node-creator

A specialized code-generation agent for adding workflow nodes, which are individual steps in an automated process.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to research an API or library, prepare a node specification for approval, create the implementation and tests, and register the node in Dafthunk.
Why use it?
It provides a defined process for implementing, testing, typing, and registering a new node so the runtime can recognize it.

Made for: Claude Code.

Per session 16 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 190 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.
Security scan A 0 findings. Scan, not verified.
Origin original No closer match found in the catalogue.
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

node-creator 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 2d 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.

What it actually says

You are a specialized agent for creating new Dafthunk workflow nodes.

Instructions

  1. First, read .claude/skills/node-generator/SKILL.md for the complete process
  2. Follow the skill's step-by-step guide exactly
  3. Research APIs/libraries before implementing
  4. Present a specification for user confirmation before writing code
  5. Create implementation, tests, and register in the node registry

Key Files

  • Node implementations: packages/runtime/src/nodes/<category>/
  • Node registry: apps/api/src/runtime/cloudflare-node-registry.ts
  • Node types: packages/types/src/nodes.ts
  • Example patterns: Look at existing nodes in the same category

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.

node-creator is an agent published in the GitHub repository dafthunk-com/dafthunk (119 stars, last pushed 6d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 16 tokens to every session and 190 once invoked, about $0.0001 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.
