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 | $0.00592 | $0.00592 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00296 | $0.00296 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00118 | $0.00118 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00059 | $0.00059 |
Grade A, and why
Trident.Net 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 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.
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 — 44 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Trident.Net — Agent Guide
Project Overview
Trident.Net is a .NET 10 toolchain for managing Minecraft instances, modpacks, package repositories, and accounts. Instances are declarative (driven by profile.json), rebuildable, importable, exportable, and friendly to automation.
The repository provides both a library surface (for embedding in launchers or tools) and a CLI product (trident) installable as a .NET global tool. The CLI also ships an MCP server mode (--mcp) for AI agent integration.
Repository Layout
src/TridentCore.Abstractions/ Pure models, interfaces, enums, extension methods
src/TridentCore.Pref/ Package Reference (Pref) parsing and formatting library
src/TridentCore.Core/ Business logic, engines, API clients, services
src/TridentCore.Cli/ The `trident` CLI product (Commands + MCP Tools)
Layering: Abstractions ← Pref ← Core ← Cli. Dependencies flow downward only.
Core Concepts
- Profile (
profile.json) — Declarative description of a Minecraft instance: game version, loader, packages, rules, and runtime overrides. Managed byProfileManager. - Pref (Package Reference) — Identifier format
pref://repository/projectIdorpref://repository/projectId@versionId, e.g.pref://modrinth/aC3cM3Vq@9I21YYxf. Parsed byTridentCore.Pref. - Instance — A concrete deployment of a profile on disk, built by the staged
DeployEnginepipeline. - Repository — Package source abstraction (Modrinth, CurseForge, user-configured). Queried through
RepositoryAgent. - Loader — Mod loader (Forge, NeoForge, Fabric, Quilt). Metadata via PrismLauncher API.
- Lock Data (
data.lock.json) — Snapshotted deployment state for rebuild and diff.
CLI Project
The CLI layer follows a strict Commands → Operations → Tools pattern — Commands and Tools must NOT contain business logic; they delegate to Operations/ static methods. For full details see AGENTS.CLI.md (architecture, entry point flow, MCP conventions, coverage table).
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.

Trident.Net AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository TridentCore/Trident.Net (5 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 592 tokens to every session, about $0.0030 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
