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 | $0.01688 | $0.01688 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00844 | $0.00844 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00338 | $0.00338 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00169 | $0.00169 |
Grade A, and why
kitaru 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 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.
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 — 134 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Repository Guidelines
Kitaru is a mixed Python + docs repo. It produces the Python package (SDK and
server) and the SDK reference docs app. The public marketing site and
kitaru.ai runtime live in the sibling zenml-io-v2 repository, not here.
Project Map

For adapter, importer, specialized UI API, docs, CI, and release work, load the
matching Kitaru repo skill under .agents/skills/. Keep each logical repo skill
available under the same name in .claude/skills/; share host-neutral guidance
and diverge only for a documented host-specific reason.
Core Commands
Use uv for Python dependency management and just for the normal command
stack.
uv sync: install and sync dependenciesuv sync --extra server: include server componentsjust fix: auto-fix formatting, lint, and YAML issuesjust check: run format, lint, typecheck, typos, YAML, actions lint, and linksjust test: run the full pytest suitejust test tests/test_file.py::test_name: run one targeted testjust build: build wheel and sdist locally
Typical loop: write code -> just fix -> just check -> just test.
When running the full suite through output that may truncate, preserve the failure names:
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.

kitaru AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository zenml-io/kitaru (270 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 1,688 tokens to every session, about $0.0084 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 2026-08-30.
