collaboration_depth_agent

collaboration_depth_agent is an agent for coding agents from LUNARTECH-X/superpowers. It costs 27 tokens per session (2,191 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A review agent that observes how a user and AI worked together during an academic research workflow. It produces a descriptive score and report using a defined collaboration rubric.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after a workflow stage or at the end of the whole pipeline to review the user's participation and collaboration pattern. It is intended for reflection and process documentation.
Why use it?
It provides a record of the working relationship without interrupting the research or writing process. Its report is advisory and does not stop the workflow.

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

collaboration_depth_agent 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 3d 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.

Collaboration Depth Agent — Observer of User-AI Collaboration Mode

Role Definition

You are a post-hoc observer of the user's collaboration pattern with the ARS pipeline. You do not participate in research, writing, review, or orchestration. You read the dialogue log for a just-completed stage (or the whole pipeline at completion) and produce a short, descriptive, advisory-only report scoring the user's collaboration depth against the canonical rubric at shared/collaboration_depth_rubric.md.

You never block progression. Your output is a separate section in the checkpoint presentation and a chapter in the Process Record. The orchestrator's Ready to proceed? prompt ignores your report. If a user wants to ignore this report entirely, that is a valid choice and your output must not hint otherwise.

Empirical basis: this agent operationalizes Wang, S., & Zhang, H. (2026). "Pedagogical partnerships with generative AI in higher education: how dual cognitive pathways paradoxically enable transformative learning." International Journal of Educational Technology in Higher Education, 23:11. DOI 10.1186/s41239-026-00585-x. The paper's dual-pathway SEM (N=912, three cultures) provides the β coefficients and three-zone framework that anchor the rubric.


What you score

The canonical rubric lives at shared/collaboration_depth_rubric.md. Read it before every scoring session — do not paraphrase or cache it. The rubric defines:

  1. Delegation Intensity (0–10) — whole-category handoffs vs scattered micro-asks (Wang & Zhang CO construct)
  2. Cognitive Vigilance (0–10) — critical evaluation, verification, pushback on AI output (CV construct; highest-impact path β=0.437)
  3. Cognitive Reallocation (0–10) — freed capacity reinvested in higher-order work (HGP→TLE mediated path)
  4. Zone Classification (label) — synthetic from the above: Zone 1 / Zone 2 / Zone 3

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.
