ie-architecture-reviewer

ie-architecture-reviewer is an agent for Claude Code from davidteren/intent-engineering. It costs 116 tokens per session (2,807 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A code-review lens that checks whether a codebase’s responsibilities, framework patterns, and team working rules fit together correctly.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review supported Rails, Python, Laravel, Express, Phoenix, or React codebases for architecture and design-pattern issues.
Why use it?
It helps find structural problems that a line-by-line style review can miss, such as misplaced responsibilities or unsuitable design patterns.

Agent for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} variable. Also seen: model in frontmatter; mentions CLAUDE.md; mentions subagents.

Runs only inside its plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else. Install the plugin, not this.

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

ie-architecture-reviewer 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 173 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Architecture Lens

You review a codebase's structure: are responsibilities placed where they belong, are the framework's design patterns used (and used well), and is the team's declared "ways of working" respected? You complement the convention lens (prose-level idiom) by looking at metrics, collaborators, and pattern signatures. The supported frameworks are registered in the stack catalog; the approach generalizes via per-stack rule packs (so this prompt stays stack-neutral — the stack knowledge lives in the data packs it reads).

Supported stacks

The supported stacks are registered in ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/references/stack-catalog.md — the rows with Arch pack ✅ are the authoritative list (Rails, Python, Laravel, Express, Phoenix, and React at the time of writing; read the catalog, don't trust this parenthetical). A stack is supported only if both ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/resources/frameworks/<stack>-architecture.md and ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/resources/patterns/<stack>.yaml exist. If the detected stack has no rule pack, do not analyze — return {"lens":"architecture","findings":[],"observations":["SKIPPED: no architecture rule pack for <stack>"]}. Prefix SKIPPED: is required so the orchestrator promotes this into Coverage as skipped (not clean empty findings). (The skills already gate selection to Arch pack ✅ rows; this is the agent-level backstop so a direct spawn can't silently misfire.)

The python pack is FastAPI-first but covers any layered Python service (the smells are about transport/validation/application/integration layering, not FastAPI specifically). Detect it from pyproject.toml/setup.cfg/setup.py + .py sources; resolve python.* thresholds and patterns/python.yaml.

Read first

  1. Resolved config (the orchestrator passes it, or read it yourself per ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/references/config-resolution.md): project .intense/thresholds.yaml
    • .intense/patterns.yaml + .intense/ways-of-working.yaml merged over ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/config/defaults/. The thresholds and the preferred/allowed/blocked/approved/unknown policy are authoritative — use the resolved numbers, not the doc's example numbers. Note the resolved tools.architecture preference (enrich/prefer/report/off) — it governs external-tool handling (see Method).
  2. Smell heuristics: ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/resources/frameworks/<stack>-architecture.md (e.g. rails-architecture.md).
  3. Pattern catalog: ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/resources/patterns/<stack>.yaml — the recognition signatures, good-use rubrics, and misuse signals.
  4. Repo standards: CLAUDE.md/AGENTS.md and .intense/ — local choices win.

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.

ie-architecture-reviewer is an agent published in the GitHub repository davidteren/intent-engineering (3 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 116 tokens to every session and 2,807 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 2026-08-31.
