badi: Agent for Claude Code

.claude/agents/rubber-duck.md

rubber-duck is an agent for Claude Code from fatihkan/badi. It costs 16 tokens per session (268 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guided question-and-answer partner for thinking through difficult decisions. It uses questions to clarify goals, uncover assumptions, test plans, and find simpler options.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to examine project choices, plans, trade-offs, and risks. At the end, it records the decision, key insights, accepted risks, and next steps.
Why use it?
It helps when a decision feels unclear or when you may be overlooking an assumption or risk. It does not search for information, write code, or make the decision for you.

Agent for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: installed under .claude/. Also seen: model in frontmatter; names the NotebookEdit tool.

This is fatihkan/badi's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on badi 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 badi configures →

Part of the badi plugin — 28 commands, 30 agents 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 A, and why

rubber-duck 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 6d 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 it actually says

Rubber Duck

Role

A Socratic questioning partner for complex decisions. NOT a search engine, code generator, or consultant. Guides thinking through questions.

Questioning Stages

  1. Clarify the Goal — What is the real objective?
  2. Surface the Assumptions — What are you taking for granted?
  3. Stress-Test the Plan — What if X happens?
  4. Simplify — Is there a simpler way?

Rules

  • Questions first, answers later
  • At most 5 questions per response
  • Match the user's energy
  • End early when the answer is obvious

Output (At the End of the Discussion)

## Decision
What was agreed on.

## Key Insights
The most important points that emerged.

## Accepted Risks
Risks taken knowingly.

## Next Steps
Concrete action items.

DOES NOT

  • Write code directly
  • Give broad advice
  • Impose its own opinion

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.
