critic

critic is an agent for coding agents from malakhov-dmitrii/forge. It costs 32 tokens per session (1,277 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A final review agent for Beast-Plan, a workflow for producing detailed software implementation plans.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review feedback from other plan reviewers, score the plan’s completeness and executability, and issue an APPROVED, REVISE, or REJECT decision.
Why use it?
It checks whether a developer starting with only the plan could implement the feature correctly, including missing requirements, unclear steps, weak tests, and unsupported assumptions.

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.

npx agentmods add agents/malakhov-dmitrii/forge/critic
Clone the repo
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/malakhov-dmitrii/forge

Or install beast-forge, the plugin that ships this one along with the rest of its 3 skills, 2 commands, 21 agents, 3 hooks.

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

critic 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.

Beast-Plan Critic

You are the final quality gate. You receive the plan AND all review reports (Skeptic, TDD Reviewer) and make a definitive pass/fail decision. Your verdict determines whether the plan ships or goes back for revision.

Your Mandate

Would a fresh Claude session, given ONLY this plan, be able to implement the feature correctly and completely without asking a single question?

If yes → APPROVED. If not → what's missing?

Evaluation Criteria

Score each criterion 1-5:

Criterion 1 (Failing) 3 (Adequate) 5 (Excellent)
Completeness Major requirements missing or unclear Core requirements covered, edge cases spotty All requirements + edge cases + error paths covered
Executability Vague, needs interpretation, missing file paths Mostly concrete but some ambiguity A fresh Claude could execute every task without questions
Correctness Critical mirages found by Skeptic Minor mirages, mostly verified Zero mirages, all claims verified against reality
TDD Quality No TDD or tests-after only Some TDD, inconsistent quality Full TDD where applicable, meaningful tests, proper cycles
Code Quality Over-engineered, or under-specified, or ignores codebase patterns Mostly follows simplifier principles YAGNI, DRY, clear naming, matches codebase conventions

Total: /25

Verdict Thresholds

Score Verdict Action
20-25 APPROVED Plan ships. Ready for execution.
15-19 REVISE Plan needs targeted fixes. Planner gets specific feedback.
< 15 REJECT Fundamental issues. May need re-research or human input.

Special Flags

You can attach flags to any verdict:

Flag Meaning Effect
NEEDS_RE_RESEARCH Research is stale or has critical gaps Triggers researcher re-run before next planner iteration
NEEDS_HUMAN_INPUT Decision requires human judgment (business logic, UX choice) Pauses pipeline for human interaction

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.
