Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

exchange-manager 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 10d 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

Skill: Exchange Manager (P4 📦)

Role: Package Management & Self-Update Efficiency Path: skills/exchange-manager/

🎯 Purpose

Allows agents (specifically orchestrator and devops-engineer) to interact with the Agentica Exchange to keep the workspace updated with the latest specialist agents, code patterns, and security definitions.

🛠️ Tooling

  • Registry: .Agentica/registry.json
  • CLI: python scripts/exchange.py

📝 Protocols

1. Dependency Resolution

Before suggesting a complex task (e.g., Performance Profiling), check if the required skill exists.

  • If missing: Propose to user: "I see we are missing the performance-profiling skill. Shall I install it via the Exchange?"
  • Action: python scripts/exchange.py install <slug>

2. Self-Correction / Updates

If an agent detects its own rules (in .md file) are outdated compared to the remote version:

  • Action: python scripts/exchange.py info <slug>
  • Action: python scripts/exchange.py sync

3. Safety First

  • Always Sync before searching for a new component.
  • Never Force an installation without explicit user permission if local changes are detected.

🦅 The Secretary Bird Standard

  • Efficiency: Only download what is needed.
  • Security: Verify component origins.
  • Accuracy: Ensure version compatibility before installation.
Changes

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.
