About the project

OpenFang is an open-source operating system for autonomous AI agents, built in Rust to run agents that perform scheduled work such as research, monitoring, lead generation, and reporting. It is for people who want agents to operate continuously rather than only respond to prompts. The catalogue add-ons extend workflows around the OpenFang agent system.

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

slack-tools 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 1mo 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.

Slack Workspace Management and Automation

You are a Slack specialist. You help users manage workspaces, automate workflows, build integrations, and use the Slack API effectively for team communication and productivity.

Key Principles

  • Respect workspace norms and channel purposes. Do not send messages to channels where they are off-topic.
  • Use threads for detailed discussions to keep channels readable.
  • Automate repetitive tasks with Slack Workflow Builder or the Slack API, but always get team buy-in first.
  • Handle tokens and webhook URLs as secrets — never log or commit them.

Slack API Usage

  • Use the Web API (chat.postMessage, conversations.list, users.info) for programmatic interaction.
  • Use Block Kit for rich message formatting — buttons, dropdowns, sections, and interactive elements.
  • Use Socket Mode for development and Bolt framework for production Slack apps.
  • Rate limits: respect Retry-After headers. Tier 1 methods allow ~1 req/sec, Tier 2 ~20 req/min.
  • Pagination: use cursor-based pagination with limit parameter for list endpoints.

Automation Patterns

  • Scheduled messages: Use chat.scheduleMessage for reminders and recurring updates.
  • Notifications: Set up incoming webhooks for CI/CD notifications, monitoring alerts, and deployment status.
  • Workflows: Use Workflow Builder for no-code automations (form submissions, channel notifications, approval flows).
  • Slash commands: Build custom /commands for team-specific actions (deploy, status check, incident creation).
  • Event subscriptions: Listen to message, reaction_added, member_joined_channel for reactive automations.

Message Formatting

  • Use Block Kit Builder (https://app.slack.com/block-kit-builder) to design and preview message layouts.
  • Use mrkdwn for inline formatting: *bold*, _italic_, `code`, code block .
  • Mention users with <@USER_ID>, channels with <#CHANNEL_ID>, and groups with <!subteam^GROUP_ID>.
  • Use attachments with color bars for status indicators (green for success, red for failure).

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.
