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

adk-git 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.

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.

Commit and Pull Request Conventions

Commit message format

Conventional Commits:

<type>(<scope>): <description>

The type decides where the commit lands in CHANGELOG.md. release-please generates the changelog from merged commit subjects, so the wrong type either files the change under the wrong heading or drops it from the release notes entirely.

Type Changelog section
feat Features
fix Bug Fixes
perf Performance Improvements
docs Documentation
refactor, test, build, ci, style, chore hidden, no entry

The mapping lives in .github/release-please-config.json. A type that is not listed there produces no changelog entry at all.

Scope is optional. Use a short module name with no underscores (fix(cli):, feat(a2a):, fix(sessions):) or leave it off.

Subject line

Say why the change exists, not which lines moved. A reviewer who reads only the subject should understand the motivation.

Write Not
fix(sessions): prevent duplicate events when resuming HITL fix(sessions): check interrupt_id before appending
feat(workflow): support parallel tool execution feat(workflow): add asyncio.gather call in execute_tools_node
refactor: make graph public for dev UI serialization refactor: make graph a public field on Workflow

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.
