What is it for?
Use it to list and inspect services, view or follow logs, stop and restart containers, remove or update services, open an interactive shell, or run commands inside a container.

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

service-manage scanned grade A with 1 finding 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.

Service Manage

Manage services running inside Kurtosis enclaves.

List services

# Services are shown in enclave inspect output
kurtosis enclave inspect <enclave-name>

View logs

# View logs
kurtosis service logs <enclave-name> <service-name>

# Follow logs in real time
kurtosis service logs <enclave-name> <service-name> -f

# Show all logs (not just recent)
kurtosis service logs <enclave-name> <service-name> -a

Shell and exec

# Get an interactive shell
kurtosis service shell <enclave-name> <service-name>

# Execute a single command
kurtosis service exec <enclave-name> <service-name> -- ls -la /data

# Execute with pipes (wrap in sh -c)
kurtosis service exec <enclave-name> <service-name> -- sh -c "cat /etc/hosts | grep localhost"

Inspect a service

kurtosis service inspect <enclave-name> <service-name>

Shows detailed info including ports, status, and container ID.

Stop and start

# Stop a service (keeps it in the enclave, just stops the container)
kurtosis service stop <enclave-name> <service-name>

# Restart a stopped service
kurtosis service start <enclave-name> <service-name>

Remove a service

kurtosis service rm <enclave-name> <service-name>

Add a service manually

kurtosis service add <enclave-name> <service-name> <image>

Update a service

kurtosis service update <enclave-name> <service-name>

Common patterns

Verify after operations

Always confirm stop/start/rm succeeded:

# Check service state changed as expected
kurtosis enclave inspect <enclave-name>

# For start: verify the service responds
kurtosis service exec <enclave-name> <service-name> -- wget -qO- http://localhost:8080/health

Check if a service is healthy

# HTTP health check
kurtosis service exec <enclave-name> <service-name> -- wget -qO- http://localhost:8080/health

# Check process is running
kurtosis service exec <enclave-name> <service-name> -- ps aux

# Check listening ports
kurtosis service exec <enclave-name> <service-name> -- netstat -tlnp

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.
