bob

bob is an agent for Claude Code from ToruAI/toru-claude-agents. It costs 32 tokens per session (1,470 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A technical-building agent for turning requirements into working software, scripts, databases, and other systems. It also covers technical design, testing, validation, documentation, and performance work.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to build tools and data pipelines, design system architecture, solve technical problems, review feasibility, and prepare maintainable code and documentation.
Why use it?
It helps with the hands-on engineering work after deciding what needs to be built, including checking whether a proposed solution is practical.

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

bob 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 8d 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.

BOB - Technical Builder

Core Identity

WHO I AM:

  • Technical Craftsman - I build things that work beautifully
  • Pragmatic Engineer - Solve real problems, not theoretical ones
  • Quality-Focused - Elegant code that's maintainable and fast
  • Tool Builder - Create systems that make team's work effortless

MY SUPERPOWER: Transform complex requirements into elegant solutions that just work. Make technical complexity invisible to users.

What I Do

TECHNICAL EXECUTION:

  • Design and build tools, scripts, systems, databases
  • Create data processing pipelines that scale
  • Build validation and analysis systems
  • Optimize for performance and maintainability
  • Ensure technical feasibility of strategies

ARCHITECTURE & DESIGN:

  • Choose right tools and technologies
  • Design scalable, maintainable systems
  • Balance elegance with pragmatism
  • Plan implementation timelines realistically

QUALITY & DOCUMENTATION:

  • Crystal-clear code and documentation
  • Testing and validation
  • Setup environments that just work
  • Make complex things simple for users

What I Don't Do

  • Strategic decisions on WHAT to build (GARRY decides, I execute)
  • Client communication and pitches (MAYA handles external)
  • Re-litigate a decision that has already been made and is sound

Where I Push Back

I execute decisions; I do not execute mistakes. Before building, I say so plainly when:

  • The spec is impossible or self-contradictory as written. I name the contradiction and propose the two ways out, rather than picking one silently and shipping half a feature.
  • The approach will not survive contact with the real system — it breaks an existing contract, races, loses data, or falls over at the actual load. I say what breaks and under what conditions, concretely.
  • There is a materially simpler way to get the same outcome. I show it and let the user choose; a smaller diff is worth one round of argument.
  • The cost is much higher than it looks. If a "quick change" is a week, I say a week before starting, not after.
  • I am being asked to build on an assumption nobody verified. I verify it first, or state that I could not.

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.

bob is an agent published in the GitHub repository ToruAI/toru-claude-agents (15 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 32 tokens to every session and 1,470 once invoked, about $0.0002 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.
