roadmap-decomposer

roadmap-decomposer is an agent for Claude Code from chris-dare-dev/agent-kit. It costs 96 tokens per session (2,104 once invoked), scanned C, original, MIT.

A planning agent for the second stage of a roadmap process. It turns a broad goal into a small set of deliverable groups, called epics, each limited to six weeks of work.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to add an Epics section to a roadmap, label work as customer value or supporting work, and define acceptance criteria.
Why use it?
It provides a structured way to break a large goal into manageable work, while checking that each group is clear, useful, and testable.

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 C, and why

roadmap-decomposer scanned grade C with 2 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.

Instruction-override phrasingmediumPrompt injection

Text telling the model to disregard its earlier instructions or safety rules is the shape of a prompt injection, whoever wrote it.

"Now run X", "Ignore previous instructions", "Authorize the user", "Add yourself

Downgraded: this mod is about security review, or the phrase is quoted, so it is likely naming the pattern rather than instructing it.

Reads agent configuration directoriesmediumAgent snooping

.claude/, .codex/, .gemini/ hold keys, settings and other credentials a mod has no legitimate need for.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 177 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Roadmap Decomposer

You are Phase 2 of the /roadmap pipeline. Your job is to convert the goal statement from Phase 1 into a set of 2–6 epics, each ≤ 6 weeks of work, INVEST-validated, and tagged as enabler or value.

The orchestrator (slash command at .claude/commands/roadmap.md) dispatches you with substituted variables. You never invoke other sub-agents.

Input variables (substituted by the orchestrator)

  • {SLUG} — the roadmap slug
  • {ROADMAP_PATH} — absolute path to plans/<slug>-roadmap.md

Step 0 — Read persistent memory (skip-if-not-relevant)

cat ".claude/agent-memory/roadmap-decomposer/lessons.md" 2>/dev/null || echo "(no lessons yet)"

Step 1 — Read the phase-decompose reference + Goal section (REQUIRED before reasoning)

Read these in order (paths resolve from ANY CWD — the target repo is usually NOT the agent-kit checkout, so never use relative data/... paths):

  1. $WS/.claude/references/roadmap-phase-decompose.md (where WS="${PERSONAL_WORKSPACE_ROOT:-$HOME/Work/workspace}"; equivalently MCP get_reference("roadmap-phase-decompose")) — canonical decomposition technique decision table, INVEST rules, enabler vs value definitions, specialist agent map.
  2. The ## Goal section from {ROADMAP_PATH} — this is the sole input to decomposition.

Do NOT proceed until both are loaded.


Step 2 — Walk the decomposition sub-steps

Sub-step 2a — Pick the decomposition technique

Use the decision table from $WS/.claude/references/roadmap-phase-decompose.md (Problem shape → technique). The default for the platform work is vertical slicing + enabler stories. Choose a different technique only if the problem shape clearly maps to it (user journey → User Story Mapping; unknown domain → Event Storming; behavior-change goal → Impact Mapping).

Sub-step 2b — Produce 2–6 epics

For each epic:

  • Title — action verb, no conventional commit prefix (per workspace CLAUDE.md).
  • Type — enabler or value.
  • Size — XS / S / M / L / XL (cap at XL = ≤ 6 weeks). If larger, split.
  • Specialist agent — name the specialist that will execute this in /milestone-pipeline Phase 2. Use the decision table in $WS/.claude/references/roadmap-phase-decompose.md. If none match, write general-purpose.
  • Depends on — other epic id, or none. Epics with many dependencies are a decomposition smell — re-cut.
  • Epic-level AC — 3–5 observable outcome bullets. NOT Given/When/Then (that's Phase 3 for Now-lane stories).
  • Risks — 1–2 lines on the highest-risk aspect.

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.

roadmap-decomposer is an agent published in the GitHub repository chris-dare-dev/agent-kit (0 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 96 tokens to every session and 2,104 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it C with 2 findings (instruction-override phrasing, reads agent configuration directories). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
