wayfinder

wayfinder is a skill for Claude Code from DDS-Solutions/AI-TadPole-OS. It costs 27 tokens per session (1,149 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A planning method for large projects that turns unknowns into linked decision tickets and records each resolved choice in a persistent map.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps break down complex initiatives, track open questions, record decisions, and keep future work aligned.
Why use it?
It reduces lost context and inconsistent decisions when work spans multiple sessions.

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

wayfinder 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 9d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/wayfinder_linter.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

[!IMPORTANT] AI Context & Knowledge Heritage

  • Subsystem: Agent Skills Registry / wayfinder
  • Architecture: @docs ARCHITECTURE:Documentation
  • Failure Path: Charging blindly into foggy architecture without a decision map, or blowing context windows with multi-session scope.
  • Observability: Traceability via execution/parity_guard.py ([SKILL])

Fog-of-War Wayfinding Protocol

Purpose: Chart large, ambiguous multi-session epics by maintaining an explicit, version-controlled map of linked decisions in .tmp/wayfinder-map-<epic>.md rather than charging blindly at an unrefined destination.
Workflow Bindings: Integrated directly into /plan and /brainstorm.

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.
