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.
npx agentmods add instructions/mandarons/icloud-docker/agents-mdgit clone --depth 1 https://github.com/mandarons/icloud-dockerWhat 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 | $0.01047 | $0.01047 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00524 | $0.00524 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00209 | $0.00209 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00105 | $0.00105 |
Grade A, and why
icloud-docker 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 3d 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 — 77 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
iCloud Docker
A containerized iCloud sync client that periodically downloads files from Apple iCloud Drive and iCloud Photos to a local filesystem. Runs as a long-running Docker service with an optional Flask web UI for monitoring and 2FA re-authentication.
Quick Reference
- Language: Python 3.10
- Framework: Flask (web UI), iCloudPy (iCloud API)
- Package manager: pip
Commands
| Task | Command |
|---|---|
| Install dependencies | pip install -r requirements-test.txt |
| Run tests | ENV_CONFIG_FILE_PATH=./tests/data/test_config.yaml pytest |
| Run linter | ruff check |
| Run formatter | ruff format |
| Run full CI pipeline | ./run-ci.sh |
| Security scan | bandit --quiet --format=custom --configfile=tests/bandit.yaml src/ tests/ |
| Docker build | docker build -t mandarons/icloud-drive . |
Always run the full CI pipeline (./run-ci.sh) before declaring work complete.
Architecture Overview
The system is a single-process Python application with two concurrent activities: a sync loop (main thread) and an optional Flask web UI (daemon thread). The sync loop authenticates with iCloud, then alternates between Drive and Photos sync based on adaptive countdown timers. Configuration is YAML-based with environment variable overrides, reloaded on every sync iteration. The codebase follows SRP — monolithic modules have been split into focused helpers (8 for Drive, 7 for Photos).
See docs/index.md for the full architecture document.
Key Conventions
- NEVER use direct dict access for config — always use
config_parser.get_*()functions viatraverse_config_path() - Every
src/*.pymust have a mirrortests/test_*.py— 100% test coverage is enforced (--cov-fail-under=100) - Use
LOGGER = get_logger()at module level — never instantiate loggers inline - Normalize all file paths with
unicodedata.normalize("NFC", path)for macOS/Windows compatibility
See docs/standards/ for detailed coding and testing standards.
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.

icloud-docker AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository mandarons/icloud-docker (1,872 stars, last pushed 5d ago), licensed BSD-3-Clause. It adds 1,047 tokens to every session, about $0.0052 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.
