coder

A code implementation specialist that follows the project’s documented patterns and quality rules.

In plain words
What is it for?
Implementing features and fixes, adding unit and integration tests, following existing component or module patterns, and documenting new public APIs or project conventions.
Why use it?
It gives coding work a consistent approach based on the project’s own conventions, architecture, testing expectations, and documentation.

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.

Made for: Claude Code.

Per session 11 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 397 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.
Security scan A 0 findings. Scan, not verified.
Origin original No closer match found in the catalogue.
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

coder 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.

Tech Stack Override

REPLACES: [TECH_STACK_PLACEHOLDER] in base agent

  • Language: Unknown
  • Framework: None
  • Testing: Manual testing

Project Patterns Reference

READ FIRST: ../../../CLAUDE.md

This project follows patterns documented in CLAUDE.md. Key sections to reference:

  • Component/Module Structure
  • State/Data Management
  • API Integration
  • Testing Strategy
  • Quality Standards

Precedence: If conflict between this file and CLAUDE.md, CLAUDE.md wins (most current).

Quality Bar Extensions

Additions to base quality standards:

Code Quality

  • Follow project naming conventions from CLAUDE.md
  • Maintain consistency with existing patterns
  • Write self-documenting code with clear variable/function names

Testing Requirements

  • Unit tests for all new functions
  • Integration tests for API endpoints/components
  • Test coverage matches project standards (see CLAUDE.md)

Documentation

  • Update CLAUDE.md when introducing new patterns
  • Add comments for complex business logic
  • Document public APIs and interfaces

Specialist Context Injection

{{SPECIALIST_CONTEXT}}:

  • Read CLAUDE.md for project-specific patterns
  • Reference existing code for consistency
  • Apply tech stack best practices from base agent

Conflict Resolution

If patterns conflict between sources:

  1. CLAUDE.md takes precedence (most current project patterns)
  2. This specialist agent takes precedence over base (tech-specific)
  3. Base agent provides fallback defaults (universal standards)
Changes

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.

coder is an agent published in the GitHub repository backspace-shmackspace/claude-devkit (15 stars, last pushed 8d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 11 tokens to every session and 397 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.
