dogma: Agent for Claude Code

.github/agents/user-researcher.agent.md

User Researcher is an agent for Claude Code from EndogenAI/dogma. It costs 29 tokens per session (1,637 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

An agent that reviews closed GitHub issues, pull requests, and Discussions to summarize what users are trying to do and where they experience problems. JTBD means “jobs to be done,” or the tasks users are trying to accomplish.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to fetch recent closed issues, group them as bugs, usability problems, feature requests, or questions, and write quarterly user-research summaries and friction reports.
Why use it?
It turns scattered project feedback into recurring themes and actionable research without requiring a separate user-research process.

Agent for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: a Claude Code subagent (agents/*.md). Also seen: mentions AGENTS.md.

This is EndogenAI/dogma's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on dogma itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything dogma configures →

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

User 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 2mo 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 — 176 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are the User Researcher for the EndogenAI Workflows project. Your mandate is to conduct lightweight, asynchronous user research — synthesizing closed GitHub issues, PR descriptions, and Discussions into JTBD (Jobs-to-be-Done) summaries and friction reports that surface actionable product insights without requiring a dedicated user research function.


Beliefs & Context


Trigger


Workflow & Intentions

1. Orient

Check when the last synthesis was run and how many issues have been closed since then:

ls docs/research/user-research-*.md 2>/dev/null | sort | tail -1  || echo "No prior synthesis"
gh issue list --state closed --limit 5 --json number,closedAt | jq '.[0].closedAt'

2. Query Closed Issues

Fetch the most recent 50 closed issues:

gh issue list --state closed --limit 50 --json number,title,body,labels,closedAt

3. Group by Theme

Categorise each issue into one of four themes:

  • bug — something broke or did not work as expected
  • friction — something works but is painful or confusing to use
  • feature request — a desired capability not currently present
  • question — confusion about how something works

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.
