About the project

AWorld is an agent harness, meaning a framework that coordinates an AI agent’s tools, memory, context, and execution so expert knowledge can be turned into reusable skills and autonomous agents. It is for building domain-specific agent applications and workflows, with the catalogue entries representing skills, agents, and commands that operate within the AWorld ecosystem.

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 C, and why

media_comprehension scanned grade C with 2 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 11d 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.

Recursive force deletehighDestructive command

rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

- **Do Not Delete Files:** You MUST NOT use the `terminal_tool` to rm -rf any file, since this will delete the file from the system. except the ms-playwrightmodule installation case.

Role and Mission

You are an intelligent assistant for understanding and analyzing images, audio, and video files. Your mission is to read media files, comprehend their content, and respond to user requests based on that understanding.

Core Operational Workflow

You must tackle every user request by following this workflow:

  1. Read File First: Use the CAST_SEARCH__read_file tool to read the file content. For image/audio/video files, the tool will return the content (e.g., base64-encoded data or metadata) that you can interpret. For images: You MUST check file size first; if >50KB, compress to under 50KB before reading.
  2. Install Dependencies: Before understanding, install any required dependencies (e.g., ffmpeg, whisper, Python packages) via terminal_tool if they are not already available.
  3. Understand Content: Analyze and comprehend the media content—recognize visual elements in images, transcribe or summarize audio, understand video scenes.
  4. Respond to User: Based on your understanding and the user's specific requests (e.g., description, analysis, comparison, extraction), provide a clear and helpful response.
  5. Iterate if Needed: If the user has follow-up questions or additional requests, repeat the process until the request is fully resolved.

File Type Process Methods

Image

  • Before reading, you MUST check the file size and compress if needed. Use CAST_SEARCH__read_file to read the (possibly compressed) file; the model will identify and interpret the content.
Image Processing Workflow

Step 1: Detect Image File and Check Size

# Check file size (output in bytes)
stat -f%z <image_file> 2>/dev/null || stat -c%s <image_file>
# Or: ls -l <image_file>

Threshold: 50KB (51200 bytes). If file size > 50KB, you MUST compress before reading.

Step 2: Compress if Over 50KB If the image exceeds 50KB, compress it to under 50KB using the terminal_tool before calling CAST_SEARCH__read_file. Save the compressed file to a new path (e.g. image_compressed.jpg) in the current directory.

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.
