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 5.1 | $0.00152 | $0.07292 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00061 | $0.02917 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00030 | $0.01458 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00015 | $0.00729 |
Grade C, and why
configuring-agent-brain scanned grade C with 3 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.
Asks for rootmediumPrivilege escalation
A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.
# DO NOT use sudo with pip Reads agent configuration directoriesmediumAgent snooping
.claude/, .codex/, .gemini/ hold keys, settings and other credentials a mod has no legitimate need for.
# ...or for Codex (writes ~/.codex/config.toml, TOML [mcp_servers.agent-brain]) Makes network callslowCapability
Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

Multi-Runtime Support
Agent Brain supports multiple AI coding runtimes from a single canonical plugin source:
| Runtime | Install Command |
|---|---|
| Claude Code | agent-brain install-agent --agent claude |
| OpenCode | agent-brain install-agent --agent opencode |
| Codex (+ AGENTS.md) | agent-brain install-agent --agent codex |
| Cursor | agent-brain install-agent --agent cursor |
| Grok Build | agent-brain install-agent --agent grok |
| Any skill runtime | agent-brain install-agent --agent skill-runtime --dir <path> |
All runtimes share the same .agent-brain/ data directory for indexes, configuration, and server state. The install-agent command converts the canonical plugin format into each runtime's native format automatically.
Use --global for user-level installation, or --dry-run to preview files before writing.
Quick Setup
Option A: Local with Ollama (FREE, No API Keys)
# 1. Install packages
pip install agent-brain-rag agent-brain-cli
# 2. Install and start Ollama
brew install ollama # macOS
ollama serve &
ollama pull nomic-embed-text
ollama pull llama3.2
# 3. Configure for Ollama
export EMBEDDING_PROVIDER=ollama
export EMBEDDING_MODEL=nomic-embed-text
export SUMMARIZATION_PROVIDER=ollama
export SUMMARIZATION_MODEL=llama3.2
# 4. Initialize and start
agent-brain init
agent-brain start
agent-brain status
Option B: Cloud Providers (Best Quality)
# 1. Install packages
pip install agent-brain-rag agent-brain-cli
# 2. Configure API keys
export OPENAI_API_KEY="sk-proj-..." # For embeddings
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY="sk-ant-..." # For summarization (optional)
# 3. Initialize and start
agent-brain init
agent-brain start
agent-brain status
What ships with it
5 files 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.
- 1mo ago First seen · 839 lines · 152 tokens per session scan C f14742143c69
configuring-agent-brain is a skill published in the GitHub repository SpillwaveSolutions/agent-brain (119 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 152 tokens to every session and 7,292 once invoked, about $0.0006 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it C with 3 findings (asks for root, reads agent configuration directories, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-05.
