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 | $0.00756 | $0.00756 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00378 | $0.00378 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00151 | $0.00151 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00076 | $0.00076 |
Grade A, and why
qimen 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.

Agent Coordination
Swarm Configuration
This project uses hierarchical swarm coordination for complex tasks:
| Setting | Value | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Topology | hierarchical |
Queen-led coordination (anti-drift) |
| Max Agents | 8 | Optimal team size |
| Strategy | specialized |
Clear role boundaries |
| Consensus | raft |
Leader-based consistency |
When to Use Swarms
Invoke swarm for:
- Multi-file changes (3+ files)
- New feature implementation
- Cross-module refactoring
- API changes with tests
- Security-related changes
- Performance optimization
Skip swarm for:
- Single file edits
- Simple bug fixes (1-2 lines)
- Documentation updates
- Configuration changes

File Organization
- NEVER save to root folder
/src- Source code files/tests- Test files/docs- Documentation/config- Configuration files
Quality Rules
- Files under 500 lines
- No hardcoded secrets
- Input validation at boundaries
- Typed interfaces for public APIs
- TDD London School (mock-first) preferred
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.
- 5d ago First seen · 146 lines · 756 tokens per session scan A a97e82b1be01
qimen AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository oceanjustinlin/qimen (22 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 756 tokens to every session, about $0.0038 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.
