messaging-queue

A set of rules for routing alerts and events to an AI agent through one ordered queue. It covers messages from inputs such as terminal sessions, server notifications, and browser errors.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when changing code that sends alerts, logs, errors, notifications, or other events into an AI agent’s input.
Why use it?
It prevents duplicate, out-of-order, or badly timed messages caused by separate code paths writing to the agent at once. It also defines when to combine, delay, or hold events.

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

messaging-queue 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 — 154 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Messaging Queue Coordination

Use this skill when touching any code that delivers events to an AI agent — PTY stdin injection, MCP Log() notifications, channel pings, overlay toasts, hold buffers, alert hubs, or auto-forward paths. Every "spamming the agent" bug we have shipped traces back to violating one of the rules below.

The Single-Queue Rule

There is exactly one ordered pipeline from "raw event" to "agent's input". Anything that writes to the agent surface MUST flow through it. Parallel writes are bugs, even when they "work" most of the time — they bypass dedup, activity-deferral, outage-holds, and ordering, and they are the canonical cause of repeated-message spam.

Currently in this project the canonical queue is internal/overlay/alerts.go::AlertScanner (process-output side) plus the daemon-side gate chain in internal/daemon/hub_helpers.go::wireProxyLogger (proxy-side).

Resolved (PTY side): the browser-error / auto-forward path cmd/agnt/overlay.go::processAutoForwardEvent no longer writes the PTY directly. It cascade-filters then calls AlertScanner.Inject, so browser-JS and HTTP errors now share the same dedup / batch / overload-throttle / activity-defer queue as process-output alerts. The old lastForwardNs global single-timestamp debounce has been removed. The remaining direct typeText in processProxyEvent is for non-error UI/automation events (panel messages, sketch, design) only — error sources all flow through the queue.

Still parallel (cross-process, low incidence): the daemon incident pipeline delivers to MCP-native agents via incident_digestsession.Log() (consumed only by agnt mcp, serve.go), while PTY-wrapped agents get stdin injection via the overlay socket (consumed by agnt run). These serve different consumer processes / different agents (MCP-native vs PTY-only), so the same agent does not normally get both. A single agent that is both MCP-connected and under agnt run could double-receive; per-session delivery-mode routing (adapter identity → mcp|stdin) is the intended fix and is not yet wired.

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.

messaging-queue is a skill published in the GitHub repository standardbeagle/agnt (19 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 43 tokens to every session and 2,931 once invoked, about $0.0002 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.
