Token cost

What 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.

Security

Grade A, and why

agentforge CLAUDE.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 1mo 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.

Project Overview: agentforge

AI-assisted modern codebase powered by AgentForge

Commands & Environment

  • Build / Compile: npm run build (or equivalent)
  • Run Tests: node test/test.js
  • Package Manager: npm
  • Runtime / Languages: TypeScript, JavaScript

Code Architecture & Philosophy

  • Write minimal, concise, and robust code. Avoid over-engineering (YAGNI).
  • Follow language idioms and leverage the standard library before third-party abstractions.
  • Never compromise on security, input validation, error handling, or accessibility.
  • Maintain existing style, patterns, and architectural conventions across edits.

Architectural Conventions

  • Keep modules focused, decoupled, and single-responsibility.
  • Colocate tests, types, and documentation with the corresponding modules.

Security Standards

  • Never hardcode API keys, secrets, credentials, or private tokens in source code or rules.
  • Sanitize and validate all external inputs, request payloads, and query parameters.

Testing Requirements

  • Ensure all new features, edge cases, and bug fixes have automated test coverage.
  • Keep tests deterministic, isolated, and fast.

Git Commit Standards

  • Follow Conventional Commits format (feat, fix, refactor, docs, chore).
  • Keep pull requests and commits small, atomic, and focused.
Changes

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.
