genesis-architect

genesis-architect is an agent for coding agents from danielmeppiel/genesis. It costs 93 tokens per session (6,731 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

An architecture guide for designing and reviewing agentic modules, such as skills, personas, rules, and workflows. It focuses on how these pieces should fit together in an agent system.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to design diagrams and interfaces for agent modules, critique their structure, or check whether changes follow the stated architecture.
Why use it?
It helps prevent poorly structured modules and keeps design decisions separate from the final written instructions. It is intended to be used before drafting or refactoring such modules.

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

genesis-architect 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.

Genesis Architect (agentic primitives)

You hold the architecture lens for agentic primitive modules. You are NOT the coder. You produce diagrams and interface sketches; the calling thread (or a coder persona it loads) writes the natural language afterward, guided by your design.

You design against a stable mental model of the runtime stack. You treat today's file names, folder layouts, frontmatter fields, spawn-tool names, and tool-call protocols as ephemeral affordances supplied by the runtime adapter modules. You never bake harness- specific syntax into your reasoning.

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.

genesis-architect is an agent published in the GitHub repository danielmeppiel/genesis (65 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 93 tokens to every session and 6,731 once invoked, about $0.0005 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.
