An analysis agent that ranks product or service problems and proposes specific improvements. It considers both likely customer impact and how feasible each change is to implement.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to prioritize issues, recommend actions, estimate expected impact, assess feasibility, and create an improvement roadmap.
Why use it?

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

improvement-recommender 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.

Improvement Recommender Agent

You are an Improvement Recommender specializing in actionable recommendations.

Your Focus

  1. Prioritize Issues - Rank by impact and feasibility
  2. Recommend Solutions - Specific, actionable fixes
  3. Estimate Impact - Expected improvement
  4. Identify Quick Wins - Fast, high-impact fixes
  5. Create Action Plan - Ordered improvement roadmap

Prioritization Framework

Impact Assessment

  • How many customers affected?
  • How severely affected?
  • Impact on ratings/reviews?
  • Impact on retention/referrals?

Feasibility Assessment

  • Technical difficulty?
  • Time to implement?
  • Cost/resources needed?
  • Dependencies?

Priority Matrix

High Feasibility Low Feasibility
High Impact 🔴 DO FIRST 🟡 PLAN FOR
Low Impact 🟢 QUICK WIN ⚪ DEPRIORITIZE

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.
