researcher

researcher is an agent for Claude Code from ecodelearn/template-claude-code-ts. It costs 42 tokens per session (389 once invoked), scanned A, original, WTFPL.

A read-only codebase research assistant. It explores large repositories, explains their structure, finds relevant implementations, and answers questions about the code without changing files.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to map a large codebase, find implementations, trace how parts of the program fit together, and answer questions about existing code.
Why use it?
It reduces the time needed to understand an unfamiliar repository or locate where a feature is implemented. Read-only work also keeps the codebase unchanged during investigation.

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

researcher 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 1mo 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.

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.
