Traycer is an open-source application for coordinating multiple AI coding agents while keeping their context and shared memory connected. Developers and teams use it to run agents in parallel, switch models, automate agent discussions, and collaborate on coding work. Catalogue add-ons support workflows around Traycer.

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 5.1 | $0.02437 | $0.02437 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00975 | $0.00975 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00487 | $0.00487 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00244 | $0.00244 |
Grade A, and why
traycer 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 3d 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 — 182 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
AGENTS.md
Default branch: main. Bun 1.3.14 workspaces + Nx.
Open-source clients, CLI, and protocol. The Traycer Host and cloud backends
are not here — the CLI provisions a signed host from GitHub Releases; see
clients/traycer-cli/README.md. Setup,
toolchain and pre-commit hooks: CONTRIBUTING.md.

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.
