archon

archon is a skill for Claude Code from coleam00/ai-content-factory. It costs 279 tokens per session (4,062 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

Instructions for Archon, a platform that runs AI coding workflows in separate Git worktrees. Git worktrees are independent working directories connected to the same repository.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to set up Archon, initialize a repository, run workflows, create workflow or command files, and manage advanced workflow features.
Why use it?
It gives a consistent way to choose, configure, create, and run Archon workflows without mixing changes between tasks. It also explains how workflows, commands, and settings fit together.

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

archon 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 11d 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.

Archon CLI Skill

Archon is a remote agentic coding platform that runs AI workflows in isolated git worktrees. This skill teaches you how to run workflows, create new workflows and commands, and manage Archon configuration.

Available Workflows (live)

!archon workflow list 2>&1 || echo "Archon CLI not installed. Read guides/setup.md to set it up."

Routing

Determine the user's intent and dispatch to the appropriate guide:

Intent Action
Setup / install / "how to use" Read guides/setup.md — interactive setup wizard
Config / settings Read guides/config.md — interactive config editor
Initialize .archon/ in a repo Read references/repo-init.md
Create a workflow Read references/workflow-dag.md — the complete workflow authoring guide
Quick parameter lookup — which field works on which node type Read references/parameter-matrix.md — master matrix, intent-based lookup, silent-failure catalog
Advanced features (hooks/MCP/skills) Read references/dag-advanced.md
Create a command file Read references/authoring-commands.md
Variable substitution reference Read references/variables.md
CLI command reference Read references/cli-commands.md
Run an interactive workflow Read references/interactive-workflows.md — transparent relay protocol
Workflow good practices / anti-patterns Read references/good-practices.md — read before designing a non-trivial workflow
Troubleshoot a failing / stuck workflow Read references/troubleshooting.md — log locations, common failure modes
Run a workflow (default) Continue with "Running Workflows" below

If the intent is ambiguous, ask the user to clarify.


Richer Context: archon.diy

The references in this skill are a distilled subset. The full, canonical docs live at archon.diy (Starlight site from packages/docs-web/). If the skill's reference pages don't cover what you need — an edge case, a worked example, a diagram, a deeper section on a feature — fetch the matching page from archon.diy.

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.
