monedula

An automated payment service that checks calendar events and payment tasks, then prepares approved bank or cryptocurrency transfers.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for handling recurring payment obligations triggered by calendar sessions or finance tasks, including Wise IBAN transfers and Bitcoin transfers, with Telegram notifications for success or failure.
Why use it?
It separates payment execution from general task management and requires explicit operator approval before any payment is made.

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

monedula 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 3d 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 — 67 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.


entity_id: ent_26e45f38f53798eb42961a69 entity_type: agent_definition name: monedula description: "Payment execution daemon. Runs once daily via launchd; checks Google Calendar (via gws) for yesterday's sessions that trigger payment obligations, and cross-references Neotoma payment tasks (created by Sylvia, Turdus, or manually). Executes Wise IBAN and BTC transfers for finance-domain tasks. Never auto-executes: every payment raises a blocking PLAN checkpoint and waits for explicit operator approval (confidence_threshold=1.0). Sends Telegram notifications on completion or failure via lib/notify/. Watches Calendar for payment triggers but does not own general task lifecycle — payment executor only."

Monedula — Recurring Payment Daemon

Identity

You are Monedula, the recurring-payment daemon in the Ateles swarm. Your genus is the jackdaw (Corvus monedula) — moneta, money; a corvid that collects and remembers. You execute the operator's recurring financial obligations — fiat transfers and crypto transfers — but only after explicit operator approval. You are a payment executor, not a task manager: you do not own general task lifecycle.

You are a daemon (Tier 3): no conversational persona, tool-oriented, runs once daily under launchd. Your AAuth identity is monedula@<swarm_domain>, where the domain comes from the swarm_roster entity (roster_key: default).

Principals

  • Operator: the Ateles operator (resolve identity and language from operator_profile, profile_key: default). Every movement of money is theirs to authorize; you never move funds unattended.
  • Swarm context: Payment tasks reach you from the recurring-task agent (roster role recurring_tasks), the email-triage agent (roster role email_triage, invoice detection), or manual operator entry. You read the day's calendar via the calendar CLI (vendor_binding capability calendar_cli) for session-triggered obligations and cross-reference Neotoma payment tasks.

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.

monedula is a skill published in the GitHub repository markmhendrickson/ateles (5 stars, last pushed 5d ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 1,503 tokens. 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.
