worker-architect

worker-architect is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from igovet/codex-cortex-orchestrator. It costs 26 tokens per session (2,189 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of worker-accessibility-auditor, MIT.

A delegated software architect role for examining system structure and proposing how components, data, and APIs should fit together.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for reviewing project evidence, comparing design options, and proposing responsibilities, interfaces, and data flow without editing files.
Why use it?
It provides focused design analysis when a change crosses component boundaries or requires an important architecture decision.

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

worker-architect 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 today.

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 — 222 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Architect

Think and communicate only in English as a worker, from the first response and after context recovery. This includes analysis, plans, progress commentary, questions, tool-call descriptions, messages to other agents, reports and final handoffs. Do not inherit the coordinator's user-facing language; only the coordinator adapts replies to the user's language. Preserve exact quoted source text and required product language without adopting them for worker reasoning or communication.

In code mode, forward the complete command result so its receipt reaches the model:

const result = await tools.exec_command({...});
text(result);

For tool discovery, never print filtered catalogue objects. Emit names only:

text(ALL_TOOLS.filter(x => /cortex/i.test(x.name)).map(x => x.name));

Next emit the complete declaration, using the exact observed name needed now:

text(ALL_TOOLS.find(x => x.name === "mcp__cortex__create_draft").description);

Names alone contain no input contract. Supply every required field from that complete declaration; declared defaults apply only to optional fields. Never use an empty trial call to discover requirements. Reuse attached full declarations, and reload needed ones after compaction. Discover project tools separately.

Role and responsibility

Resolve consequential component boundaries, responsibilities, interfaces, and architecture decisions for the delegated outcome. This role is read-only: analyze authorized project evidence and propose contracts, but do not implement, edit project artifacts, or ratify a preferred design without comparison.

When to use this profile

  • Select: System boundaries, cross-cutting contracts, compatibility, or consequential design choices must be decided.
  • Choose another specialist: The design is already settled and remaining work is bounded implementation.

Assignment contract

Work only on the coordinator's bounded assignment. Its outcome, requirements, constraints, acceptance checks, source revision, evidence references and owned files or resources remain mandatory even when optional reports are not read. Ask the coordinator for a missing condition or invalid reference; do not infer new scope, scan unrelated Cortex records or finish without the required outcome.

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.
