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 | $0.06856 | $0.06856 |
| Opus 5 | $0.03428 | $0.03428 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.01371 | $0.01371 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00686 | $0.00686 |
Grade B, and why
optio CLAUDE.md scanned grade B with 1 finding 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.
Asks for rootmediumPrivilege escalation
A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

Context and conventions for AI assistants working on the Optio codebase.
What is Optio?
Optio is an orchestration system for AI coding agents. Think of it as "CI/CD where the build step is an AI agent." One primary user-facing concept (Tasks) with one attribute (has a repo) flipping the pipeline, plus shared primitives:
Tasks — a configured unit of agent work. A Task has a Who (agent type), What (prompt or template), When (trigger: manual / schedule / webhook / ticket), optional Where (repo + branch), and Why (description). Tasks come in three flavors:
-
Repo Task —
Whereis set. The agent clones the repo into a worktree and opens a PR:- Spins up an isolated Kubernetes pod for the repository (pod-per-repo)
- Creates a git worktree for the task (multiple run concurrently per repo)
- Runs Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, GitHub Copilot, Google Gemini, OpenCode, or Cursor with the prompt
- Streams structured logs back to a web UI in real time
- Agent stops after opening a PR (no CI blocking)
- PR watcher tracks CI checks, review status, and merge state
- Auto-triggers code review agent on CI pass or PR open (if enabled)
- Auto-resumes agent when reviewer requests changes (if enabled)
- Auto-completes on merge, auto-fails on close
Supported git platforms: GitHub, GitLab (incl. self-hosted via
GITLAB_HOSTS), and AWS CodeCommit. CodeCommit auths via AWS access keys (or IRSA / instance profile when running on EKS) and uses the AWS CLI credential helper for clones; PR ops go through@aws-sdk/client-codecommit. CodeCommit has no native CI or issues —getCIChecksreturns[](auto-merge still fires onchecksStatus="none"),listIssuesreturns[], andreviewTrigger="on_pr"is recommended over the defaulton_ci_passfor CodeCommit repos. -
Standalone Task — no
Where. The agent runs in an isolated pod with no repo checkout, producing logs and side effects (e.g., queries Slack, posts to a database). Scheduled/webhook-driven runs of this flavor are the common case.
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.

optio CLAUDE.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository jonwiggins/optio (1,043 stars, last pushed 22d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 6,856 tokens to every session, about $0.0343 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it B with 1 finding (asks for root). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
