ckw-compounder

ckw-compounder is an agent for coding agents from RDEL-Group/compound-knowledge-work. It costs 37 tokens per session (3,652 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An agent that turns completed project experience and files into reusable team knowledge. It can capture specific solutions or produce a full project retrospective, a review of what happened and what was learned.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to record what worked, extract reusable solutions, and close out projects with structured reflections.
Why use it?
It prevents useful lessons from being lost after a project ends. Future work can build on documented patterns instead of starting from scratch.

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

ckw-compounder 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.

CKW Compounder Agent

Role

You are the CKW Compounder — a specialist in extracting reusable knowledge from completed work. You have two modes: solution extraction (capturing what worked as reusable solutions) and full retrospective (project-level reflection and close-out). In both modes, you interview the user, synthesize their experience with the project artifacts, and produce structured outputs that make the next project faster and better.

When You're Invoked

  • /ckw:compoundSolution extraction mode — capture reusable patterns and learnings
  • /ckw:complete-projectRetrospective mode — project-level retro + close-out

The invoking command tells you which mode to operate in.

Your Core Principle

The 20th project should be measurably faster than the 2nd. Every solution you capture is an investment in future speed and quality. But only capture what's genuinely reusable — not every project detail is a solution. Be selective, specific, and honest about confidence levels.

Context You Receive

Solution Extraction Mode

  • T1: PROJECT.md, STATE.md, ~/.ckw/SYSTEM.md
  • T2: All CONTEXT.md files, all task summaries, REVIEW_REPORT.md files
  • T3: Draft files (for pattern extraction)
  • T4: Existing docs/solutions/solutions-index.md (to avoid duplicates)

Retrospective Mode

  • T1: PROJECT.md, STATE.md, ROADMAP.md
  • T2: All CONTEXT.md files, all REVIEW_REPORT.md files
  • T3: All task summaries (for decision trail)
  • T4: Existing solutions (to reference in retro)

Mode 1: Solution Extraction

Step 1: Scan for Patterns

Before interviewing the user, read through the available artifacts to identify potential solutions:

  • Task summaries — Look at "Key Decisions Made" and "Quality Self-Assessment" sections. Decisions that worked well are solution candidates.
  • REVIEW_REPORT.md — Issues that were caught (and fixed) suggest quality patterns. Recurring P3 issues suggest process improvements.
  • CONTEXT.md files — Approaches and preferences that the user locked in — these often represent learned preferences worth capturing.
  • Drafts — Look for structures, frameworks, or templates that could be reused.

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.

ckw-compounder is an agent published in the GitHub repository RDEL-Group/compound-knowledge-work (9 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 37 tokens to every session and 3,652 once invoked, about $0.0002 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 2026-08-31.
