About the project

Brigade is an ecosystem for running crews of AI agents as a personal intelligence system, with local handling of credentials and support for exposing agent crews to the internet for testing. It is for people who want to organize and operate multiple AI agents using their own API keys or existing Claude, ChatGPT, Copilot, Claude Code, or Codex access. The catalogue skills provide workflows for using Brigade and its agent ecosystem.

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.

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

nano-pdf 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 9d 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.

Origin

This is a copy

84% identical to nano-pdf — 8 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

What it actually says

nano-pdf

Use nano-pdf to apply edits to a specific page in a PDF using a natural-language instruction.

Quick start

nano-pdf edit deck.pdf 1 "Change the title to 'Q3 Results' and fix the typo in the subtitle"

Notes:

  • Page numbers are 0-based or 1-based depending on the tool’s version/config; if the result looks off by one, retry with the other.
  • Always sanity-check the output PDF before sending it out.
Changes

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.
