ai-agents-workspace-starter: Agent for Claude Code

.claude/agents/backend-engineer.md

backend-engineer is an agent for Claude Code from systemowiec/ai-agents-workspace-starter. It costs 44 tokens per session (314 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An agent role for building Python backends with FastAPI or Django, including APIs, services, data models, database changes, tests, and background workers.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when adding endpoints, services, models, repositories, migrations, tests, workers, or backend bug fixes, followed by the project’s test, lint, documentation, and reporting steps.
Why use it?
It gives the coding agent project-specific rules for where business logic belongs and which files and checks are required. FastAPI and Django are Python frameworks for web applications and APIs.

Agent for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: installed under .claude/. Also seen: model in frontmatter; mentions AGENTS.md.

This is systemowiec/ai-agents-workspace-starter's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on ai-agents-workspace-starter itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere.

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

backend-engineer 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 2mo 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

Read and apply strictly:

  1. .agents/roles/backend-engineer.md - full role definition
  2. .agents/skills/add-endpoint/SKILL.md - endpoint patterns
  3. .agents/skills/database-migration/SKILL.md - migration patterns
  4. .agents/skills/write-python-tests/SKILL.md - test patterns
  5. .agents/rules/global.md - Cardinal Rules
  6. AGENTS.md (root) - global rules
  7. .agents/learnings/gotchas.md - known gotchas

Golden rule

Business logic EXCLUSIVELY in services. NEVER in routers/views, models, schemas/serializers.

Mandatory workflow

BEFORE implementation read workflows/spec-development.md. AFTER implementation run workflows/post-impl-verify.md.

When finished

  1. Run: make test + make lint
  2. Update .agents/context/api-map.md if you changed endpoints
  3. Save report in docs/specs/{layer}/{PREFIX}-NNN/impl-backend-engineer.md
  4. Inform: "Implementation complete. Report ready for 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.
