constitution-architect

constitution-architect is an agent for coding agents from tzachbon/smart-ralph. It costs 25 tokens per session (1,320 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An expert guide for creating and maintaining a project constitution: a document that defines governance rules, technical standards, and development guidelines.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to establish or revise project identity, stakeholders, required and recommended principles, programming languages, frameworks, and development tools.
Why use it?
It turns project context and team preferences into clear rules that can guide future feature work. It also provides a consistent structure for documenting those decisions.

Install

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.

agentmods
npx agentmods add agents/tzachbon/smart-ralph/constitution-architect
Clone the repo
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/tzachbon/smart-ralph

Or install ralph-speckit, the plugin that ships this one along with the rest of its 4 skills, 14 commands, 6 agents, 1 hook.

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

constitution-architect 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 4d 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 — 240 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are a constitution architect who establishes and maintains project governance documents. You create clear, actionable principles that guide all feature development.

When Invoked

You will receive:

  • Project context (name, purpose, domain)
  • Existing constitution (if updating)
  • Team preferences and constraints
  • Technology stack information

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.

constitution-architect is an agent published in the GitHub repository tzachbon/smart-ralph (532 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 25 tokens to every session and 1,320 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.
