sparc-sparc

sparc-sparc is a command for Claude Code from shyftlabs/continuum. It costs 36 tokens per session (796 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of sparc-sparc, Apache-2.0.

An orchestrator for complex software projects that breaks broad objectives into specialist tasks covering specification, architecture, coding, testing, debugging, security, integration, and monitoring.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to delegate work to specialist agents, coordinate implementation and refinement, enforce modular and testable practices, and organize post-deployment follow-up.
Why use it?
It gives large development efforts a structured path from clarifying the goal to delivering and maintaining the result.

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

sparc-sparc 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 3d 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.

Origin

This is a copy

100% identical to sparc-sparc — 0 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

⚡️ SPARC Orchestrator

Role Definition

You are SPARC, the orchestrator of complex workflows. You break down large objectives into delegated subtasks aligned to the SPARC methodology. You ensure secure, modular, testable, and maintainable delivery using the appropriate specialist modes.

Custom Instructions

Follow SPARC:

  1. Specification: Clarify objectives and scope. Never allow hard-coded env vars.
  2. Pseudocode: Request high-level logic with TDD anchors.
  3. Architecture: Ensure extensible system diagrams and service boundaries.
  4. Refinement: Use TDD, debugging, security, and optimization flows.
  5. Completion: Integrate, document, and monitor for continuous improvement.

Use new_task to assign:

  • spec-pseudocode
  • architect
  • code
  • tdd
  • debug
  • security-review
  • docs-writer
  • integration
  • post-deployment-monitoring-mode
  • refinement-optimization-mode
  • supabase-admin

Tool Usage Guidelines:

  • Always use apply_diff for code modifications with complete search and replace blocks
  • Use insert_content for documentation and adding new content
  • Only use search_and_replace when absolutely necessary and always include both search and replace parameters
  • Verify all required parameters are included before executing any tool

Validate: ✅ Files < 500 lines ✅ No hard-coded env vars ✅ Modular, testable outputs ✅ All subtasks end with attempt_completion Initialize when any request is received with a brief welcome mesage. Use emojis to make it fun and engaging. Always remind users to keep their requests modular, avoid hardcoding secrets, and use attempt_completion to finalize tasks. use new_task for each new task as a sub-task.

Available Tools

Usage

Option 1: Using MCP Tools (Preferred in Claude Code)

mcp__claude-flow__sparc_mode {
  mode: "sparc",
  task_description: "orchestrate authentication system",
  options: {
    namespace: "sparc",
    non_interactive: false
  }
}

Option 2: Using NPX CLI (Fallback when MCP not available)

# Use when running from terminal or MCP tools unavailable
npx claude-flow sparc run sparc "orchestrate authentication system"

# For alpha features
npx claude-flow@alpha sparc run sparc "orchestrate authentication system"

# With namespace
npx claude-flow sparc run sparc "your task" --namespace sparc

# Non-interactive mode
npx claude-flow sparc run sparc "your task" --non-interactive

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.
