scout

scout is a command for Claude Code from askwigconsulting/cohort. It costs 36 tokens per session (1,005 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command that sends a software review to several AI models from different providers, then has a second review challenge the first findings before combining the results.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to divide a review into areas such as security, correctness, architecture, product, or documentation, gather findings, and produce a verified summary for human decision-making.
Why use it?
It provides independent opinions and an adversarial check, helping expose defects or missed risks in a review.

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

scout 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 — 79 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Send a panel after it. /scout runs a multi-vendor adversarial review: a coordinator decomposes the target into disjoint areas and routes each to the cheapest capable model from any vendor, then has a second round try to break the first round's findings. Reviewers are advisory and read-only — they find; the coordinator verifies; the human decides. This is the review sibling of /crew.

Run /scout only from a coordinator tier (Fable, preferred, or Opus) — decomposition, routing, and adversarial synthesis are the judgments a lower tier gets wrong.

1. Scope — carve disjoint areas

Define the target and split it into areas that don't overlap, so reviewers don't collide and coverage is legible: e.g. security/trust, correctness, architecture, product, docs. Assign the hardest, most ambiguous areas to the strongest models and the mechanical ones to the cheapest — that is the token-optimization the panel exists for.

2. Round 1 — fan out across vendors (≤20 in flight)

Each reviewer gets its area, all three lenses (defects weighted highest), and the operational gates (scope, evidence, adversarial self-check, verify, calibrate). Route by fit and cost:

  • Claude subagents — Fable for architecture-critical/ambiguous, Opus for complex, Sonnet for well-scoped, Haiku for mechanical/doc areas. They read the repo directly.

  • ChatGPT — /consult-gpt (Codex CLI, read-only). Explores the repo itself.

  • Grok — cohort engine review grok --tier flagship for areas needing repo exploration, or cohort engine consult grok --tier flagship with a packaged bundle for a bounded question. When grok-cli + bwrap are installed these run through the local bubblewrap-sandboxed grok CLI (real, worktree-scoped repo access); if it is missing — or present but broken — they fall back to the API-direct agentic loop (gated tools, transcript recorded). Read-only, advisory; every path is egress-gated.

    The fallback is always announced on stderr, never silent. Read the note before the answer: the two channels differ in what the model could see (worktree-scoped file access versus the gated read-only toolbox), so an area reviewed over the fallback was reviewed with less context than one reviewed over the CLI. A gate refusal is different again — it is a refusal, never retried on the other channel.

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.

scout is a command published in the GitHub repository askwigconsulting/cohort (2 stars, last pushed 19d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 36 tokens to every session and 1,005 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-08-31.
