What is Template-PSModule AGENTS.md?

A contributor guide for Template-PSModule, a template for creating PowerShell modules, reusable packages of PowerShell commands. It links to the repository, framework, and organization-wide rules for development and collaboration.

Use it when creating or maintaining a module from this template, following PSModule conventions, or working on its build and release process. It points to the quickstart, module anatomy, standards, and organization memory.

It helps agents understand which guidance applies to module structure, coding style, builds, tests, packaging, publishing, and contribution workflow. It also makes clear where to report larger improvements instead of making broad changes.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5	$0.00441	$0.00441
Opus 5	$0.00220	$0.00220
Sonnet 5	$0.00088	$0.00088

Security

Grade A, and why

Template-PSModule 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.

Main directive

Everything is a work in progress and can be improved. If you find a problem or improvement, fix if small; otherwise open an issue.

Repo guidance

README.md — what this repository is and its purpose as a template.
CONTRIBUTING.md — how to contribute to this repository.

PSModule Framework guidance

Regarding repo structure, module source code and how the Process-PSModule workflow works. For PSModule-specific build, layout, and process guidance:

Template quickstart — how to create a new module from this template.
Repository defaults — the expected repository layout and required files.
Module anatomy — source layout and framework conventions.
Build, test, pack, publish — the CI/CD pipeline.
Standards — PowerShell module coding standards.
PSModule/memory — durable cross-session agent working memory for the PSModule organization.

Org-wide guidance

For cross-cutting ways of working and standards:

Agentic Development — how agents and humans collaborate in this ecosystem.
Ways of Working — contribution workflow, branching, PRs, issues.
Coding Standards — language-level conventions.
MSXOrg/memory — durable agent working memory: gotchas, knowledge, and agent role notes.

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.
