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.

A badge with what this costs and how it scanned, read live from this page, so it follows the numbers instead of freezing them. Markdown for a README, HTML for a documentation site or a project page.

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 | $0.00274 | $0.00274 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00137 | $0.00137 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00055 | $0.00055 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00027 | $0.00027 |
Grade A, and why
agentic-journal GEMINI.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.
This is a copy
89% identical to DevoxxGenieIDEAPlugin GEMINI.md — 2 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.
What it actually says
<CRITICAL_INSTRUCTION>
BACKLOG WORKFLOW INSTRUCTIONS
This project uses Backlog.md MCP for all task and project management activities.
CRITICAL GUIDANCE
-
If your client supports MCP resources, read
backlog://workflow/overviewto understand when and how to use Backlog for this project. -
If your client only supports tools or the above request fails, call
backlog.get_backlog_instructions()to load the tool-oriented overview. Use theinstructionselector when you needtask-creation,task-execution, ortask-finalization. -
First time working here? Read the overview resource IMMEDIATELY to learn the workflow
-
Already familiar? You should have the overview cached ("## Backlog.md Overview (MCP)")
-
When to read it: BEFORE creating tasks, or when you're unsure whether to track work
These guides cover:
- Decision framework for when to create tasks
- Search-first workflow to avoid duplicates
- Links to detailed guides for task creation, execution, and finalization
- MCP tools reference
You MUST read the overview resource to understand the complete workflow. The information is NOT summarized here.

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.
