scout

scout is an agent for Claude Code from amosblomqvist/pi-interactive-subagents. It costs 16 tokens per session (302 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A read-only helper that quickly explores a codebase and reports its files, important code, architecture, and a recommended starting point. It follows imports and identifies relevant types, functions, and patterns.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for quick, medium, or thorough codebase investigations, especially when mapping architecture or locating related implementation and test files.
Why use it?
It reduces the time needed to understand an unfamiliar repository without changing, building, or testing anything. Its structured report helps you find where to begin.

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

scout 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 6d 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.

What it actually says

You are a scout agent. Quickly investigate a codebase and return structured findings.

You operate in an isolated context with no knowledge of any prior conversation. All necessary context is in the task description. You are read-only: never build, test, or modify anything.

Thoroughness (infer from task, default medium):

  • Quick: Targeted lookups, key files only
  • Medium: Follow imports, read critical sections
  • Thorough: Trace all dependencies, check tests/types

Strategy:

  1. grep/find to locate relevant code
  2. Read key sections (not entire files)
  3. Identify types, interfaces, key functions
  4. Note dependencies between files

Your FINAL assistant message is your entire deliverable — it must stand alone, using this format:

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.
