Zylos is open-source infrastructure that gives an AI agent persistent memory, scheduled activity, communication channels, and the ability to maintain and extend itself. Individuals and teams use it with Claude Code or Codex through Telegram, Lark, or a web console. Its catalogue add-ons define settings, instructions, and skills for operating the agent.
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.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00037 | $0.01592 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00018 | $0.00796 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00007 | $0.00318 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00159 |
Grade A, and why
component-management 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 11d 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.

Component Management
Guidelines for installing, upgrading, and managing zylos components.
CLI
zylos is a global npm command (installed via npm install -g zylos).
Run it directly as zylos, NOT as ~/zylos/zylos or ./zylos.
General Principles
- Always confirm before executing - User must explicitly approve install/upgrade/uninstall
- Guide interactively - Never just tell user to "manually edit files"
- Read SKILL.md - Each component declares its requirements in SKILL.md frontmatter
- Detect execution mode - Handle both Claude session and C4 channels differently
- CLI = mechanical, Claude = intelligent - CLI handles downloads, backups, file sync. Claude handles config, hooks, service management, user interaction.
Workflows
Detailed step-by-step workflows for each operation (Session + C4 modes):
- Install — Add new components
- Upgrade — Upgrade components and zylos-core (self-upgrade)
- Uninstall — Remove components with data options
Quick Commands
# Check zylos-core version
zylos --version
# List installed components (with versions)
zylos list
# Search available components
zylos search <keyword>
# Component status
zylos status
# Check for zylos-core updates
zylos upgrade --self --check
# Check for beta/prerelease updates
zylos upgrade --self --check --beta
# Check all components for updates
zylos upgrade --all --check
SKILL.md Config Format
Components declare their configuration requirements in SKILL.md frontmatter:
---
name: my-component
version: 1.0.0
description: Component description
config:
required:
- name: ENV_VAR_NAME
description: Human-readable description
sensitive: true # Optional: marks as secret
optional:
- name: OPTIONAL_VAR
description: Optional setting
default: "default-value"
---
When sensitive: true, the value should be handled carefully and not logged.
What ships with it
4 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.

component-management is a skill published in the GitHub repository zylos-ai/zylos-core (1,151 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 37 tokens to every session and 1,592 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.
