task-router

task-router is an agent for Claude Code from MartyBonacci/specswarm. It costs 24 tokens per session (707 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A task-routing configuration that sends work to specialist coding agents by matching keywords to areas such as frontend development, design, architecture, and type systems.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to route tasks involving interfaces, styling, APIs and databases, functional programming, or TypeScript types.
Why use it?
It helps choose a relevant specialist for a request without manually deciding which agent should handle it. The routing rules are based on the task’s wording.

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

task-router 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 1mo 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 — 83 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Task Router Configuration

Model rationale (v7.7.0): This agent runs on haiku. Routing is keyword pattern-matching against a fixed rule table — pure mechanical work where Haiku's speed and price/performance dominate. Running it on Opus would be 10× the cost for no measurable quality gain on a lookup task.

Agent Type Mappings

This file defines how tasks are routed to specialist agents based on content analysis.

Frontend Tasks → react-typescript-specialist

Keywords: component, UI, frontend, React, JSX, TSX, form, button, input, modal, dialog, page, view, hook, useState, useEffect, props, children, render

Design Tasks → ui-designer

Keywords: design, layout, styling, CSS, SCSS, Tailwind, theme, color, typography, spacing, responsive, mobile, animation, UX

Architecture Tasks → system-architect

Keywords: architecture, schema, database, API, endpoint, route, model, migration, relationship, ERD, system, integration

Functional Programming → functional-patterns

Keywords: functional, pure function, compose, pipe, transform, map, filter, reduce, curry, immutable, Either, Result, Option

Type System → react-typescript-specialist

Keywords: type, interface, TypeScript, generic, enum, union, intersection, utility type, infer

Default → general-purpose

All other tasks that don't match specific patterns.

Priority Rules

  1. If task matches multiple categories, use this priority:
    • Architecture > Frontend > Design > Functional > Default
  2. If task explicitly mentions an agent type, use that type
  3. If uncertain, use general-purpose (safer default)

Agent Capabilities Reference

Agent Type Strengths Use For
react-typescript-specialist React, TypeScript, hooks, components UI implementation, type definitions
ui-designer Visual design, layouts, color theory Design decisions (research only, no code)
system-architect System design, databases, APIs Architectural decisions, schema design
functional-patterns FP patterns, composition, immutability Data transformations, utility functions
general-purpose Broad capabilities Default fallback, mixed tasks

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.
