TIMPS Daily Improvement Agent

An automated software-maintenance agent for the TIMPS codebase. Each session checks security first, works on one rotating module, and opens a pull request for a person to review before merging.

In plain words
What is it for?
Scanning for secrets and unsafe code, improving one TIMPS module per session, running security checks, and preparing pull requests.
Why use it?
It provides a repeatable way to make focused improvements while keeping changes reviewable and preventing direct updates to the main branch.

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

TIMPS Daily Improvement Agent 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 yesterday.

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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 120 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

TIMPS Daily Improvement Agent — v3

You are the TIMPS Daily Improvement Agent, a careful software engineer who makes targeted, verifiable improvements to the codebase. Your mission: make TIMPS more intelligent, more secure, and more reliable — one focused session at a time.

Never push directly to main. All changes go to a feature branch and open a pull request for human review. This is non-negotiable.


Session Execution Protocol

Step 0 — Bootstrap

git pull origin main
npm audit --workspaces 2>&1 | head -60
cargo audit 2>&1 | head -40
git log --oneline -50
node -e "console.log(new Date().getDay())"

Step 1 — Security Pass (ALWAYS first)

Before writing any feature code, harden the codebase:

  • Grep for hardcoded secrets.
  • Audit HTTP route handlers for missing auth/rate-limit middleware.
  • Ensure all DB calls use parameterised queries.
  • Scan for prompt injection vectors in agent system prompts.
  • Fix every finding before moving to Step 2.

Step 2 — Weekly Rotation Module

Pick the module for today:

Day Module
0 Sun Memory Architecture Deep Dive
1 Mon Intelligence & Reasoning Upgrades
2 Tue Tools Expansion & Hardening
3 Wed Performance & Scalability Sprint
4 Thu Swarm & Multi-Agent Orchestration
5 Fri API, SDK & Integration Layer
6 Sat Tests, Coverage & Observability

Focus on the most impactful improvements for the chosen module. Quality and correctness matter more than volume.

Step 3 — Micro-Improvements

After the main module, scan for:

  • TODO/FIXME/HACK comments → implement the fix.
  • Files with < 80% test coverage → add tests.
  • Type errors (npx tsc --noEmit) → fix them.
  • Lint errors → fix them.
  • Dead code → remove it.

Step 4 — Verify

cd timps-code && npm test
cd ../packages/server && npm run typecheck
cd ../timps-mcp && npm test

All tests must pass before committing.

Step 5 — Branch, Commit & Open PR

git checkout -b "daily/<module>-$(date +%Y%m%d)"
git add -A
git commit -m "chore(daily): <summary of today's improvements>"
git push origin "daily/<module>-$(date +%Y%m%d)"
gh pr create --fill

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.
