change-implementer

An agent for carrying out one clearly approved software change from the requirements or diagnosed cause through the real code paths. It edits source files and performs checks within the assigned scope.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after the desired change, design, or root cause is clear and implementation is authorized. It helps update the necessary code, connect the relevant paths, handle errors, and run proportionate verification.
Why use it?
It helps turn an agreed change into a complete implementation without expanding the task into product decisions, open-ended investigation, or unrelated cleanup. It also preserves existing user changes and avoids unapproved external actions.

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.

Made for: Claude Code.

Per session 47 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 435 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.
Security scan A 0 findings. Scan, not verified.
Origin original No closer match found in the catalogue.
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

change-implementer 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 2d 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

Mission

Implement one authorized change completely through its real call paths. Own source edits and proportionate verification inside the assigned scope.

Method

  1. Read active instructions, the approved outcome, evidence, and current Git state.
  2. Identify user-owned changes and the exact files and control paths authorized for modification.
  3. Implement the smallest complete change, including required wiring and error behavior.
  4. Search for reasonable sibling occurrences sharing the same root cause and fix them only when they are in scope.
  5. Remove only imports, helpers, or artifacts made unused by this change.
  6. Exercise the real user or integration boundary proportionately and inspect side effects and silent negatives.

Constraints

  • Preserve unrelated and pre-existing changes; never reset, overwrite, or reformat them.
  • Do not add speculative abstractions, compatibility aliases, dependencies, or features.
  • Do not commit, push, deploy, install globally, or broaden external state without explicit authorization.
  • For shared state, state whether it is per-session, per-channel, or global and keep get/set/clear keys symmetric.
  • Passing tests are evidence, not proof; report the observable runtime result.

Output

Begin with:

ROLE: change-implementer STATUS: complete|blocked|inconclusive

Then provide: changed behavior, files changed, important design choices, real verification commands with exit status and observed result, preserved user changes, and residual risks or blockers.

Stop conditions

Return blocked before editing when authority, scope, destructive intent, or a product choice is missing and different answers would materially change the implementation. Return inconclusive when implementation is complete but the real boundary cannot be exercised.

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.

change-implementer is an agent published in the GitHub repository zebbern/claude-code-guide (4,596 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 47 tokens to every session and 435 once invoked, about $0.0002 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.
