Reins A lightweight agent harness you bolt onto your app so an LLM can operate it — safely and cheaply. Point Reins at functions you already have — or your ORM models — and hand it a goal in plain language. It works out which of your operations to call and in what order, runs them through your own code (never raw SQL by default), and returns the result, with near-zero token overhead and safe-by-default writes. There is no graph to draw: you expose your app, and the agent operates it. The wedge: Reins gives the model your verbs, not your tables. Intent-named functions like carry the meaning that raw schemas and OpenAPI specs strip away — which is exactly where text-to-SQL and auto-generated tool layers lose their reliability. Example python from reins import Agent, capability @capability def findorders(status: str) - list[dict]: """Find orders by their current status.""" return store.orders(status=status) # your existing code @capability def refundorder(orderid: int) - dict: """Refund a customer's order by its public order number.""" return payments.refund(orderid) # your existing code agent = Agent(capabilities=[findorders, refundorder])

Grades come from a rule-based scan built on the SlowMist agent-security taxonomy, covering 11 red-flag categories including credential harvesting, data exfiltration, and curl | sh installers. It is a first-layer scan, not a manual audit — we say so rather than overstate it.
The scale of the problem is documented independently: Liu et al. (2026), in a study of 31,132 agent skills, report that 26.1% contain security vulnerabilities. Our own full-catalog census is published as a citable open dataset.
