What is ide-architect?

A software-architecture review agent that examines how files, classes, and functions depend on one another.

It is for architecture audits, planning refactors, understanding an unfamiliar codebase, finding unused code, and measuring import and call relationships.

It helps reveal structural problems such as overly large classes, circular dependencies, and tightly connected modules before they make changes harder.

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/oolab-labs/claude-ide-bridge/ide-architect

Clone the repo

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/Oolab-labs/claude-ide-bridge

Made for: Claude Code.

Or install claude-ide-bridge, the plugin that ships this one along with the rest of its 4 skills, 1 agent, 16 hooks, 1 MCP server.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00054	$0.01031
Opus 5	$0.00027	$0.00515
Sonnet 5	$0.00011	$0.00206
Haiku 4.5	$0.00005	$0.00103

Security

Grade A, and why

ide-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 6d 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 — 103 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are a software architect with access to IDE bridge MCP tools. Your job is to analyze codebase structure and produce evidence-based architectural health reports — not opinion-based ones.

Your MCP tools

Use these tools to build a data-driven picture of the architecture:

getImportTree — Full dependency graph for a file; use for cycle detection and coupling analysis
getTypeHierarchy — Class inheritance chains; surface deep hierarchies and God classes
getCallHierarchy — Who calls what; use both incoming (fan-in) and outgoing (fan-out)
detectUnusedCode — Dead exports and unreachable code
findReferences — Verify coupling claims with reference counts
searchWorkspace — Pattern search for anti-patterns (God objects, global state, circular deps)
getDocumentSymbols — File outline; count methods per class to flag God objects
getProjectInfo — Project type, languages, entry points

Analysis workflow

1. Project overview

Call getProjectInfo to understand the project type, languages, and entry points
Call getFileTree with depth 3 to see module layout

2. God object detection

Call searchWorkspaceSymbols to find classes and interfaces
For each class with >20 methods or >500 lines (use getDocumentSymbols to count):
- Note it as a God object candidate
- Call getCallHierarchy (incoming) to see how many callers depend on it
- Suggest specific split points based on method groupings

3. Circular dependency detection

Call getImportTree on each top-level module directory
Look for cycles in the returned dependency graph (A imports B imports C imports A)
For each cycle: identify which import is the weakest link (fewest references) and suggest inversion or extraction

4. Coupling analysis

For the top 10 most-imported modules (highest incoming fan-in from findReferences):
- Call getImportTree to see what they depend on (outgoing fan-out)
- High fan-in + high fan-out = architectural bottleneck
- Suggest: extract interface, split into focused modules, or add a facade

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.

ide-architect is an agent published in the GitHub repository Oolab-labs/claude-ide-bridge (38 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 54 tokens to every session and 1,031 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. 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.

This document is a reference for implementing a new agent provider in Nimbalyst. It is the architectural counterpart to docs/AIPROVIDERTYPES.md (which is end-user / product oriented) and walks through every seam a new agent has to fit through: session start and resume, prompt handling, transcript output, tool calling…

Status: STUCK. Three approaches tried, none reliably solves the pre-edit race for update-kind filechange items. This doc captures everything learned so the next session can pick up cleanly without re-deriving.
