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 | $0.01902 | $0.01902 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00951 | $0.00951 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00380 | $0.00380 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00190 | $0.00190 |
Grade A, and why
cli AGENTS.md scanned grade A with 1 finding 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.
Makes network callslowCapability
Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

Essential guidance for AI coding agents working in the Render CLI.
Project Overview
What: Terminal interface for Render platform (Go + Bubble Tea TUI) Why: Manage deployments, services, logs, and infrastructure from the command line
Before You Code
- Search existing code for similar implementations
- Follow established patterns in
pkg/tui/ - Check if types exist in
pkg/client/before defining new ones
Boundaries
Never do (without explicit approval):
- Edit files in
pkg/client/(generated code) - Modify
*_gen.gofiles - Remove existing tests
- Change navigation stack architecture in
pkg/tui/stack.go
Always ask first:
- Major TUI architectural changes
- Adding new dependencies
- Changes to command flag APIs (breaking changes)
Safe to do:
- Add new views in
pkg/tui/views/ - Add new commands in
cmd/ - Write tests anywhere
- Refactor within a single package
When Uncertain
- Requirements unclear: Ask before implementing
- Architecture questions: Propose minimal approach, get feedback
- TUI interactions: Describe intended flow, get confirmation
Prefer small, incremental changes over large speculative implementations.
Essential Commands
# Building
go build -o render . # Build binary
# Testing
go test ./cmd/... ./pkg/... ./internal/... # Default development loop
go test <package> -run '<test-name-or-regex>' # Focused test pattern
# Linting & Formatting
golangci-lint run # Lint
prek run --all-files # All hooks (see prek.toml)
# Type Generation (from public-api-schema)
export RENDER_API_PATH=/path/to/api
cd ../public-api-schema && ./generate-cli.sh

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.

cli AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository render-oss/cli (112 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 1,902 tokens to every session, about $0.0095 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
