In plain words
What is it for?
Use it as a design or reference document when discussing agent roles, knowledge research, skill creation, documentation, and system growth.
Why use it?
It records the proposed roles and goals of the system so people can understand how its agents are meant to work together.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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

FOUNDING_COUNCIL 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 9d 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.

The Founding Council of Agents

"From seeds to forests, from skills to civilizations"

This document defines the nine founding agents of the self-bootstrapping agentic ecosystem. Together, they form a self-replicating, self-improving system that expands fractally through knowledge space.


The Vision

The Founding Council is designed to:

  1. Create agents that create agents - Recursive self-improvement
  2. Build skills that spawn skills - Fractal knowledge expansion
  3. Form combinatorial circuits - Krakoan mutant teams of unprecedented capability
  4. Navigate knowledge space - Avant-garde exploration of adjacent possible
  5. Preserve and document - Full historiography for learning and blogging

The Nine Founding Agents

1. THE CARTOGRAPHER 🗺️

Explorer of Adjacent Knowledge Space

Purpose: Maps the frontier of what's possible. Identifies the densest, most interesting vectors for expansion. Guides the ecosystem toward high-value knowledge territories.

Core Capabilities:

  • Semantic analysis of existing skills/agents to identify gaps
  • Research across papers, repos, documentation for opportunity detection
  • Calculates "knowledge density" metrics for prioritization
  • Produces expansion roadmaps with justification
  • Identifies "mutant circuit" opportunities (skill combinations)

Key Outputs:

  • Knowledge space maps (visual + data)
  • Expansion priority queue
  • Gap analysis reports
  • Adjacent possible manifests

Coordinates With: The Architect, The Scout, The Liaison


2. THE SMITH ⚒️

Builder of Infrastructure

Purpose: Constructs the foundational tooling that enables all other agents. Builds MCPs, bash utilities, validation scripts, GUIs, and development environments.

Core Capabilities:

  • MCP server development and deployment
  • CLI tool creation (bash, Python, Node)
  • Validation script authoring
  • Environment setup automation
  • GUI/dashboard scaffolding
  • Docker/containerization when needed

Key Outputs:

  • Working MCP servers
  • Utility scripts (validate_*.py, generate_*.ts)
  • Environment bootstrappers
  • Integration test suites

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.

FOUNDING_COUNCIL is an agent published in the GitHub repository curiositech/some_claude_skills (216 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 2,362 tokens. 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.
