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

empir3-bridge 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 8d 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.

Empir3 Bridge — Agent & Contributor Guide

This is the standalone Empir3 Bridge repo: the local control plane that exposes browser and desktop tools to AI agents over MCP, plus the Windows tray/daemon and the signed payload + installer release pipeline.

What lives here

  • The localhost:3006 dashboard, the /welcome console, and /desktop-test
  • The MCP server (browser + desktop tools) and the scriptable CLI
  • The CDP bridge that drives the dedicated Chrome profile
  • The tray app, daemon reconnect/quit/port-cleanup, and the Windows payload + installer build

Before you edit

git status --short --branch
git pull --ff-only        # only when the tree is clean

If the tree is dirty, identify the dirty files before editing — parallel sessions may have uncommitted work in progress. Stage exact files only; never use git add -A / git add . / git commit -a.

Run locally

npm install
npm start                 # launches the bridge; dashboard at http://localhost:3006

Useful checks:

npm run build:mcp         # bundle the MCP server
npx tsc --noEmit          # typecheck
npm test

Release / publish

Before changing a version, signing a package, publishing downloads, exporting public source, creating a GitHub Release, or publishing npm, private maintainers must read docs/internal/RELEASE_OPERATIONS.md when that file is present. It is the canonical operator contract and is intentionally omitted from public exports. If this is a public snapshot and the internal runbook is absent, use docs/RELEASE.md for local/test builds but do not infer private release access.

package.json is the version source of truth. Bump it, then:

npm run build:windows     # Empir3Setup.exe + signed payload under build/dist/
npm run release:check     # verify the artifacts
npm run publish:downloads -- --dry-run
npm run publish:downloads # set EMPIR3_DOWNLOAD_HOST / EMPIR3_DOWNLOAD_DIR first

The deploy target is read from the environment, not hardcoded — see docs/RELEASE.md for the full flow, and docs/SAFETY.md / docs/TESTING.md for the safety model and test harness.

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.
