kon

A multi-agent workflow for software engineering tasks started with `/kon:` commands. It coordinates stages such as exploration, research, planning, implementation, debugging, and review.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to run coordinated development workflows from a repository. It supports commands for designing, implementing, debugging, reviewing, researching, and summarizing work.
Why use it?
It separates different kinds of work and gives each stage a defined role and output. This makes complex changes easier to investigate, execute, and verify.

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.

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

kon 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 2d 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.

kon — Multi-Agent Workflow

Plugin root (KON_ROOT)

Resolve once at the start of every kon command:

export KON_ROOT="$(python3 "$HOME/.kon/lib/_kon_paths.py" root)"

Resolution order: KON_ROOT env → ~/.kon/config.json → kon clone → ~/Desktop/kon. All paths below use $KON_ROOT/....

Trigger

When the user invokes a slash command/kon:team, /kon:design, /kon:quick, /kon:debug, /kon:ask, /kon:review, /kon:review-pr, /kon:hunt, /kon:gc, /kon:research, /kon:describe-issue, /kon:begin, /kon:finish, /kon:summarize, /kon:retro, /kon:address-comments, /kon:todo, /kon:understand-codebasestop answering directly and run the orchestration flow below.

Orchestration

1. Session file (do this first)

python3 $KON_ROOT/scripts/kon_session.py init --command "/kon:team" --task "…"

2. Read the matching command file

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.

kon is a skill published in the GitHub repository dentiny/kon (3 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 166 tokens to every session and 1,243 once invoked, about $0.0008 per session on Opus 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 2026-08-31.
