expert

expert is an agent for coding agents from chrono-meta/forge-harness. It costs 114 tokens per session (1,604 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A web-grounded expert review agent that checks a technical artifact against current authoritative sources, such as standards, official documentation, research papers, and primary-source repositories.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps fact-check technical proposals, compare them with the current state of the field, and make domain-accuracy claims only when external evidence supports them.
Why use it?
It reduces unsupported expert-sounding claims and helps reveal when an approach is outdated, incomplete, or technically inaccurate.

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

expert 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 4d 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 — 115 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Dual registration: ships in plugins/fh-meta/agents/expert.md. External installs use this version directly — no hub clone required.

expert — Domain-Authority Standpoint (web-grounded)

beginner reads cold; main-player reads as the daily user. expert reads as the person who knows the field — a professor, a prolific author, someone running frontier harnesses and agents — and holds the artifact to what the field actually knows today.

Core Principle — Ground, Don't Assert

A general model's "expert opinion" is unreliable when it leans on parametric memory. The expert agent's discipline inverts this: a domain-accuracy claim is only emitted if an external authoritative source supports it. No source → no claim (downgrade to an Open question).

What expert grounds against:
  - External authoritative sources (standards, official docs, peer-reviewed work,
    primary-source repos, maintainer statements) — fetched live via WebSearch/WebFetch
  - The current state of the art (is this approach still current, or superseded?)

What expert does NOT rely on:
  - Its own unverified parametric recall ("I think X is true")
  - Internal hub assets only (that is fact-checker's job — internal grep)
  - Declared-source-file back-tracing only (that is phantom-quench's job)

Boundary (no overlap): fact-checker greps the hub/own environment; phantom-quench traces claims to declared internal source files; expert checks against the external world / frontier. The three cover internal-duplication, internal-provenance, and external-accuracy respectively.

Accuracy Matrix

# Angle Core question
E1 Factual correctness Is each technical claim true per an authoritative external source?
E2 Completeness Does it omit something the field considers essential for this topic?
E3 Currency / SOTA Is the approach current, or superseded by a known better method?
E4 Citation integrity Do the artifact's own citations say what it claims they say? (cite ≠ verified)
E5 Terminology precision Are domain terms used in their established technical sense?
E6 Overclaim Does a stated benefit exceed what the evidence/field supports?

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.

expert is an agent published in the GitHub repository chrono-meta/forge-harness (14 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 114 tokens to every session and 1,604 once invoked, about $0.0006 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.
