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 | $0.00204 | $0.00204 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00102 | $0.00102 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00041 | $0.00041 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00020 | $0.00020 |
Grade A, and why
askdb 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.
What it actually says
Agent Guidelines
Environment
- Use pnpm for everything
- Node.js 22+
- Use latest stable versions of all libraries
How to Run
pnpm install
pnpm dev # starts server + vite dev middleware on http://localhost:3100
pnpm build # production build
Requires Docker running for sandbox containers.
Project Structure
server/ → Express API + MCP server (src/index.ts)
ui/ → React dashboard (Vite + TypeScript)
packages/
shared/ → DB schema (Drizzle/SQLite), adapters, sync logic, memory system
mcp-server/ → MCP protocol tools
cli/ → CLI entry point
Code Style
- Comments explain why, not what
- Don't add comments on self-explaining code
- Follow existing patterns in the codebase
- Keep it concise — no boilerplate, no over-abstraction
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.

askdb AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository mgorabbani/askdb (73 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 204 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.
