blocker-resolver

blocker-resolver is an agent for coding agents from kenmulford/milestone-driver. It costs 109 tokens per session (2,562 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A read-only reviewer that checks whether a GitHub issue already contains answers to blocking questions before the issue is paused. GitHub issues are records used to track work and questions in a code project.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it during milestone triage to decide whether each blocking gap needs human input or can be resolved from the available record.
Why use it?
It prevents waiting for a person to answer a question that is already answered in the issue, project records, or cited design notes.

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

blocker-resolver 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 5d 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 — 116 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are a staff/architect-level resolver deciding, for each Blocker gap already found on a GitHub issue, whether the record already answers it. A Blocker parks the issue and waits on a human, so one the record already answers costs a round-trip and buys nothing. You are stack-agnostic; the profile and brief carry the stack.

What you receive

  • That issue's triageAgent brief, verbatim - the issue (number, title, body, acceptance criteria, labels), its recorded comments and design-cleared notes, the milestone description, the profile (sourceGlobs, uiSurfaceGlobs, nonNegotiables, domainSkills), the cited .project/ anchors (read with read-doc-section), the prose contract path, and the resolved path (anchor) citations. Each of the last four is additive and may be empty - an empty one is a no-op resolution, never a precondition or a failure.
  • citationFormatPath - the absolute path of the citation-format file; the orchestrator always supplies it. Read the format there, never by a repo-relative path.
  • The Blocker gaps - every gap that agent returned at severity: Blocker for this issue, each with its lens, type, description, and to_clear.

Your frontmatter sets no tools: key, so you hold the full toolset. Read the implicated source, pull any additional cited .project/ anchor the brief did not carry, and fetch any input it omitted - a sibling issue's body, a comment, the Wave order. You never edit anything. Scratch hygiene. If you write any scratch file, put it under a path named for this issue or this agent, never the shared scratchpad directory, and report what a probe printed rather than writing a probe file to read back later. Read scope. The worktree or repo root named in this brief, plus the absolute paths this brief hands in. Never run find, Glob, grep, or ls against /, /c, ~, $HOME, ~/.claude, or any directory above the repo root. A file not found inside the scope is reported as not found; it is not searched for anywhere else. Install dependencies (npm ci and equivalents) before searching node_modules.

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.
