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 5.1 | $0.00514 | $0.00514 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00257 | $0.00257 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00103 | $0.00103 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00051 | $0.00051 |
Grade A, and why
sophia 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 6d 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 55 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Repository Guidelines
Sophia is a Go CLI for intent-first change-request workflow over Git.
Start Here
- Repo map:
docs/index.md - Agent setup:
docs/agent-quickstart.md - First-success walkthrough:
docs/getting-started.md - Daily author loop:
docs/workflow.md - Recovery and stale-state handling:
docs/troubleshooting.md - Policy details:
docs/repository-policy.md
Build And Verify
go run ./cmd/sophia <command>runs the CLI locally.go build ./cmd/sophiabuilds the entrypoint.go test ./...runs the test suite.go vet ./...runs static checks.
Workflow Invariants
- Use Sophia as the primary workflow interface for CRs, tasks, review, and merge state.
- Work on the active CR branch, usually via
sophia cr switch <id>. - Set the CR contract before implementation and set each task contract before
task done. - Use explicit checkpoint scope on
sophia cr task done; prefer--from-contractwhen scope is accurate. - For agent-created checkpoints, always pass
--commit-type <type>. - This repo uses
merge.mode=pr_gate; do not open/sync PRs or push remote state unless explicitly asked. - Delegated child CRs may complete before the parent; the parent remains blocked until child work is resolved.
Codebase Map
internal/cli: Cobra wiring, help text, JSON/text output.internal/service: workflow logic, status/review/merge behavior.internal/gitx: Git integration helpers.internal/store,internal/model: persistence and types.
Coding And Tests
- Format edited Go files with
gofmt. - Keep file names capability-based and identifiers descriptive.
- Add focused Go tests near the code you change.
- Minimum local check before handoff:
go test ./... && go vet ./....
Repo Notes
.sophia/is local-first workflow state and is ignored by Git by default._docs/is local/internal and ignored via.gitignore.- If metadata drifts from Git history, run
sophia repair.
Skills
- Use
$sophiafor Sophia CLI workflow tasks. - Use other installed skills only when the task clearly matches them; the runtime skill registry is the source of truth.
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.

sophia AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository Kevandrew/sophia (20 stars, last pushed 6mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 514 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 2026-08-30.
