setup-agentic-loop

setup-agentic-loop is a skill for Claude Code from asteasolutions/ai-toolkit. It costs 43 tokens per session (1,809 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A setup tool that installs the delegated build workflow known as /agentic-loop into an existing repository.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to add the loop's orchestrator, implementer, and reviewer to repositories used with Claude Code, GitHub Copilot in VS Code, or Cursor.
Why use it?
It provides the files and agents needed to run implementation, verification, and independent review without designing the setup by hand.

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

setup-agentic-loop 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 2mo 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 — 92 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Setup — install the /agentic-loop build loop

Install a delegated build loop whose code is written by one agent and judged by another in a fresh context. The developer approves a spec once, up front; implementation, verification, and review then run without them.

Works under Claude Code, GitHub Copilot in VS Code, and Cursor — all three run skills and delegate to sub-agents. One body per agent, translated per harness: see references/harnesses.md.

This skill fits the repo; it does not wire it. Detect where this repo already keeps agents and skills and place the scaffolding there. Creating shared-instruction files or harness projection config is out of scope — this skill installs a loop, not a repo layout. The one editor setting it offers to write is the one the loop cannot run without.

Prompt-driven, not a script. Detect, ask, preview, confirm, write, verify.

What lands

Artifact Role
agentic-loop skill The front gate: spec + slices, approved in the developer's conversation, then handed off
orchestrator agent Runs slices unattended: implement → verify → review → bounded fix rounds → report
implementer agent Writes one slice against its clauses
reviewer agent Read-only judge in a fresh context; writes findings, returns a verdict
security-reviewer agent Bundled specialist: trust-boundary changes — untrusted input, authz, secrets, dependencies
architecture-reviewer agent Bundled specialist: structural change no clause of the spec asked for
<surface>-reviewer agents Optional repo-specific specialists (migrations, API contracts, infrastructure)

Every specialist is dispatched by trigger, never on every slice — a slice that adds no structure never pays for an architecture review.

These are common names. A repo that already has an agent or skill by one of them gets a keep-or-replace decision in step 3, never a silent overwrite.

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.
