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 | $0.00222 | $0.00222 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00111 | $0.00111 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00044 | $0.00044 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00022 | $0.00022 |
Grade A, and why
dev-like 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 yesterday.
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.
What it actually says
dev-like — agent context
- This repo is simultaneously: an Agent Skill (
skills/dev-like/), a Claude Code plugin + marketplace (.claude-plugin/), an npm package (dev-like, CLI inbin/), and a data registry (registry/). - Zero runtime dependencies is a feature. Adding a dep requires explicit justification.
- Registry invariants are enforced by
scripts/validate.mjs— run it after touchingskills/orregistry/. Persons require consent tierstatedor better. - Provenance is non-negotiable: no claim without a source URL, in profiles and in generated skills.
- Design for deletion: nothing outside
registry/<slug>/andregistry/index.jsonmay reference a registry slug. docs/solutions/— documented solutions to past problems (release pipeline, git workflows, best practices), organized by category with YAML frontmatter (module,tags,problem_type). Relevant when working in a documented area.
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.

dev-like AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository marcusrbrown/dev-like (2 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 222 tokens to every session, about $0.0011 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 2026-08-31.
