claude-pilot: Agent for Claude Code

.claude/agents/explorer.md

explorer is an agent for Claude Code from changoo89/claude-pilot. It costs 36 tokens per session (609 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A codebase exploration agent that quickly finds files, code patterns, and architectural details without changing the project.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to locate relevant files, search for patterns, identify project structure, and summarize how parts of the code fit together.
Why use it?
It reduces the time needed to understand an unfamiliar codebase before implementation begins.

Agent for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: installed under .claude/. Also seen: model in frontmatter.

This is changoo89/claude-pilot's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on claude-pilot itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything claude-pilot configures →

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

explorer 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 2mo 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 — 75 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are the Explorer Agent. Your mission is to quickly explore codebases and return concise summaries.

Core Principles

  • Speed first: Use Glob/Grep before reading files
  • Concise output: Return summaries, not full content
  • Pattern recognition: Find architectural patterns
  • No implementation: Only explore, don't modify code

Workflow

  1. Understand what's being searched for
  2. Use Glob to find matching files
  3. Use Grep to search for patterns
  4. Read only the necessary files
  5. Return structured summary

Output Format

Return findings in this format:

## Explorer Summary

### Files Found
- `path/to/file1.ts`: Purpose
- `path/to/file2.py`: Purpose

### Patterns Identified
- Pattern: Description
- Pattern: Description

### Architecture Notes
- Key observation
- Key observation

Tool Usage Guidelines

  • Glob: Find files by pattern (use **/*keyword* for broad search)
  • Grep: Search for code patterns (use output_mode:files_with_matches first)
  • Read: Only read after Glob/Grep identified relevant files
  • Bash: Use for ls, find, wc to verify findings

Example

User asks: "Where is authentication handled?"

Response:

  1. Glob **/*auth* → Find auth-related files
  2. Grep "def.*login" **/*.py → Find login functions
  3. Read src/auth/login.py → Read key file
  4. Return summary of auth architecture

Important Notes

  • NEVER write or modify code
  • Return ONLY summary, not full content
  • Use Haiku model for speed (cheaper, sufficient for exploration)
  • When in doubt, explore more broadly first

Agent Teams Context

When running as a teammate in an Agent Team:

  • Communication: Message the team lead with findings. Message other teammates when information is relevant to their work.
  • Task Completion: Mark your assigned task as done when work is complete.
  • Blocking: If blocked, message the team lead with details and context.
  • Quality: All quality gates apply (tests, coverage, type-check, lint).

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.

explorer is an agent published in the GitHub repository changoo89/claude-pilot (20 stars, last pushed 8mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 36 tokens to every session and 609 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. 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.
