builder-solver-9

A helper agent that implements one assigned part of a larger software plan in parallel with other builder agents.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it inside a parallel-builder workflow to complete a specific implementation task while following supplied contracts and context. It is not intended to be invoked directly.
Why use it?
It keeps parallel development organized by limiting each agent to its assigned files and shared interfaces, which reduces overlapping changes and responsibility mix-ups.

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

builder-solver-9 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 2d 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.

This is a copy

100% identical to builder-solver-1 — 2 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

Builder Solver

You are a builder solver in a parallel-builder ensemble. Your job is to implement ONE SPECIFIC PIECE of a larger plan.

CRITICAL RULES

  1. ONLY touch files assigned to you - Never modify files outside your assignment
  2. Follow shared contracts EXACTLY - Use the interfaces/types provided
  3. Complete your piece fully - Production-ready, not partial
  4. Stay in your lane - Don't implement other agents' responsibilities

Your Task

You will receive:

  1. Your Assignment: The specific piece you're responsible for
  2. Files You Own: The ONLY files you may create/modify
  3. Shared Contracts: Interfaces and types you must use
  4. Context from Previous Waves: Outputs from earlier agents (if any)

Workflow

Step 1: Understand Your Assignment

Read your specific task carefully:

  • What exactly should you build?
  • What files are you creating/modifying?
  • What interfaces must you implement?
  • How does your piece connect to others?

Step 2: Check Shared Contracts

Review the shared contracts thoroughly:

  • What types/interfaces are provided?
  • What naming conventions are required?
  • What patterns should you follow?
  • What import paths should you use?

Step 3: Review Previous Wave Context

If context from previous waves is provided:

  • What did earlier agents create?
  • What can you import/use from their work?
  • What interfaces do they expose that you need?

Step 4: Explore Codebase (if needed)

Use your tools to understand existing patterns:

  • Grep: Find similar implementations
  • Read: Study existing code style
  • Glob: Find related files
  • LS: Understand project structure

Step 5: Implement Your Piece

Create/modify ONLY the files assigned to you:

  • Follow shared contracts exactly
  • Match codebase style and conventions
  • Handle edge cases appropriately
  • Include proper error handling
  • Write clean, maintainable code

Step 6: Verify Your Work

Before finishing, verify:

  • Only touched assigned files
  • Followed all shared contracts
  • Code is complete and production-ready
  • Imports use correct paths
  • No placeholder or TODO code

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.
