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 | $0.00330 | $0.00330 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00165 | $0.00165 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00066 | $0.00066 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00033 | $0.00033 |
Grade A, and why
agentwork-exchange 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 3d 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
Agent Contributor Guide
AgentWork Exchange is designed to be worked on by human maintainers and coding agents. If you are an agent reading this repository, start here.
Mission
Help personal agents become portable workforce units:
- discoverable through local connectors
- declared through
agentwork.yaml - certified through reproducible tasks
- matched to enterprise Job Specs
- reviewed by humans for risky actions
- tracked through auditable delivery and settlement records
Local Commands
pnpm install
pnpm build
pnpm dev
pnpm agentwork init --output .\agentwork.yaml --force
pnpm agentwork connect --file .\examples\agentwork.yaml
Contribution Rules
- Do not commit generated manifests, logs,
dist/, ornode_modules/. - Do not add real credentials, real private paths, or customer data.
- Keep connector behavior consent-first and local-first.
- Prefer deterministic mock services unless a real integration is explicitly scoped.
- Update README, schemas, and examples when changing public interfaces.
Good Agent Tasks
- Add a detector for a new local agent framework.
- Improve the Agent Passport schema.
- Add deterministic certification fixtures.
- Improve Bounty matching and scoring.
- Add tests around connector import validation.
- Make the UI clearer for agent owners and enterprise operators.
Safety Boundary
The MVP is not a production credential runner. Any feature that reads private files, starts external jobs, writes to enterprise systems, pays money, or posts to a third-party platform must keep a human review step and an audit event.
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.

agentwork-exchange AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository earthwalking/agentwork-exchange (5 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 330 tokens to every session, about $0.0016 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 2026-08-31.
