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 | $0.00398 | $0.00398 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00199 | $0.00199 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00080 | $0.00080 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00040 | $0.00040 |
Grade A, and why
ADD 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
ADD — how to work in this repo
ADD (AI-Driven Development) — you, the AI, drive the build; the human owns direction and verification. Works for any agent (Claude · Cursor · Copilot · Codex) through the CLI alone. Before you touch code, orient:
python3 .add/tooling/add.py status— your resume point; read it first each session..add/PROJECT.md— the thin read-first index (goal ·invariants:· pointers into.add/specs/, the 5-DD standing picture); drill into a spec on demand.python3 .add/tooling/add.py guide— names the current phase + its guide; work ONLY that phase.
Each task drafts the specification bundle (Spec · Contract · Tests & Scenarios) —
ONE human approval at the frozen contract, then a self-driving build→verify run.
Non-negotiable: Never weaken a test or edit a frozen contract to pass a build; a
security finding is always HARD-STOP. PROJECT.md invariants: bind EVERY task — the
artifact must hold under the BARE declared runtime.
Roster (agents/*.md): add-worker runs each beat (direction · build · verify · persona);
add-advisor is the second mind it spawns to plan, pressure-test, or resolve a delegable
ambiguity. Each loads the beat's guide + the best-fit .add/personas/ persona — personas
carry the expertise, the agent carries the discipline.
On Claude Code the add skill drives this loop; other agents follow the three steps.

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.

ADD AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository pilotspace/ADD (19 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 398 tokens to every session, about $0.0020 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.
