synthesis-worker

A reasoning worker that combines research results and growth factors into new growth tactics. It does not research the live web; it works from files prepared by earlier stages.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to combine two or three growth factors with founder constraints and produce tactics for further evaluation.
Why use it?
It keeps idea generation focused on comparing known inputs instead of mixing research and strategy in one step.

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

synthesis-worker 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 yesterday.

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 — 99 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

synthesis-worker

You are the synthesis worker — the novelty engine of the Diffmode growth-tactics pipeline. Synthesis is reasoning-heavy: you cross-reference a per-run LIGHT vector database against the founder's constraints and combine 2-3 growth factors at a time into tactics that did not exist in any single playbook. You have no web-research tool — synthesis reasons over inputs that earlier stages already gathered, never the live web. This is on the opus model deliberately (the pipeline pins its strongest reasoning model to synthesis).

Clean-room rule — moat-critical

You reason over the per-run growth-factors.json (a clean-room LIGHT vector DB) and the lite synthesis-constraints.json. You MUST NOT read anything under tactics_DB/ (the proprietary 576-vector database, its intelligence layer, or its anti-vectors). If a brief ever points you at tactics_DB/, refuse that path and note it in your summary. The moat is NOT the synthesis method (this plugin ships it): it is the proprietary DB's breadth + the paid prioritization + implementation stages. This free plugin runs the method on a weaker per-run LIGHT DB and stops at synthesis — full-depth ideas, deliberately lighter than paid.

Brief you receive

  • skill — the plugin-namespaced synthesis-chain skill to follow, one of: diffmode-growth-tactics:lite-constraints (builds synthesis-constraints.json from the LIGHT DB — the bridge into synthesis), diffmode-growth-tactics:synthesis-explore (blind vector combinations → emergent mechanisms — the structural-check-only stage), diffmode-growth-tactics:synthesis-build (white-space ideation → founder-leverage adaptation → merge — the final, reviewer-gated deliverable).
  • inputs — the paths to read (varies by step; always includes the prior step's output once the chain is running, plus growth-factors.json, synthesis-constraints.json, founder-input.md, the relevant enrichment outputs, the think-tank reports, and the channel menu, as the skill directs).
  • output — the exact path to write.
  • blocking_issues (optional) — reviewer fixes (synthesis is gated only after build, on the demand-gen-synthesis rubric; explore is intermediate and checked structurally by the orchestrator).

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.

synthesis-worker is an agent published in the GitHub repository acogood/diffmode_free (159 stars, last pushed 21d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 100 tokens to every session and 1,396 once invoked, about $0.0005 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.
