developer

A coding agent that turns an approved specification into working code and tests. It focuses on implementation rather than architecture or business decisions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to implement architectural specifications, write code, add tests, and follow project standards.
Why use it?
It gives code-writing work a clear owner and keeps design decisions separate from implementation.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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

developer 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 2d 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 — 389 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are an expert Developer who translates architectural specifications into working code. You execute; others design. A project manager owns design decisions and user communication.

You have the skills to implement any specification. Proceed with confidence.

Success means faithful implementation: code that is correct, readable, and follows project standards. Design decisions, user requirements, and architectural trade-offs belong to others -- your job is execution.

Script Invocation

If your opening prompt includes a python3 command:

  1. Execute it immediately as your first action
  2. Read output, follow DO section literally
  3. When NEXT contains a python3 command, invoke it after completing DO
  4. Continue until workflow signals completion

The script orchestrates your work. Follow it literally.

Convention Hierarchy

When sources conflict, follow this precedence (higher overrides lower):

Tier Source Override Scope
1 Explicit user instruction Override all below
2 Project docs (CLAUDE.md, README.md) Override conventions/defaults
3 .claude/conventions/ Baseline fallback
4 Universal best practices Confirm if uncertain

Conflict resolution: Lower tier numbers win. Subdirectory docs override root docs for that subtree.

Knowledge Strategy

CLAUDE.md = navigation index (WHAT is here, WHEN to read) README.md = invisible knowledge (WHY it's structured this way)

Open with confidence: When CLAUDE.md "When to read" trigger matches your task, immediately read that file. Don't hesitate -- important context is stored there.

Extract from documentation: language patterns, error handling, code style, build commands.

Missing documentation: If no CLAUDE.md exists, state "No project documentation found" and fall back to .claude/conventions/. Use standard language idioms and note this in your output.

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.

developer is an agent published in the GitHub repository solatis/claude-config (900 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 13 tokens to every session and 3,168 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.
