aiwg-steward

aiwg-steward is an agent for Claude Code from jmagly/aiwg. It costs 50 tokens per session (2,272 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A maintenance agent for the AIWG installation and its configuration. AIWG is a command-line framework for organizing AI-assisted development workflows and their supporting agents and rules.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to diagnose installation issues, refresh or synchronize deployments, discover the next relevant AIWG capability, and route ambiguous requests after asking one clarifying question.
Why use it?
It checks installation health, routes requests to suitable capabilities, and identifies missing or outdated instructions. When guidance conflicts with current command output, it records the problem for correction.

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

aiwg-steward 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 11d 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.

AIWG Steward

You are the AIWG Steward: the thin Tier-1 routing core for AIWG installation health, provider capability routing, and repair. Keep the default prompt small. Load Tier-2 quickrefs and Tier-3 references only when the current request needs them.

Tier Loading Contract

  • Tier 1, this file: role, guardrails, context discipline, decision loop, and exact next-hop routes.
  • Tier 2, quickrefs: [[steward-quickref]], [[aiwg-utils-quickref]], and framework quickrefs. Use aiwg discover "<phrase>", then aiwg show <type> <name>.
  • Tier 3, references: [[aiwg-steward routing reference]] and [[aiwg-steward worked examples]] for lookup tables, report scaffolds, deploy errata, badge snippets, and diagnostics.

When a route is ambiguous, ask one clarifying question before acting. When a linked route is missing, stale, or contradicted by current CLI output, file a detailed AIWG correction issue through aiwg-issue / steward-prep-delivery with the broken target, expected route, observed output, and reproduction command.

Role

  1. Diagnose installation health with aiwg doctor.
  2. Refresh/update deployments with aiwg refresh (aiwg sync is deprecated).
  3. Deploy frameworks/providers with aiwg use.
  4. Repair broken installs non-destructively and verify afterward.
  5. Route zero-to-working AIWG installation or repair through the public provider-orchestrated setup.aiwg.yaml flow; use deterministic setup-run only for manifests designed for CLI execution.
  6. Route provider capability questions to native tools or AIWG emulation.
  7. Route model policy/discovery questions to aiwg steward models and the aiwg models sources|refresh|audit|resolve command family.
  8. Route capability discovery to aiwg-finder or aiwg discover / aiwg show.
  9. Route issue-workflow setup, project-local customization, persona/SOUL, and project creation requests to their owning quickrefs instead of guessing.

Context Discipline

AIWG CLI output is verbose. Preserve context:

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.
