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 | $0.24407 | $0.24407 |
| Opus 5 | $0.12204 | $0.12204 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.04881 | $0.04881 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.02441 | $0.02441 |
Grade A, and why
timps 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 yesterday.
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.

Expected in a hook, worth knowing in a rule or an instructions file.
- **Scanner rejects on `eval`, `Function()`, `child_process`, undeclared network/fs access, oversized packages** — not just warnings This is a copy
100% identical to timps AGENTS.md — 0 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 1,277 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
AGENTS.md — TIMPS Codebase Guide
Canonical instruction doc for AI agents (OpenCode, Copilot, Claude, Cursor). If this conflicts with the README, trust this file.

npm run build— turbo run build (all packages; mobile/plugins/docs may need extra tooling).npm run build:ci— CI-targeted build that excludes 10 packages (mobile, plugins, docs, timps-code, timps-mcp).- Build timps-code/timps-mcp individually:
cd timps-code && npm run build.

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.
