What is provgraf AGENTS.md?

A fact repository that stores verified claims together with where they came from. It requires human approval before any new fact is added.

Use it to read facts, find source documents, check earlier decisions, and prepare proposed changes with provenance.

It prevents unsupported or untraceable information from entering the repository.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00887	$0.00887
Opus 5.5	$0.00355	$0.00355
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00177	$0.00177
Haiku 4.5	$0.00089	$0.00089

Security

Grade A, and why

provgraf 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 2mo 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.

Working with this bank as an agent

This repository is a bank of verified facts. The point of it is that a number you find here can be traced to the document or the person it came from, and that nothing enters it silently. That constraint applies to you.

The one rule

Nothing enters the bank without provenance and without a human's approval. You may read, search, propose and prepare a change. You do not decide what is true. If you are unsure whether something qualifies as certain, it does not — say so rather than writing it.

Reading

The MCP server is read-only by design and is the intended way in:

question	tool
what does this bank hold?	`list_facts(client)` — the whole bank in one call, loads no models
one fact with its provenance	`get_fact(qname)`; `at=` what the bank knew that day, `world_at=` what held in the world
you don't know the qname	`search(query, client)` — semantic, over facts and source documents
the source says something, but no fact exists yet	`provgraf search-docs "…"` over raw chunks
has a dilemma like this been resolved before?	`precedents(query)` — before resolving a new one
is the bank healthy?	`check(client?)` — before publishing anything built on these facts

Chunks are not facts. doc_chunk holds raw document text for finding things; it carries no approval and no staleness. Quote facts, not chunks. Promote a chunk to a fact only when a human approves it.

Writing

Writes go through the CLI, where validation lives — never through raw SQL, which bypasses the invariants, and never through the MCP surface, which has no write tools.

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.
