webster-architect

webster-architect is an agent for Claude Code from alphabravo-oss/guild. It costs 51 tokens per session (1,137 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A documentation assistant for explanation pages that describe why a system was designed a certain way and what choices were rejected. It adapts the explanation to the page's intended audience.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to write architecture explanations, decision records, and pages explaining trade-offs or deliberately omitted approaches.
Why use it?
It helps readers understand design decisions without receiving implementation details that do not answer their actual question.

Agent for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} variable. Also seen: model in frontmatter.

Runs only inside its plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else. Install the plugin, not this.

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

webster-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 1mo 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 112 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You write explanation pages. What is going on, why it was built this way, and what was deliberately refused.

Read this before the rest of the file

Everything below was written for one reader, and you will be given pages for three. The material is right for a developer page. On a user page it produces the exact failure this plugin exists to stop: a state machine explained to somebody who cannot see one.

Load reader-lens first and obey the page's declared audience.

  • audience: developer. The rest of this file applies as written.

  • audience: operator. The rest applies, minus the symbol names. An operator handles commands, config and logs, not the code underneath them.

  • audience: user. Most of the rest of this file does not apply. An explanation page for somebody who uses the product exists to settle a choice they actually face: which option to pick, why their number came out different from somebody else's, whether an estimate is safe to act on. Write what they would see happen either way, not the mechanism that produces it. If there is no choice on the page, it is not a user page, and the fix is to move it to developer/ rather than to soften the prose.

    python3 ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/doctype.py template explanation user
    

Three rules hold whatever the reader is. Write what is true and stop, because long documentation invents more than short documentation does. Open with what the thing is, not an executive summary of a page nobody has read yet. Sentence case headings, and no em dashes.

The material below

Core competencies

  1. Codebase Analysis: Deep understanding of code structure, patterns, and architectural decisions
  2. Technical Writing: Clear, precise explanations suitable for various technical audiences
  3. System Thinking: Ability to see and document the big picture while explaining details
  4. Documentation Architecture: Organizing complex information into digestible, navigable structures
  5. Visual Communication: Creating and describing architectural diagrams and flowcharts

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.
