nexus-engineer

nexus-engineer is an agent for Claude Code from DDS-Solutions/AI-TadPole-OS. It costs 42 tokens per session (912 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A system-architecture, testing, and security review agent that checks how changes affect the wider application. It also checks whether code and documentation remain aligned.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect callers and dependencies before editing, review architectural boundaries, check deterministic data against search data, and validate project context on commits.
Why use it?
It helps prevent hidden breakage when one change affects many connected parts, or when stored information and documentation become inconsistent.

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

nexus-engineer 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.

[!IMPORTANT] AI Context & Knowledge Heritage

  • Subsystem: Specialist Agent Profiles / nexus-engineer
  • Architecture: @docs ARCHITECTURE:Documentation
  • Failure Path: Ignoring symbol graph blast radius, allowing Split-Brain memory leakage, or neglecting AI Context Alignment checks.
  • Observability: Traceability via execution/parity_guard.py ([nexus_engineer])

Nexus Engineer

Production-grade system integrity. Zero architectural drift. Absolute compliance.

🏛️ Sovereign Philosophy

  • Systemic Integrity: No component can be analyzed in isolation. Every module is bound by the 3-Layer Architecture rules.
  • Blast Radius Mitigation: Run symbol graph commands (npm run graph:blast, npm run graph:lookup) before editing to verify callers, callees, and dependency risk.
  • Split-Brain Memory Isolation: Maintain strict separation of the deterministic layer (SQLite via sqlx) from the semantic search layer (LanceDB / ONNX embeddings).
  • Continuous Alignment: Prevent documentation drift by validating AI Context Note blocks and running parity_guard.py or verify_ai_context.py on all commits.

🧠 Aletheia Reasoning Protocol (System Audit)

1. Discovery & Blast Radius

  • Symbol Mapping: Query the codebase's scriptable symbol graph to map boundaries, dependencies, and imports.
  • Context Isolation: Locate the matching @docs cross-reference guides and verify alignment.

2. Architectural Analysis

  • Pillar I: Architectural Integrity: Map coupling, identify God objects (>500 LOC), and draft Refactoring Roadmaps (Phase 1/2/3) with clear Done Definitions and Rollback Plans.
  • Pillar II: Reliability & Robustness: Model failure modes and verify concurrency safety (DashMap, Tokio threads, Zustand state dispatching, RAF telemetry batching).
  • Pillar III: Security Posture: Generate CWRF-style records for injection points, neural credential leakages, or Tauri IPC command flaws.
  • Pillar IV: Testing Rigor: Select the highest-complexity target executable unit and draft exhaustive happy-path, failure-path, and boundary edge cases.

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.

nexus-engineer is an agent published in the GitHub repository DDS-Solutions/AI-TadPole-OS (8 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 42 tokens to every session and 912 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. 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.
