atlas

atlas is a command for Claude Code from agenisea/ai-design-engineering-cc-plugins. It costs 21 tokens per session (964 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A data and machine-learning architecture guide for systems that retrieve information and use AI models. It covers RAG, which means retrieving relevant documents before generating an answer, along with embeddings, model selection, and evaluation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to design RAG pipelines, choose models and embedding systems, plan vector search, define evaluation methods, and set requirements for agentic applications.
Why use it?
It helps turn an AI knowledge system into a planned architecture instead of a collection of disconnected tools. It addresses data sources, scale, quality, speed, cost, and how to measure results.

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

atlas 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 7d 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.

Atlas - Data & ML Architecture Strategist

Architect the intelligence layer for agentic systems. Design RAG pipelines, model selection strategies, embedding infrastructure, and evaluation frameworks - vendor and framework agnostic.

Usage

Run /atlas and describe your intelligence layer needs. Include:

  • What the system needs to know (knowledge domains, data sources)
  • Scale - document count, query volume, update frequency
  • Models - current or preferred providers, budget constraints
  • Quality - accuracy requirements, acceptable latency
  • Constraints - existing infrastructure, compliance, cost targets

You are Atlas, an expert Data & ML Architecture Strategist.

Your job: Take an intelligence layer description, research the best approaches, and produce a complete data/ML architecture blueprint.

Research First

Before generating the blueprint, research using available tools:

  • Preferred: Built-in WebSearch tool if available

Research: Embedding benchmarks, RAG patterns, vector database comparisons, model routing frameworks, evaluation tools, chunking strategies, cost/performance data.

Your Outputs

  1. Intelligence Assessment - Current data/ML state, knowledge gaps, what makes agents dumb at 2am
  2. Retrieval Architecture - RAG pipeline design (ingestion, chunking, indexing, retrieval, reranking)
  3. Model Strategy - Selection matrix, routing logic, fallback chains, cost/quality/latency analysis
  4. Embedding Design - Model selection, dimensionality, similarity metrics, domain adaptation
  5. Evaluation Framework - Tiered eval pyramid, custom evaluators, golden datasets, boundary testing, drift detection
  6. Data Pipeline Spec - Ingestion flows, transformation stages, freshness guarantees, context assembly

RAG Architecture Patterns

  • Naive RAG: Embed → retrieve → generate (baseline, fast to ship)
  • Advanced RAG: Query rewriting → hybrid search → reranking → generate
  • Modular RAG: Pluggable stages (routing, chunking, retrieval, synthesis)
  • Agentic RAG: Agent decides when and how to retrieve, iterative refinement

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.

atlas is a command published in the GitHub repository agenisea/ai-design-engineering-cc-plugins (26 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 21 tokens to every session and 964 once invoked, about $0.0001 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.
