symbi-policy

symbi-policy is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Ezee234/symbi-gemini-cli. It costs 37 tokens per session (344 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of symbi-policy, Apache-2.0.

A tool for creating, changing, and checking Cedar authorization policies for Symbiont agents. Cedar is a language for deciding who may perform which actions on which resources.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to define role-based, resource-scoped, time-limited, approval-based, or audit-focused permissions for agents.
Why use it?
It helps turn access requirements into explicit allow and deny rules and investigate policy-evaluation problems.

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

symbi-policy 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.

Origin

What it actually says

Cedar Policy Management

Help the user create or modify Cedar policies for their Symbiont agents.

Cedar Policy Syntax Reference

Cedar policies use permit and forbid to control access:

// Allow an agent to read from a specific resource
permit(
    principal == Agent::"data-analyzer",
    action == Action::"read",
    resource in ResourceGroup::"public-datasets"
);

// Forbid writing PII unless the agent has HIPAA compliance
forbid(
    principal,
    action == Action::"write",
    resource
) when {
    resource.contains_pii == true
} unless {
    principal.compliance_level == "hipaa"
};

Common Policy Patterns

When asked to create a policy, identify the pattern:

  • Role-based: Different agent roles get different permissions
  • Resource-scoped: Permissions vary by resource type/sensitivity
  • Time-bounded: Permissions that expire or are scheduled
  • Approval-gated: Actions requiring human approval
  • Audit-all: Log everything, permit/deny selectively

Workflow

  1. Ask what the policy should govern (which agents, which actions, which resources)
  2. Identify the pattern from the list above
  3. Write the Cedar policy
  4. Save to policies/ directory
  5. If symbi is available, validate with symbi dsl parse to check syntax

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.
