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 | $0.00520 | $0.00520 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00260 | $0.00260 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00104 | $0.00104 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00052 | $0.00052 |
Grade A, and why
bd-explore 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 40 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
AGENTS.md - Agent Guide for bd-explore
Project Overview
bd-explore is a zero-dependency CLI tool and MCP server that provides fast, deep full-text and relational search across beads issue stores. It surfaces complete issue prose (descriptions, designs, notes, comments, close reasons, memories) and relational graphs (blocks, parent-child, mentions, GitHub issues).
Agent Guidelines & Rules
Testing Commands
All unit tests run via Python stdlib unittest:
# Run all tests
PYTHONPATH=src python3 -m unittest discover tests -v
# Run individual test files
PYTHONPATH=src python3 -m unittest tests/test_index.py
PYTHONPATH=src python3 -m unittest tests/test_search.py
PYTHONPATH=src python3 -m unittest tests/test_mcp.py
PYTHONPATH=src python3 -m unittest tests/test_installer.py

Code Style Requirements
- Zero runtime dependencies outside Python 3.10+ standard library.
- Type annotations across all public functions and methods.
- Atomic file writes for all configuration files.
- Fenced marker tags (
<!-- BD_EXPLORE_START -->/<!-- BD_EXPLORE_END -->) for agent rule injections.
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.

bd-explore AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository halaprix/bd-explore (0 stars, last pushed 14d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 520 tokens to every session, about $0.0026 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.
