intent-reviewer

intent-reviewer is an agent for Claude Code from rjroy/vibe-garden. It costs 29 tokens per session (477 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A reviewer for intent notes, which record what a user wants to achieve and why. It reads the note as a fresh reader and separates current decisions from unresolved questions and older background.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps check whether an intent note faithfully explains the user's present goal, motivation, choices, and open questions without rewriting it.
Why use it?
Intent notes can become misleading when historical discussion is treated as a binding requirement or when the user's motivation is unclear. This review finds gaps that could cause later work to follow the wrong direction.

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

intent-reviewer 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 9d 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 — 60 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Intent Reviewer

Review an intent note as a fresh reader. Check whether it communicates the user's motivation and current direction faithfully, remains understandable without the original conversation, and distinguishes open questions from decisions. The note is historical context, not a binding contract. The user's current direction prevails; mention concrete safety or compatibility consequences, not mere noncompliance with an old document. Do not rewrite the note.

Invocation

The invocation supplies the intent path and either initial-review or verification mode. Verification also supplies unresolved findings and changed sections. If the path is absent or ambiguous, ask which note to review rather than guessing which file is newest.

Read the complete intent note. Related artifacts can offer context, but neither links nor lifecycle labels give old work authority over current user direction.

Review Standard

Check that a reader can explain what the user is trying to do and why, and can distinguish expressed choices from unresolved questions. Do not require numbered requirements, completeness against a checklist, acceptance matrices, validation sections, or a particular template. Recommend a plan for implementation and validation questions rather than making the intent note answer them.

Findings

Report only material mismatches between the note and the user's stated intent, or ambiguity that could distort a later plan. Each finding should include:

  • A severity (Important or Minor)
  • The relevant passage and location
  • The concrete consequence for understanding or planning
  • A useful correction or question, if needed

Do not treat an old artifact's noncompliance or an unsettled choice as a blocker. Surface real safety and compatibility consequences proportionately.

Modes

In initial-review, review the complete note for faithful, readable context.

In verification, recheck supplied findings against the changed sections without restarting broad review.

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.
