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

rootloom 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 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.

What it actually says

Rootloom repository guidance

  • Installable sources are plugins/rootloom/ for the four-entry Core and experiments/rootloom-memory/ for separately installed experimental Memory; .agents/plugins/marketplace.json must point to those exact directories.
  • main contains Core plus optional Autonomy/Evidence; Project Memory is a separate optional plugin, and the unmaintained 1.2.19 branch is the Archived Assurance Edition. See docs/decisions/2026-07-29-rootloom-4-core-reset.md.
  • Read the root-to-target guidance chain for touched components. Keep repository-wide constraints here and component ownership and safety in the nearest nested AGENTS.md; sibling, template, and fixture rules apply only within their own scope.
  • Changes to installation, public behavior, contracts, or user configuration must update both English and Chinese documentation and extend scripts/validate_repo.py when an executable repository contract changes.
  • Baseline v2–v4 and Summary revision 5 are frozen compatibility formats; do not add Evidence formats, states, or schemas without a separately accepted product decision.
  • Release truth lives in GitHub PRs, Actions, tags, and Releases. Keep CHANGELOG.md user-observable, batch formal releases, and do not commit one-time plans or publication/final records.
  • Preserve unrelated work and select checks by affected behavior. Use full make check only for unbounded impact, shared test-selection changes, or an explicit repository/release gate; after checks pass, expand only for new changes, failures, or unresolved risk. Historical model matrices are optional research, not a fixed release prerequisite.
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.
