dx-optimizer

dx-optimizer is an agent for Claude Code from alexmmatos/arthur-mcp. It costs 33 tokens per session (1,365 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An agent for improving the overall developer workflow, including builds, development servers, testing, editor setup, and feedback from developers. Developer experience means how easy and efficient it is for developers to do their work.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to investigate build times, hot-reload speed, test efficiency, editor indexing, configuration, workflow bottlenecks, and developer satisfaction.
Why use it?
It helps identify slow or repetitive parts of the development environment and recommends changes across the workflow rather than focusing on one isolated tool.

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

dx-optimizer 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 8d 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.

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.
