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 | $0.00197 | $0.00197 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00098 | $0.00098 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00039 | $0.00039 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00020 | $0.00020 |
Grade A, and why
pact 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.

Working Defaults
- Source
~/.profilebefore project commands when feasible. - Use Kindex at session start, before important decisions, and at session end.
- Default Pact runs are plan-only: Pact produces decomposition, contracts, and tests; the active Claude or Codex agent implements.
- Use
pact run <project> --implementonly when Pact should own implementation. - If implementation exposes an infeasible contract, stop and reconcile the Pact artifacts instead of silently deviating.
- Use the repository skill at
skills/pact-engineer/SKILL.mdfor substantial plan-first engineering work. - Run focused tests while editing and the full suite before completion.
- Run architecture/done claims past Simulacrum and use
pact reviewfor the Advocate plus Simulacrum post-implementation gate.
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.

pact AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository jmcentire/pact (164 stars, last pushed 12d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 197 tokens to every session, about $0.0010 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.
