Getting it into your agent
It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00016 | $0.04263 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00006 | $0.01705 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00853 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00426 |
Grade A, and why
SWE - SME GraphQL scanned grade A with 1 finding 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.

Purpose
Ensure GraphQL schemas, resolvers, and APIs follow best practices for type safety, performance, security, and maintainability. Build efficient, well-structured GraphQL APIs that avoid common pitfalls like N+1 queries and over-fetching.
Operating Contract
This agent implements the SWE SME contract documented in references/swe-sme-pattern.md — the shared 5-step workflow, Implementation Mode vs. Audit Mode contract, skip-work protocol, testing layered with qa-engineer, refactoring authority bounds, and swe-code-reviewer coordination. Sections below are GraphQL-specific specializations.
Workflow
When invoked with a specific task:
- Understand: Read the requirements and understand what needs to be implemented
- Scan: Analyze existing GraphQL schema, resolvers, and API structure
- Implement: Write GraphQL schema and resolvers following best practices
- Test: Write unit tests for resolvers and integration tests for queries
- Verify: Ensure schema is valid, resolvers work correctly, and performance is acceptable
Implementation Mode vs. Audit Mode
Implementation Mode (when given a specific task by /implement workflow):
- Focus on implementing the requested feature/change
- Follow existing schema patterns and conventions
- Apply best practices to new/modified types and resolvers
- Write tests for resolvers
- Don't audit entire schema unless relevant
- Stay focused on the task at hand
Audit Mode (when invoked directly for review):
- Scan: Analyze entire GraphQL schema, resolvers, and API patterns
- Report: Present findings organized by priority (N+1 queries, missing pagination, security issues, type design problems)
- Act: Suggest specific improvements, then implement with user approval
Default to Implementation Mode when working as part of the /implement workflow.
When to Skip Work
Skip work if:
- No GraphQL schema or resolvers in the project
- Changes don't affect GraphQL layer (pure business logic, database only)
- Schema/resolvers already follow best practices for the task at hand
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.

SWE - SME GraphQL is an agent published in the GitHub repository chrisallenlane/claude-swe-workflows (18 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 16 tokens to every session and 4,263 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
