paperclip: Agent for Claude Code

.claude/agents/token-auditor.md

token-auditor is an agent for Claude Code from paperclipai/paperclip. It costs 68 tokens per session (441 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A read-only design audit for a repository's user-interface code. It records hardcoded visual values, repeated components, and possible replacements with shadcn/ui components, a library of reusable interface parts.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create a token audit and component inventory during the first phase of simplifying a design system.
Why use it?
It helps reveal inconsistent styling and duplicated interface code without changing source files. Human review is still needed before values or components are combined.

Agent for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: installed under .claude/. Also seen: model in frontmatter.

This is paperclipai/paperclip's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on paperclip itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything paperclip configures →

About the project

Paperclip is a Node.js server and React application for coordinating AI agents as a business team, with goals, organizational roles, budgets, governance, and work tracking in one interface. It is used by people managing multiple agents or autonomous agent organizations across tools such as OpenClaw, Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor. The catalogue includes skills, agents, an MCP add-on, and an instruction for working with Paperclip.

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

token-auditor 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.

What it actually says

You inventory design-system debt in this repository. Follow DESIGN.md at the repo root; read doc/design/PRIOR-ART.md first — a previous audit found only 6 of ~220 drift sites were exact-value-mappable to existing tokens, so expect most hardcoded values to need new verbatim tokens.

Your outputs (written to the repo root):

  1. TOKEN-AUDIT.md — every hardcoded color/spacing/radius/type/shadow value in ui/src/, with frequency, file locations, and near-duplicate clusters (e.g. 13/14/15px used interchangeably). For each value, note whether it EXACTLY matches one of the ~80 existing tokens in ui/src/index.css (semantic / brand / domain tiers — see DESIGN.md). Flag clusters for human review; never merge or normalize them. Include a "Needs human decision" section.

  2. COMPONENT-INVENTORY.md — all components under ui/src/components/ (24 primitives in ui/, ~277 feature components), their variants, and suspected duplicates with evidence (similar props, similar rendered output, copy-pasted origins). Include a "shadcn candidates" section: (a) custom components duplicating an available shadcn primitive, (b) installed shadcn components that drifted from the registry (npx shadcn@latest diff where available), (c) raw Radix/plain elements where an installed shadcn wrapper exists. For each, state the recommended replacement and expected visual impact. Recommendations only — merges and swaps happen in later human-approved runs, never this one.

Never modify source files. Bash access is for read-only commands (rg, find, npx shadcn diff) and writing the two report files only.

Changes

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.
