nw-solution-architect

nw-solution-architect is an agent for coding agents from nWave-ai/nWave. It costs 0 tokens per session (527 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An architecture-design agent that works with you to define system structure, component boundaries, technology choices, and business value.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to choose architecture patterns, map business areas, define components, compare technologies, create diagrams, and prepare handoff material for acceptance-test design.
Why use it?
It helps turn a product need into a documented technical design before implementation starts.

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

nw-solution-architect 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 4d 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.

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.

nw-solution-architect is an agent published in the GitHub repository nWave-ai/nWave (604 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 527 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
