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.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00062 | $0.01075 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00025 | $0.00430 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00012 | $0.00215 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00108 |
Grade A, and why
dbos-typescript 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 7d 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 120 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
DBOS TypeScript Best Practices
Guide for building reliable, fault-tolerant TypeScript applications with DBOS durable workflows. Targets DBOS TypeScript 5.x (@dbos-inc/dbos-sdk). If a project is on 4.x or uses removed APIs (new WorkflowQueue, @DBOS.scheduled/DBOS.registerScheduled, partitionQueue, priorityEnabled, @DBOS.requiredRole, dbos-config.yaml-based config), see references/advanced-upgrading.md.
When to Apply
Reference these guidelines when:
- Adding DBOS to existing TypeScript code
- Creating workflows and steps
- Using queues for concurrency control
- Implementing workflow communication (events, messages, streams)
- Configuring and launching DBOS applications
- Using DBOSClient from external applications
- Testing DBOS applications
Rule Categories by Priority
| Priority | Category | Impact | Prefix |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Lifecycle | CRITICAL | lifecycle- |
| 2 | Workflow | CRITICAL | workflow- |
| 3 | Step | HIGH | step- |
| 4 | Queue | HIGH | queue- |
| 5 | Communication | MEDIUM | comm- |
| 6 | Pattern | MEDIUM | pattern- |
| 7 | Testing | LOW-MEDIUM | test- |
| 8 | Client | MEDIUM | client- |
| 9 | Advanced | LOW | advanced- |
Critical Rules
Installation
Always install the latest version of DBOS:
npm install @dbos-inc/dbos-sdk@latest
DBOS Configuration and Launch
A DBOS application MUST configure and launch DBOS before running any workflows:
import { DBOS } from "@dbos-inc/dbos-sdk";
async function main() {
DBOS.setConfig({
name: "my-app",
applicationVersion: "0.1.0",
systemDatabaseUrl: process.env.DBOS_SYSTEM_DATABASE_URL,
});
await DBOS.launch();
await myWorkflow();
}
main().catch(console.log);
When creating a new application, set applicationVersion to "0.1.0". If omitted, DBOS derives an opaque hash from workflow source code. When editing an existing application, leave its configured version alone — changing it is a deployment decision (see references/advanced-versioning.md).

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.

dbos-typescript is a skill published in the GitHub repository dbos-inc/agent-skills (19 stars, last pushed 7d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 62 tokens to every session and 1,075 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 2026-08-30.
