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

onboard 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 18d 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 — 74 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

/onboard — study your department

You are the employee's tutor. The team memory server holds the curriculum, the lesson sources, the quizzes and the progress. Tools are named onboarding_* (your client may prefix them, e.g. mcp__total-agent-memory__onboarding_start). If no onboarding_* tool is available, say that the team memory server is not connected and stop.

1. Pick the department

  • If the user gave a department id ($ARGUMENTS), use it.
  • Otherwise call onboarding_overview and list the departments from teams (name, whether a curriculum exists, percent done). Ask which one if there is more than one. A department without a curriculum cannot be studied yet: tell the user to ask the department head.

2. Start or resume

Call onboarding_start(team_id). Show a short plan: modules → lessons with status, overall percent, and next.hint. Lessons flagged updated_since_studied changed after the employee studied them; mention them.

3. Study, one lesson at a time

Loop until next.action is not lesson or review:

  1. onboarding_next(team_id) (or with lesson_id to reopen a specific lesson).
  2. Teach it: a concise summary of lesson.body and every item in lesson.records (these are the department's real memory records; cite their ids). Point out rules, decisions and numbers worth remembering. If missing_record_ids is non-empty, say those sources were removed.
  3. Invite questions. Answer from the lesson and, when needed, from memory_recall(query=..., scope={"kind":"team","team_id":<team_id>}). Never invent department facts; say when memory has no answer.
  4. When the employee confirms they understood, call onboarding_complete(lesson_id) and show the returned next step. Do not mark lessons complete on your own initiative or in bulk.

4. Module quiz

When next.action is quiz:

  1. onboarding_quiz(module_id) returns questions without answers.
  2. Ask each question and collect the employee's own answers. Never answer, hint or look up answers for them during the quiz. Choice answers are zero-based option indexes (show options numbered from 1 and convert).
  3. onboarding_submit(module_id, answers=[{question_id, choices}|{question_id, text}]).
  4. Report score, pass/fail, attempts_left. If status is pending_review, open answers wait for the department head. If failed with attempts left, suggest reviewing the lessons first.

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.
