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 | $0.00051 | $0.02054 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00020 | $0.00822 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00010 | $0.00411 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00205 |
Grade A, and why
cartographer-kb-import 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 — 132 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
KB Import — Skill
Purpose
Guide an agent (with its operator) through importing an external corpus that does not follow Cartographer/OKF patterns — an Obsidian vault, a plain docs folder, an exported wiki — into a Cartographer KB. The core principle (D74, consistent with D28: no server-side ingest tool):
- Mechanical work is free: layout mapping, frontmatter synthesis and link rewriting go through
the
cartographer importCLI scaffold — zero LLM tokens, cost proportional to corpus size. - Semantic work is agentic and incremental: archive mapping, dedup and content curation are
done by the agent, in small batches across sessions, driven by the
imported_draftlint finding. Never rewrite a whole wiki in one session. - Human checkpoint before any write: the mapping plan is approved by the operator first.
Steps
1. Recon the source (read-only)
Inventory the corpus without modifying it: file count and formats, directory structure, link
style ([[wiki]] vs [text](path.md)), presence/shape of existing frontmatter, obvious
non-content (assets, templates, daily notes, trash). Produce a short summary for the operator.
Secrets check. Grep the source for credentials/PII (
password,token,BEGIN.*KEY, etc.) before anything is written to a KB that will be pushed — git history is forever, so this check comes before any write and stays first. For each finding, decide explicitly between two outcomes and record the choice with the operator:
- Exclude the file (or strip the value) from the import — the default for anything that is not a credential the KB needs to resolve;
- Move the value into an encrypted file and leave the concept referencing it via
secret_refs. The full procedure — age key, root.sops.yamlcreation rules, the first encrypted file, theServiceconcept — is thecartographer-kb-createskill'sreferences/secrets.md. Cartographer performs none of the operator-side steps.If the corpus carries a
.sops.yamlor*.sops.yamlof its own, do not merge it blindly into the target KB's rules: the recipients must be reconciled deliberately, because a wrong merge silently produces files nobody on the team can decrypt.
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.

cartographer-kb-import is a skill published in the GitHub repository BeppeTemp/cartographer (45 stars, last pushed today), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 51 tokens to every session and 2,054 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-10-23.
