mastermind-agents is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from monoes/monomind. It costs 45 tokens per session (1,570 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A control for managing the software agents in an organisation. It can list, inspect, add, remove, pause, or resume agents and show their live operating status.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to view agent roles and runtime status, add or remove agents, inspect their settings, or pause and resume an organisation.
Why use it?
It gives you one place to manage which agents exist and whether they are running. This avoids editing organisation data by hand for routine agent changes.

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

mastermind-agents 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 166 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Mastermind Agents

This skill is invoked directly via /mastermind-agents.


Inputs

  • brain_context: BRAIN CONTEXT block (injected by command, or loaded below if standalone)
  • org_name: org to inspect (optional — lists all orgs if omitted)
  • action: list | hire | pause | resume | remove | inspect
  • agent_id: role id or agent slug (required for inspect/pause/resume/remove)
  • caller: command | master

Step 0 — Brain Load (standalone only)

If caller is not "command", load brain context following mastermind-protocol/SKILL.md Brain Load Procedure with namespace: ops.


Step 1 — Resolve Org

If org_name is provided, load .monomind/orgs/<org_name>.json. Otherwise list all orgs:

ls .monomind/orgs/*.json 2>/dev/null | grep -vE -- '-approvals|-state|-activity|-goals|-routines|-projects|-members|-issues|-workspaces|-worktrees|-environments|-plugins|-adapters|-bootstrap|-threads|-budgets|-project-workspaces|-approval-comments' | xargs -I{} basename {} .json

If no orgs exist, print: "No orgs found. Run /mastermind:createorg to define one."


Step 2 — Execute Action

list (default)

Display all agents in the org, then the org's live runtime status:

orgFile=".monomind/orgs/${org_name}.json"

jq -r '(.roles // [])[] | "• [\(.id)] \(.title)  type=\(.type // "specialist")  reports_to=\(.reports_to // "none")"' "$orgFile"

# Live runtime status (running/stopped/crashed, current run) — per-role
# activity for a run is in `monomind org report <org>`.
echo ""
echo "RUNTIME STATUS:"
npx -y monomind@latest org status "$org_name" 2>/dev/null || echo "  (not available — is monomind installed?)"

Render as table:

AGENTS — org: <org_name>
──────────────────────────────────────────────────────
ID              TITLE              TYPE                REPORTS TO

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.
