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 | $0.01589 | $0.01589 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00794 | $0.00794 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00318 | $0.00318 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00159 | $0.00159 |
Grade A, and why
liney 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 — 99 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Project Overview
Liney is a native macOS terminal workspace app built around AppKit + SwiftUI + a vendored Ghostty runtime.
The core product experience centers on a multi-repository sidebar, worktree switching, terminal pane and tab layout restoration, diff and overview helper views, and GitHub and update-related features.
The repository now uses an Xcode project as the primary development entry point. The root still contains release scripts, docs, website code, and local build artifacts.
Repository Layout
Liney/: Main application source root.Liney/App/: App assembly and high-level state orchestration. Start withWorkspaceStore.swift,LineyDesktopApplication.swift, andWorkspaceGitHubCoordinator.swift.Liney/Domain/: Domain models for workspaces, pane layouts, tabs, and related state.Liney/Persistence/: Workspace state, settings persistence, and migrations.Liney/Services/Git/: Git repository inspection, worktree discovery, GitHub CLI integration, and metadata watching.Liney/Services/Process/: Subprocess execution wrappers.Liney/Services/Terminal/: Terminal sessions, Ghostty bridge code, and surface/controller lifecycle management.Liney/Services/Updates/: Sparkle update checks and install flow entry points.Liney/Support/: Menus, commands, path formatting, external editor support, sleep prevention, and shared UI state.Liney/UI/Sidebar/: Left sidebar tree and bridge logic. The key file isWorkspaceSidebarView.swift.Liney/UI/Workspace/: Workspace detail views, pane containers, and terminal pane UI.Liney/UI/Overview/: Repository overview and desk views plus their view model.Liney/UI/Diff/: Diff window state, rendering, and changed-file models.Liney/UI/Canvas/: Global canvas-style UI.Liney/UI/Sheets/: Sheets for creating worktrees, SSH sessions, agent sessions, settings, and related flows.Liney/UI/Components/: Reusable UI components such as the command palette, terminal host, and toolbar icons.Liney/Vendor/: VendoredGhosttyKit.xcframework. Do not modify this without explicit need.Tests/: Unit tests covering git parsing, pane layout, terminal sessions, Ghostty input support, overview, diff, workspace tabs and settings, and related logic.docs/: Maintainer documentation such as testing and terminal architecture notes.scripts/: Local build, signing, release, Sparkle, and Homebrew publishing scripts.website/: Website source, separate from the macOS app project.dist/: Local build artifacts. Usually not edited directly.
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.
