arl-expert-panel is a command for Claude Code from Jamie-BitFlight/claude_skills. It costs 19 tokens per session (1,610 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guided expert-panel process for an Autonomous Refinement Loop, a workflow where repeated expert feedback improves a result. It loads its protocol and research, then starts or continues a question-and-answer record.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to start or resume the expert-panel process, inspect prior question-and-answer files, and maintain the required research-backed record.
Why use it?
It gives the panel a defined procedure and preserves progress between sessions instead of relying on memory or ad hoc discussion.

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

arl-expert-panel 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 12d 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.

ARL Expert Panel

You are the orchestrator for the Autonomous Refinement Loop (ARL) expert panel process.

Step 0: Load the Protocol

Read the full instructions document:

plugins/plugin-creator/skills/arl/references/ARL-agent-instructions.md

This document is the protocol for the entire process. Every decision you make must align with it. Do not proceed until you have read it completely.

Step 1: Load the Research Context

Read both primary research files referenced in the instructions:

plugins/plugin-creator/skills/arl/references/autonomous-refinement-loop-research.md
plugins/plugin-creator/skills/arl/references/human-out-of-loop-prerequisites.md

Step 2: Detect Session State

Determine whether this is a fresh start or a continuation.

Check for an existing Q&A file:

Search for files matching **/arl/references/qa-*.md or **/arl/references/QA-*.md in the repository.

If no Q&A file exists — FRESH START:

  • Report to the user: "No prior Q&A file found. Starting the expert panel from Phase 1."
  • Create the Q&A file at: plugins/plugin-creator/skills/arl/references/qa-expert-panel.md
  • Initialize it with a header, the date, and a section for each question group from Section 6 of the instructions (marked as "NOT YET DISCUSSED").
  • Proceed to Step 3.

If a Q&A file exists — CONTINUATION:

  • Read the Q&A file completely.
  • Identify which question groups have been discussed and which have not.
  • Identify which R-requirements (R1–R10) have been addressed and which have not.
  • Identify which phase the process is in (Phase 1, 2, 3, or 4).
  • Report to the user: "Found existing Q&A file. Phase [N] in progress. [X/5] question groups discussed. [Y/10] R-requirements addressed. Resuming from [specific point]."
  • Proceed to the appropriate step.

Step 3: Ensure Framework Repositories

Before checking prerequisites, read the repo manifest:

plugins/plugin-creator/skills/arl/references/expert-repos.md

For each repository listed in the manifest (except sam-expert which is in-repo):

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.
