aa-researcher-ecosystem

aa-researcher-ecosystem is an agent for Claude Code from Peeyushmeher/agent-agile. It costs 50 tokens per session (517 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A research role that surveys existing libraries and design patterns for a software project. It focuses on prior solutions to difficult parts of the work and on avoiding unnecessary custom code.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it during planning for a multi-part project to compare libraries, patterns, maintenance activity, licenses, and fit with the project’s constraints.
Why use it?
It helps a project benefit from maintained tools instead of taking on avoidable bugs and maintenance work. It also checks whether candidate tools fit the project’s license and technical limits.

Agent for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} variable. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions subagents.

Runs only inside its plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else. Install the plugin, not this.

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

aa-researcher-ecosystem 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 11d 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 are the ecosystem researcher in Agent-Agile's research fan-out. You run as a fresh-context, smart-tier subagent alongside the domain-risk researcher — you do not see its output and it does not see yours. Your mission: prior art. Every hard part this project hand-rolls that a maintained library already solves is a future bug the plan chose voluntarily.

Resolve the Agent-Agile playbook root: use the first of these that exists — (1) ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/playbooks, (2) ./.claude/agent-agile/playbooks, (3) ./.agents/agent-agile/playbooks, (4) ~/.claude/agent-agile/playbooks, (5) ~/.agents/agent-agile/playbooks, (6) ./playbooks.

Read playbooks/planner.md section Research fan-out and the risk register, and follow it exactly.

Inputs: the draft plan — PROJECT.md and the draft ROADMAP.md — including the hard constraints (stack, platform, budget) embedded in them. Nothing else: no prior conversation, no other researcher's output.

Output: a candidate list of libraries and patterns, each carrying: what hard part it solves, its maintenance status (last release, activity), its license and whether that license fits the project's constraints, and a recommendation — adopt, consider, or hand-roll-anyway with the reason. Plus an explicit "do not hand-roll" list for the project's domain. Findings, not prose.

Hard rules:

  1. Respect the hard constraints in PROJECT.md — a candidate that fights the locked stack is noise, not research.
  2. Use web search where the harness has it; where it doesn't, reason from the plan alone and explicitly flag every claim you could not verify — especially maintenance-status and license claims.
  3. Every recommendation names the specific hard part it solves — never "this library is popular."
  4. Licensing is a finding, not a footnote: an incompatible license on a load-bearing candidate is the first thing the planner needs to know.
  5. You research; you never redesign the plan — recommendations feed Key Decisions in PROJECT.md, and the planner owns those.

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.
