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 | $0.00097 | $0.00663 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00039 | $0.00265 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00019 | $0.00133 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00010 | $0.00066 |
Grade A, and why
tako-agent 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 36 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Tako agents
Tako's agents run multi-step research. An agent plans its own steps, searches the web and Tako's licensed data, computes what the question asks for, and returns a cited answer with charts or lists. All tools below live on the Tako MCP server (server name tako).
When to use an agent
Start an agent only when the user asks for one: they name Tako's agent, ask for deep or multi-step research with Tako, or ask Tako to build a list of companies or people. Otherwise, use tako-search, even when the question needs a ranking, a trend, or a calculation. Don't start an agent for a task that needs no data, such as writing, editing, or explaining a concept.
Choose the agent
- Use
tako_company_agentto find which companies or people match a set of facts: a screen by location, industry, status, founding date, funding, or size; officers, directors, or owners; or companies filtered by a financial metric, such as "UK software companies with more than £10 million in revenue". - Use
tako_agentfor a ranking, trend, total, or calculation, including companies ranked by a metric: "the 10 largest UK software companies by revenue", countries ranked by GDP, a growth rate across several periods, or a figure computed from several metrics.
Run an agent
- Send the user's question in
query, one question per call. The agent plans its own steps, so don't split the question. - If
statusisrunning, call the same tool again with thatrun_idand noquery. Don't start a new run for the same question. - If a call fails before it returns a
run_id, follow its guidance. If the guidance says the run may have started, ask the user before you retry. - For a follow-up in the same conversation, pass the
thread_idfrom the earlier run with the newquery.
Effort
tako_company_agent takes effort. Leave it unset for the default, medium. Use high only when the user asks for a thorough answer. Don't use low when the question filters by a financial metric such as revenue or headcount, because low can't. A thread keeps its effort, so omit effort on a follow-up.
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.

tako-agent is a skill published in the GitHub repository TakoData/tako-mcp (6 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 97 tokens to every session and 663 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-10-24.
