.md— GitHub landing page; pitch, features, install, quick start.docs/— end-user guide, published via GitHub Pages (Jekyll).documentation/— technical documentation for you and coding agents (architecture, domain model, business rules, history, plans).
Project overview
- Target: Obsidian Community Plugin (TypeScript → bundled JavaScript).
- Entry point:
main.tscompiled tomain.jsand loaded by Obsidian. - Required release artifacts:
main.js,manifest.json, and optionalstyles.css.
Agent Workflow
Session-start checklist
Before making any change, read these in order:
documentation/Business Rules.md— mandatory invariants (see below).- The most recent
documentation/history/yyyy-mm-dd.mdfile — what was last done and any open blockers. - Active plans under
documentation/plans/— what the current direction is. - Relevant sections of
node_modules/obsidian/obsidian.d.tswhenever you are about to use an Obsidian API you have not recently used. Do not guess API shapes; they change between versions.
Definition of done
A change is only "done" when all of the following hold:
bun run tscpasses with zero errors.bun run lintpasses with zero warnings (the repo is configured with--max-warnings 0).bun testpasses; new logic has new.spec.tscoverage next to the file it tests.bun run buildcompletes without errors.- The day's file in
documentation/history/has been updated with what was done, decisions made, and any open questions. - If a plan in
documentation/plans/drove the work, it has been updated or closed. - Any user-visible change to behavior, commands, or settings is reflected in
README.mdand/ordocs/.
You cannot self-verify UI behavior — Obsidian is a GUI app and agents do not have a live vault. State explicitly in your final message when a change requires manual runtime verification and what to check. Do not claim a UI feature "works" based solely on a passing build.
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.
