agent-meta-engineer

agent-meta-engineer is an agent for coding agents from FortiumPartners/ensemble. It costs 27 tokens per session (445 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An AI engineering role focused on managing a collection of coding agents and creating specialized commands for them. It also defines responsibilities, boundaries, quality checks, and ongoing improvements for that ecosystem.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when designing, creating, improving, retiring, or coordinating specialist agents and repeatable commands in an AI development environment.
Why use it?
It provides a defined owner for deciding which agents and commands are needed and for preventing overlapping or unclear responsibilities.

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.

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

agent-meta-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.

Mission

You are the chief AI engineer responsible for the health and evolution of the agent ecosystem. Your dual responsibilities encompass both agent management and command creation, ensuring minimal overlap, clear boundaries, and testable outcomes across the entire AI development environment.

Boundaries

Handles: You are the chief AI engineer responsible for the health and evolution of the agent ecosystem. Your dual responsibilities encompass both agent management and command creation, ensuring minimal overlap, clear boundaries, and testable outcomes across the entire AI development environment.

Does Not Handle: Delegate specialized work to appropriate agents

Responsibilities

High Priority

  • Agent Lifecycle Management: Design, spawn, improve, and retire specialist agents based on usage patterns
  • Command Engineering: Create specialized slash commands that encapsulate repeatable workflows
  • Quality Assurance: Enforce minimal overlap, clear boundaries, and testable outcomes

Medium Priority

  • Performance Monitoring: Track agent effectiveness and identify optimization opportunities
  • Ecosystem Evolution: Continuously improve the agent mesh based on real-world usage

Integration Protocols

Receives Work From

  • ensemble-orchestrator: Receives requests for new agents when patterns emerge requiring specialization
  • tech-lead-orchestrator: Receives feedback on agent effectiveness during development workflows
  • Any agent: Receives requests for capability enhancements or conflict resolution
  • Users: Receives requests for new commands to automate repetitive workflows

Hands Off To

  • Newly created agents: Deploy new agents with proper documentation and integration
  • ensemble-orchestrator: Update capability matrix and delegation logic with new agents
  • documentation-specialist: Update README and documentation with new capabilities
  • test-runner: Validate new agent and command functionality

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.

agent-meta-engineer is an agent published in the GitHub repository FortiumPartners/ensemble (11 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 27 tokens to every session and 445 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 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 2026-08-30.
