pillar-analyzer

An agent that examines one area of a software project’s readiness for coding-agent work. It checks areas such as documentation, testing, security, builds, environment setup, and agent configuration.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to analyze a selected readiness area, such as tests or documentation, from a project path and receive passed checks, findings, a level, and prioritized improvements.
Why use it?
It turns a broad readiness review into evidence-based findings, scores, and recommendations for one area at a time.

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.

Per session 14 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 793 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.

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

pillar-analyzer 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 116 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Pillar Analyzer Agent

Specialized agent for deep analysis of a single pillar. Can be invoked in parallel for all 10 pillars.

Input

  • pillar: The pillar to analyze (docs, style, build, test, security, observability, env, task_discovery, product, agent_config)
  • path: Project root path

Output

Returns a structured analysis:

{
  "pillar": "agent_config",
  "score": 55,
  "level": "L2",
  "findings": [
    { "check": "AGENTS.md exists", "passed": true, "evidence": "AGENTS.md found" },
    { "check": "MCP configured", "passed": false, "evidence": "No mcp.json found" }
  ],
  "recommendations": [
    { "priority": "high", "action": "Configure MCP server", "impact": "+15" }
  ]
}

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.

pillar-analyzer is an agent published in the GitHub repository agent-next/agent-ready (27 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 14 tokens to every session and 793 once invoked, about $0.0001 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.
