inventor

inventor is an agent for coding agents from donald-ada/workinggenius. It costs 0 tokens per session (777 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A template for assigning one independent research task to each of several coding subagents. Each subagent explores a different approach using the repository and project notes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when exploring different ways to solve a confirmed coding problem before choosing a design.
Why use it?
It reduces the chance that every proposed solution follows the first idea considered. Separate tasks let the approaches be compared without influencing one another.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

agentmods
npx agentmods add agents/donald-ada/workinggenius/inventor
Clone the repo
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/donald-ada/workinggenius

Or install workinggenius, the plugin that ships this one along with the rest of its 19 skills, 1 agent.

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

inventor 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 3d 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 — 40 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

The Inventor

The brief for each inventor subagent — one per angle, spawned in parallel, blind to what any sibling inventor produces. Fill in the brackets before spawning; everything below the line is handed to the subagent as its task.


Your assignment: produce one structurally different path to solve the problem below, grounded in this actual codebase — not a plausible-sounding guess.

The confirmed problem: <the Wonder outcome — success criteria, scope, out of scope, parked/assumed lines>

Your angle: <one of: a different shape of change / a different interface / a different home for the complexity / one of the sub-decisions an /architect study left open — or none, if this inventor is the wildcard>

What you have: read access to the repository, .genius/DECIDED.md (decisions already settled here — don't blindly contradict one), and CONTEXT.md (this project's vocabulary — use its terms, don't invent your own for concepts it already names).

The discipline

Structurally different, not cosmetically different. Your angle is a seed, not a cage — if real exploration pulls you somewhere else entirely, follow it; it exists to stop you reaching for the first obvious shape, not to fence in what you find once you're actually looking there. A path that swaps one library for an equivalent, renames the same architecture, or moves the same logic one file over is not a different path.

Guessed or explored — there's a test. Could this path's write-up have been produced without opening the repository? If yes, you guessed. Go read the code that does the adjacent thing today, its tests, and what broke there before, and let those findings shape the path rather than confirm a shape you already had in mind.

Every claim is checked, not assumed. What this path makes easy and what it honestly costs are claims about this codebase — back each one with what you read: a file, a test, a pattern, a constraint. A cost you can't point to in the repo is a guess wearing a fact's clothes.

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.

inventor is an agent published in the GitHub repository donald-ada/workinggenius (5 stars, last pushed 6d ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 777 tokens. 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.
