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 | $0.00399 | $0.00399 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00199 | $0.00199 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00080 | $0.00080 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00040 | $0.00040 |
Grade A, and why
pygraphistry 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 yesterday.
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
AGENTS.md
This file defines AI assistant guidance for this repository.
Skill Locations
Canonical skills live under:
agents/skills/
For tools that expect .agents/skills/, use a local symlink:
ln -s agents .agents
Platform Path Conventions
- OpenAI Codex: prefers
.agents/skills/ - Claude Code: often uses
.claude/skills/ - Other tools (Cursor/Copilot/etc.): may use
.agents/skills/or tool-specific paths
Recommended local setup:
# Canonical -> tool-expected path
ln -s agents .agents
# Claude path to shared skills
mkdir -p .claude
ln -s ../.agents/skills .claude/skills
/.agents/ is ignored in git to keep local tool wiring out of commits.
Guidance Priority
- Follow repository docs and tests as source of truth.
- Keep edits minimal and verifiable.
- Run relevant lint/tests for touched areas.
Release Assistant Reminder
- During publish assistance, after pushing tag
X.Y.Z, always check.github/workflows/publish-pypi.ymlrun state. - Treat
Publish distribution to PyPIinwaitingas an expected manual gate for environmentpypi-release; explicitly instruct maintainer to clickReview deploymentsbefore expecting PyPI completion. - After the workflow completes, verify both TestPyPI and PyPI public metadata report
X.Y.Z; PyPI may lag briefly after the job succeeds. - Create or verify the matching GitHub Release for tag
X.Y.Z, then check Read the Docs.latestmay update automatically, while tag-specific versions can require maintainer activation in the RTD dashboard. - Record release follow-ups discovered during readiness audits as issues in the owning repo before final handoff.
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.

pygraphistry AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository graphistry/pygraphistry (2,551 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed BSD-3-Clause. It adds 399 tokens to every session, about $0.0020 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 2026-08-30.
