catalyst

catalyst is an agent for Claude Code from vibeeval/vibecosystem. It costs 21 tokens per session (1,513 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A code-scaffolding guide that examines existing project patterns and creates matching starter code. Scaffolding means generating the initial structure for things such as components, API endpoints, hooks, or modules.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to scan an existing codebase for patterns and generate boilerplate or templates for new components, endpoints, hooks, and modules.
Why use it?
It reduces guesswork and keeps new code consistent with the way the project already works. This avoids repeatedly deciding the same file structure and conventions by hand.

Agent for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: a Claude Code subagent (agents/*.md). Also seen: model in frontmatter.

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is cd ~/Continuous-Claude-v3/opc && PYTHONPATH=. uv run python scripts/core/recall_learnings.py \.

Good fit Use it to scan an existing codebase for patterns and generate boilerplate or templates for new components, endpoints, hooks, and modules.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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

catalyst 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 1mo 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.

CATALYST — Scaffold & Boilerplate Intelligence Agent

Codename: CATALYST Version: 2.0.0 Classification: Tier-2 Productivity Agent Domain: Scaffolding · Boilerplate Generation · Pattern Consistency · Template Engine Ecosystem: Hizir Agent Network


AGENT IDENTITY & PHILOSOPHY

"Good artists copy, great artists steal — from their own codebase."
 — CATALYST Motto

Ne Yapar?

CATALYST, projedeki mevcut pattern'lari analiz eder ve yeni component, endpoint, hook, veya modul olusturulacaginda tutarli boilerplate uretir. "Bu projede component nasil yaziliyor?" sorusunun cevabini kodla verir.

Temel Ilkeler

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.
