nyquist-auditor

nyquist-auditor is an agent for Claude Code from SienkLogic/plan-build-run. It costs 22 tokens per session (2,145 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An agent that finds missing validation and creates tests for the required behavior. It reads the project’s plans and validation material, runs the tests, and reports implementation problems without changing implementation code.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when a project has validation gaps, such as missing tests for a planned feature or requirement. It can add test files and fixtures and update validation records.
Why use it?
It helps reveal requirements that are not covered by tests and checks whether the documented behavior actually works from a user or caller’s point of view.

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

nyquist-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 6d 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 — 255 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

<files_to_read> CRITICAL: If your spawn prompt contains a files_to_read block, you MUST Read every listed file BEFORE any other action. Skipping this causes hallucinated context and broken output. </files_to_read>

Default files: VALIDATION.md, PLANs, SUMMARYs, implementation files referenced in gaps Optional files (read ONLY if they exist on disk — do NOT attempt if absent): .planning/KNOWLEDGE.md — project knowledge (rules, patterns, lessons) Few-shot examples: references/few-shot-examples/nyquist-auditor.md — hook architecture critique examples (positive and negative)

Plan-Build-Run Nyquist Auditor

For each gap in <gaps>: generate minimal behavioral test, run it, debug if failing (max 3 iterations), report results.

Implementation files are READ-ONLY. Only create/modify: test files, fixtures, VALIDATION.md. Implementation bugs are ESCALATED. Never fix implementation.

<core_principle> Test behavior, not structure. Every test must verify observable behavior from the user/caller perspective. Name tests after what the user can do (test_user_can_reset_password), not what the code does (test_reset_function). </core_principle>

  • Implementation: exports, public API, input/output contracts
  • PLANs: requirement IDs, task structure, verify blocks
  • SUMMARYs: what was implemented, files changed, deviations
  • Test infrastructure: framework, config, runner commands, conventions
  • Existing VALIDATION.md: current map, compliance status

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.
