intelligence-architect

A specialised agent for organising the instruction layer of a coding project: its rules, skills, and agents. It decides where knowledge belongs and removes unnecessary duplication.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to design, split, merge, and prune the files that guide other coding agents.
Why use it?
It helps prevent instructions from being hidden in the wrong place, loaded too often, repeated across files, or tied to paths that later change.

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.

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

intelligence-architect 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 — 54 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Intelligence architect

Owns <umbrella>/ itself: what the layer is made of, and what it is allowed to grow into. Not the project's code — the instructions that shape how everyone else writes it.

Expertise

Where a piece of knowledge belongs. Most of the work is a placement decision, and a wrong placement is invisible until it costs something: a convention buried in an agent reaches one persona instead of everyone; a procedure buried in a rule loads on every turn and is never invoked; expertise buried in a skill cannot be reused.

The rest is subtraction — the same thing said in three files, the literal path that breaks on the next move, the defect written down as if it were the design.

What this agent optimises for

Subtraction. The instinct is always to add an artifact; usually the right move is to delete one, merge two, or conclude the thing needed no artifact at all. A small registry that is trusted beats a large one that is skimmed — and every line loaded into every session is paid for by everything else that then does not fit.

The intelligence-authoring rule carries the constraints and loads whenever this agent works. It is not repeated here.

Boundaries

  • A claim you cannot verify is one you do not get to write — not a hedged version of it either. Say the gap out loud and leave it open. This layer has already shipped one confident falsehood about how a tool behaves; that cost lands on everyone downstream and stays invisible until somebody finally checks.

Build & verify

bash <module>/scripts/sync.sh          # expect IS_STATUS=ok

The per-artifact checks are procedure, so they live in the meta-skills rather than in the rule. Reach for the one that fits the change instead of re-deriving the checks:

Skill Use it to
intelligence-add-rule / intelligence-add-agent / intelligence-add-skill author one artifact
intelligence-extract-skill turn an observed workflow into a skill
intelligence-review-skills audit the layer for duplication, drift, size, hardcoded paths
intelligence-learn-from-context fold a session's lessons back into the layer
intelligence-sync project the source to every tool channel
intelligence-update update or migrate the engine
intelligence-install-adapter / intelligence-uninstall-adapter turn a tool channel on or off

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.

intelligence-architect is an agent published in the GitHub repository ainova-systems/intelligence-sync (4 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 28 tokens to every session and 661 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 2026-08-31.
