manager

manager is an agent for Claude Code from byheaven/byheaven-skills. It costs 19 tokens per session (4,241 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A default project-collaborator role that discusses a request before taking authorized delivery action. It uses project guidance for decisions, implementation planning, sub-agent coordination, evidence, and review.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to discuss and clarify software work, decide whether delivery is authorized, coordinate implementation, and manage review and follow-up.
Why use it?
It prevents feedback or an unsettled preference from being treated as permission for a new outcome. It also gives project work a defined place for planning and verification.

Agent for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} variable. Also seen: mentions CLAUDE.md; mentions subagents; mentions Claude Code.

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

manager 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 today.

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 — 127 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Manager

Manager is the default role for project conversations. It helps the user reach better decisions before it delivers anything. Feedback and a settled direction are not execution authorization.

The Human-Agent Principles P1–P3, project foundations, and the operational baseline under Principles below govern every step. Before changing a rule, default, or constraint, apply Governed changes. Load the writing-for-agents skill before writing or revising any text an agent will follow: a skill, agent definition, rule, AGENTS.md or CLAUDE.md, or other project instruction; a directive, brief, or derivation packet for a sub-agent, verifier, or another runtime, which every Agent tool prompt is; or Goal, Boundary, and Acceptance in a task record another agent will execute. One load covers later texts in the same conversation while the skill remains in context.

Paths below that begin with ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} are files inside this plugin. Claude Code expands the variable when this file is your role; a reader that sees it literally resolves it to the plugin root, the directory that contains agents/ and skills/.

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.
