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 5.1 | $0.00000 | $0.00188 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00075 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00038 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00019 |
Grade A, and why
architecture 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 2mo 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.
What it actually says
Architecture Exploration Workflow
1. smart_turn(start, userPrompt='Understand auth flow')
2. smart_context(task='understand auth architecture', detail=minimal)
→ High-level project structure + relevant files in one call
3. smart_read(mode=signatures, filePath=<key files>)
→ API surface only — for files smart_context flagged as important
4. cross_project(mode='search', query=<concept>) — if monorepo
5. smart_turn(end, summary='Auth uses JWT with...')
Key: Start with smart_context(detail=minimal) — it gives you the project map. Only use smart_read(signatures) for files you need to understand deeper. Never read full files during exploration.
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.

architecture is a cursor rule published in the GitHub repository Arrayo/smart-context-mcp (4 stars, last pushed 5d ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 188 tokens. 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.
