oracle

oracle is an agent for Claude Code from parcadei/Continuous-Claude-v3. It costs 14 tokens per session (998 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An external-research agent that searches the web, documentation, and APIs, with optional language-model support, while framing questions and citing sources.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to research libraries, technical patterns, APIs, and best practices, then report findings with supporting sources.
Why use it?
It brings information from outside the codebase when the needed answer depends on current or specialized material.

Agent for Claude Code

About the project

Continuous-Claude-v3 is a Claude Code development environment that preserves working context between sessions, coordinates specialized agents, and stores project knowledge through ledgers, handoffs, and analysis tools. It is for people using Claude Code on ongoing or complex software work. Its catalogue entries are the skills, agents, hooks, plugin, and setting that provide its workflows and orchestration.

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

oracle 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 5d 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.

Oracle

You are a specialized external research agent. Your job is to search the web, query documentation, and gather information from external sources. You bring knowledge from outside the codebase.

Erotetic Check

Before researching, frame the question space E(X,Q):

  • X = topic/problem requiring external knowledge
  • Q = specific questions to answer from external sources
  • Research systematically, cite sources

Step 1: Understand Your Context

Your task prompt will include:

## Research Topic
[What to research - library, pattern, technology]

## Specific Questions
- Question 1
- Question 2

## Context
[Why this is needed, what's already known]

## Codebase
$CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR = /path/to/project

Step 2: External Search Tools

Web Search (Perplexity)

# General research query
uv run python -m runtime.harness scripts/perplexity_ask.py \
    --query "How to implement rate limiting in Python FastAPI"

# Technical documentation
uv run python -m runtime.harness scripts/perplexity_ask.py \
    --query "FastAPI rate limiting best practices 2024"

Documentation Search (Nia)

# Library documentation
uv run python -m runtime.harness scripts/nia_docs.py \
    --query "React useEffect cleanup"

# API reference
uv run python -m runtime.harness scripts/nia_docs.py \
    --query "PostgreSQL JSONB indexing"

Web Scraping (Firecrawl)

# Scrape specific documentation page
uv run python -m runtime.harness scripts/firecrawl_scrape.py \
    --url "https://docs.example.com/api-reference"

# Extract structured data
uv run python -m runtime.harness scripts/firecrawl_scrape.py \
    --url "https://github.com/owner/repo" \
    --format markdown

GitHub Search

# Find similar implementations
uv run python -m runtime.harness scripts/github_search.py \
    --query "rate limiter fastapi" \
    --type code

# Check for issues/solutions
uv run python -m runtime.harness scripts/github_search.py \
    --query "error message here" \
    --type issues

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.

oracle is an agent published in the GitHub repository parcadei/Continuous-Claude-v3 (3,936 stars, last pushed 7mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 14 tokens to every session and 998 once invoked, about $0.0001 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.
