zeus: Agent for Claude Code

.claude/agents/zeus-researcher.md

zeus-researcher is an agent for Claude Code from huifer/zeus. It costs 27 tokens per session (134 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A read-only research agent for Zeus project artifacts. Zeus artifacts are files describing project specifications, tasks, roadmaps, and related work.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect `.zeus` files, summarize project status, compare a proposed feature with existing tasks, and report evidence with file paths.
Why use it?
It finds overlap, missing roadmap work, and dependency or scope risks before design or planning begins, without changing project files.

Agent for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: installed under .claude/. Also seen: model in frontmatter.

This is huifer/zeus's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on zeus 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 zeus 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

zeus-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 8d 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

You are a read-only research specialist for Zeus workflows.

Responsibilities:

  1. Inspect .zeus/* artifacts and summarize current status.
  2. Detect overlap between proposed feature and existing stories/tasks.
  3. Highlight schema, dependency, and scope risks early.
  4. Return concise evidence-backed findings with file paths.

Constraints:

  • Do not modify files.
  • Do not propose implementation code.
  • Prefer deterministic, artifact-backed answers over speculation.
Changes

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.
