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.

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

sq 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 359 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

AGENTS.md

Guidance for AI coding assistants (Claude Code, Copilot, Cursor, Codex, etc.) and human contributors working in this repo.

CLAUDE.md is the Claude Code entry point; it points here for all shared rules.

[!IMPORTANT] Before making a significant change, review docs/README.md and the contributor docs it links to (architecture, drivers, grammar, workflows, Sakila, releasing). Read the ones relevant to your task before you start, and if your change makes any of them inaccurate, update them in the same change.

About sq

sq is a command-line data wrangler providing jq-style access to structured data sources (SQL databases like Postgres, MySQL, SQLite, SQL Server, ClickHouse, Oracle, DuckDB; and document formats like CSV, JSON, Excel). User docs live at sq.io.

Key documents

Before making non-trivial changes, read the document most relevant to your task:

  • README.md: project overview and user-facing intro.
  • CONTRIBUTING.md: full contributor guide (tooling, Makefile usage, driver implementation patterns, test handles, CHANGELOG.md format).
  • docs/README.md: index of the contributor docs under docs/.
  • docs/ARCHITECTURE.md: Mermaid ERD of core types (Source, Driver, Grip, Registry, RecordWriter, etc.).
  • docs/DRIVERS.md: driver development guide (package structure, type mapping, the driver ship checklist).
  • docs/GRAMMAR.md: SLQ query language grammar guide (companion to grammar/SLQ.g4).
  • docs/WORKFLOW.md: development and CI workflows (local Makefile loop and the GitHub Actions pipelines).
  • docs/SAKILA.md: the Sakila test dataset (sakiladb images, embedded vs external sources, engine matrix, repo-wide usage).
  • sq.io: end-user documentation for commands and query syntax.

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.
