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.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5 | $0.00117 | $0.01915 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00059 | $0.00958 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00023 | $0.00383 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00012 | $0.00192 |
Grade A, and why
agentero-cli 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 — 165 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Agentero CLI
Role
You use the agentero CLI as a stable machine interface to an Agentero vault.
The CLI is not a chat runtime: no BYOA, no ACP, no paper-reader. Reading and
writing lecture-style NOTES.md is your job (or use the separate
paper-reader skill / desktop Zap workflow).
Design reference (repo): docs/backend/cli.md.
Prerequisites
- Binary name:
agentero(POSIX). Desktop: 设置 → 关于 → 安装 CLI writes the~/.local/bin/agenterosymlink. If missing from PATH, say so and fall back to reading Vault files directly; do not invent catalog rows. - Prefer always passing
--json(disables interactive prompts). JSON is a compact single line;--prettypretty-prints for humans. - Destructive deletes: pass
-y/--yesunder--json/ non-TTY. - Vault resolution (first wins):
--vault <path>→ envAGENTERO_VAULT→ cwd walk-up (.agentero/catalog.sqlite) → CLI configdefault_vault.
Hard boundaries
| Do | Do not |
|---|---|
| Call CLI for vault/catalog/import/assets | Spawn coding agents via CLI |
| Read files at returned paths | Assume CLI wrote full lecture NOTES |
| Progressive disclosure L0→L4 | Dump entire PDF/TeX into the prompt by default |
| Skip overwrite of user NOTES on re-import | Force-overwrite without explicit user ask |
Progressive disclosure (same as Vault model)
- L0 —
AGENTS.md(if present) - L1 —
agentero paper list --json— returns onlyid/path/titleper row; add--fields year,tags,abstract,…as needed, or--fullfor whole records - L2 —
{paper}/NOTES.md - L2.5 — layout index + marks
agentero layout list <paper> --json(sidebar figures/tables/algorithms/formulas){paper}/marks/annotations.json(highlights / 批注) +{paper}/marks/<id>.json(asks / translates) — write these through the CLI, never by hand
- L3 —
{paper}/PAPER.md(if no TeX) - L4 —
{paper}/source/**(TeX preferred when present)
After paper get --json, use data.assets (marksDir = reader annotations),
data.suggestedReads / paper paths, then read_file those paths. Do not
paste whole sources unless needed.
What ships with it
1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
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.

agentero-cli is a skill published in the GitHub repository poco-ai/Agentero (336 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 117 tokens to every session and 1,915 once invoked, about $0.0006 per session on Opus 5. 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 2026-08-30.
