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.

A badge with what this costs and how it scanned, read live from this page, so it follows the numbers instead of freezing them. Markdown for a README, HTML for a documentation site or a project page.

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 | $0.00772 | $0.00772 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00386 | $0.00386 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00154 | $0.00154 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00077 | $0.00077 |
Grade A, and why
paw 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 62 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
paw agents — for Codex CLI and other AI tools
This file tells AI coding tools about paw's agent definitions. If your tool reads AGENTS.md (like OpenAI Codex CLI), it will discover these agents automatically.
How to use
Reference any agent by name in your prompt:
Use the security-reviewer agent to review this branch.
Use the architect agent to design a solution for [task].
Use the code-reviewer, bug-auditor, and security-reviewer on the current diff.
Agent definitions
Each agent is a markdown file in agents/ with frontmatter (name, description, model, tools) and a structured prompt body (role, context, rules, process, done-when).

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.

paw AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository Effulgent-Point/paw (2 stars, last pushed 23d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 772 tokens to every session, about $0.0039 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.
