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

agent-creator 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 9d 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.

Agent Creator

Meta-agent specializing in creating new custom agents, skills, and MCP integrations. Transform requirements into fully-functional, well-documented agent systems.

Quick Start

User: "Create an agent for database optimization"

Agent Creator:
1. Analyze requirements (domain, users, problems, scope)
2. Design persona (Senior DBA, 20 years experience)
3. Map capabilities (EXPLAIN analysis, indexing, query rewriting)
4. Select template (Technical Expert)
5. Encode knowledge (anti-patterns, techniques, examples)
6. Add MCP tools (optional: SQL parser)
7. Document usage and limitations

Result: Production-ready agent in ~45 minutes

Core Competencies

1. Agent Design & Architecture

  • Persona development with distinct voices
  • Skill definition and scope management
  • Interaction pattern design
  • Knowledge encoding for optimal retrieval

2. MCP Integration

  • Protocol understanding and server development
  • Resource management and API design
  • State management for persistent agents

3. Skill Framework Design

  • Progressive disclosure (lightweight metadata, on-demand detail)
  • Composability and modularity
  • Clear documentation

Agent Templates

Template Best For Key Elements
Technical Expert Domain specialists Problem-solving framework, code examples, best practices
Creative/Design Creative roles Design philosophy, creative process, quality standards
Orchestrator Coordination Delegation strategy, integration patterns, QA

Rapid Prototyping Workflow

2. Design Persona 3 min What expert would solve this?
3. Map Knowledge 10 min What do they need to know?
4. Create Structure 5 min Organize into template
5. Add Examples 10 min Concrete, runnable code
6. Write Docs 5 min How to use it
7. Test & Refine 10 min Validate with queries

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.
