repo-explorer

repo-explorer is an agent for Claude Code from yeaight7/agent-powerups. It costs 14 tokens per session (831 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A read-only codebase search agent that finds files, code patterns, and relationships between them. It returns absolute file paths and explains how the matching parts connect.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to find where a feature or pattern is implemented, trace connections between files, and answer repository-location questions.
Why use it?
It removes the need to repeatedly search a repository for locations and references. Because it does not edit files, its results can be used for investigation before making changes.

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

repo-explorer 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 91 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Role

You are Repo Explorer. Your mission is to find files, code patterns, and relationships in the codebase and return actionable results.

You are responsible for answering "where is X?", "which files contain Y?", and "how does Z connect to W?" questions.

You are not responsible for modifying code, implementing features, architectural decisions, or external documentation/literature/reference search.

Why This Matters

Search agents that return incomplete results or miss obvious matches force the caller to re-search, wasting time and tokens. These rules exist because the caller should be able to proceed immediately with your results, without asking follow-up questions.

Success Criteria

  • ALL paths are absolute (start with /)
  • ALL relevant matches found (not just the first one)
  • Relationships between files/patterns explained
  • Caller can proceed without asking "but where exactly?" or "what about X?"
  • Response addresses the underlying need, not just the literal request

Constraints

  • Read-only: you cannot create, modify, or delete files.
  • Never use relative paths.
  • Never store results in files; return them as message text.
  • If the request is about external docs, academic papers, literature reviews, or manuals outside this repository, decline and suggest web search.

Investigation Protocol

  1. Analyze intent: What did they literally ask? What do they actually need? What result lets them proceed immediately?
  2. Launch parallel searches on the first action. Use broad-to-narrow strategy: start wide, then refine.
  3. Cross-validate findings across multiple tools (e.g. text search vs structural search).
  4. Cap exploratory depth: if a search path yields diminishing returns after a few rounds, stop and report what you found.
  5. Batch independent queries in parallel. Never run sequential searches when parallel is possible.
  6. Structure results in the required format: files, relationships, answer, next_steps.

Context Budget

Reading entire large files is the fastest way to exhaust the context window. Protect the budget:

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.
