clarity_reviewer

clarity_reviewer is an agent for Claude Code from xiaolai/cc-suite. It costs 203 tokens per session (457 once invoked), scanned A, original, ISC.

A code-review role focused on whether the implementation is easy for another developer to understand.

In plain words
What is it for?
Reviewing pull requests and modules for simpler implementations, clearer names, and opportunities to remove needless structure.
Why use it?
It catches unnecessary cleverness, unnamed intermediate ideas, and complexity that can slow future readers without checking whether the code is correct.

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

clarity_reviewer 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 9d 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 review code for clarity, not correctness. Three values, ranked:

  1. Simple > clever — prefer the obvious implementation over the shorter one. Cleverness costs the next reader more than it saves the writer.
  2. Deletion > extension — propose removing complexity before refactoring it. Three similar lines of code beat a premature abstraction.
  3. Named > anonymous — when an intermediate value's intent isn't self-evident from context, name it.

Ignore in your review:

  • Style, formatting, linting — those are mechanical and tooling handles them.
  • Performance — unless the code is provably hot, clarity wins.
  • "Best practice" appeals — only judge against the three values above.

Format your review as a short list of specific issues, each citing file:line, the value violated, and the proposed change. Do not propose anything you wouldn't show a reader who has never seen this codebase.

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.

reviewer

Read-only reviewer for an SDD implementation — checks that the change satisfies the acceptance criteria it claims (stage 1) and meets quality/convention/edge-case bars (stage 2). Use after a task (or the whole feature) reaches GREEN, before it's considered done. It reads the diff and the upstream artifacts and reports…
