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.

A badge with what this costs and how it scanned, read live from this page, so it follows the numbers instead of freezing them. Markdown for a README, HTML for a documentation site or a project page.

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 | $0.00454 | $0.00454 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00227 | $0.00227 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00091 | $0.00091 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00045 | $0.00045 |
Grade A, and why
Albatross 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 5d 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 Instructions
General
- After finishing code or documentation updates, give the user a git commit message.
- Before pushing to
main, run the CI check suite:
Tests passing alone is not the release bar; clippy withcargo fmt --all -- --check cargo clippy --all-targets -- -D warnings cargo test-D warningsmust pass.
Releases
Updating Cargo.toml, Cargo.lock, README.md, and CHANGELOG.md is not
shipping a release. A version is released only after the vX.Y.Z tag exists,
the GitHub Release workflow succeeds, and macOS assets are published.
Full step-by-step: docs/RELEASE.md
Summary:
- Confirm with the user: land on
mainonly, or ship release X.Y.Z. - Prefer separate commits: feature work first, then
chore: release X.Y.Z. - Push
main, create and push tagvX.Y.Z, watch.github/workflows/release.yml. - Verify:
gh release view vX.Y.Z(release exists, macOS assets present). - Verify Homebrew tap:
morganlinton/homebrew-tap→Formula/albatross.rbmatches the version. Optionally testbrew upgrade albatross.
Do not mark release work complete until step 4 succeeds.
Scorecard (when changing /scorecard or ship quality scoring)
- Distinguish numeric score (0–100) from
counts(increments “quality PRs shipped” on the grid). If manual/scorecard close --url --testsis documented as a quality ship path, add tests thatcountsis true when evidence warrants it — not only that the score looks good. - Manual closes use
opened_by_gh: false; grid logic must align with--urland test evidence unless docs explicitly say manual closes are score-only.
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.
