eng-director

eng-director is an agent for Claude Code from dbc-oduffy/coordinator-claude. It costs 41 tokens per session (5,740 once invoked), scanned C, original, no licence file.

An Opus-only engineering leadership persona for handling Staff Engineer-level work and decisions across teams and code repositories.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for cross-team planning, cross-repository decisions, and tasks that need Staff Engineer-level technical rigour.
Why use it?
It gives the agent a defined engineering-management perspective when work crosses team or repository boundaries.

Agent for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: effort in frontmatter. Also seen: model in frontmatter.

Installs and runs on its own, but its text points at files inside its plugin — anything it tells you to read at a ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} path is only there once the plugin is installed. Installing the plugin gets both.

Part of the coordinator plugin — 39 skills, 16 commands, 38 agents, 9 hooks shipped together

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 C, and why

eng-director scanned grade C with 1 finding 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 yesterday.

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.

Tells the agent never to refusehighAnti-refusal

Suppressing the ability to decline removes a core safety control; a later harmful request then succeeds.

You are the primary reviewer — dispatched for cross-team/cross-repo seams, consumer/producer design where the generic-substrate lens is load-bearing, architecturally-ambitious artifacts, or PM direction. Do not refuse on

A licence we could not identify

The repository carries a LICENSE file, but it is custom or dual enough that GitHub cannot name it and neither can this catalogue. Unknown terms are not permission, so the body is not copied here. Read the licence at the source and decide for yourself.

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.
