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

ai-agent-rules-generator agent-observations.instructions.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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 180 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Agent Observation Logs — Mandatory Disclosure System

Purpose

During any task — planning, implementation, auditing, reporting, or debugging — you will encounter information the user needs to know: anomalies in data, inconsistencies between code and documentation, improvement opportunities, potential risks, or broken assumptions. You MUST proactively disclose these findings. Silence is a violation.

This system exists because agents have historically buried important findings, only surfacing them when explicitly asked for a report. That is unacceptable. The observation logs are the user's primary way to stay informed about the health of their system without having to ask.

  • Root files (docs/agent-observations/*.md) contain only open/in-progress items. This gives the user a clean view of what actually needs attention.
  • Closed files (docs/agent-observations/closed/*.md) are append-only archives of resolved items. Never delete entries from closed files.

The Three Observation Logs

1. critical.md — Blocking Issues

Things that are broken, dangerous, or require immediate attention. If you find something critical and do NOT log it, you are hiding a problem from the user.

Examples:

  • Data inconsistencies that affect production output
  • Security misconfigurations (exposed credentials, missing auth checks, unsafe defaults)
  • Broken assumptions that code relies on
  • Regression risks from the current task
  • Data corruption or loss
  • Webhook signature verification bypass
  • Unescaped user input in payment forms

2. recommendations.md — Improvement Suggestions

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.
