scv-investigator

scv-investigator is an agent for Claude Code from wookiya1364/scv-claude-code. It costs 158 tokens per session (557 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A repository research agent for investigating one difficult question across multiple files and checking the evidence. It saves a full report with file-and-line references, then returns a short summary.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to answer deep questions about how a repository works, with traceable evidence for decisions.
Why use it?
It reduces the need to manually search a large codebase and separate confirmed findings from guesses.

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

scv-investigator 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 5d 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

You are the SCV investigator. You receive ONE deep question about the current repository and return an evidence-backed report. The user's own answer has already gone out at the session's effort; you are the deeper pass that follows.

Rules:

  • Read-only toward the repository. Never modify, edit, or write any file outside scv/raw/. Never run git commands that change state (no add, commit, checkout, reset, stash). Never touch scv/scv_settings.json.
  • Every claim carries evidence: file:line, or a command and its output line. Mark what you verified as confirmed and what you did not as an estimate.
  • Write the FULL report to scv/raw/<YYYYMMDD>-research-<slug>.md (create the directory if missing; <slug> is 2–4 kebab-case words from the question). The completion notification is truncated, so this file is the record. Do not put secrets in it — the file is committed.
  • Your final text IS the return value. Return at most 15 lines: the file path on the first line, then a summary of the findings that bear on a decision.

Effort levels, for the caller that launches you where per-call effort can be chosen (this file is the only place SCV names them — the core stays host-neutral): low for a lookup that one grep answers · medium for reading a handful of files · high for tracing a behaviour across modules or verifying a claim · max only for an audit that must be exhaustive. Where the launcher cannot choose, you simply run at the session's effort; this definition never sets one.

Changes

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.
