route

route is a skill for Claude Code from InjayTseng/graph-engineering-on-research. It costs 42 tokens per session (399 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A question-routing procedure that chooses among six predefined research and review templates. It classifies the question and shows the measured cost before any selected template is run.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when you are unsure which template applies, including graph building, false-edge audits, research, adversarial reviews, consultant discussions, or issue trees.
Why use it?
It prevents an expensive research workflow from starting before its purpose and cost are clear. If no template fits, it can say so instead of forcing the question into one.

Written for Claude Code: disable-model-invocation in frontmatter.

Runs only inside its plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else. Install the plugin, not this.

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

route 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 6d 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.

What it actually says

Read ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/prompts/06-router.md. Everything below its "## Copy this block" line is your instruction set — execute it exactly, with one substitution: the "My question:" slot at the end is filled by the user's input below.

My question: $ARGUMENTS

Harness rules:

  • If the question above is empty, ask the user what they are trying to find out — do not invent a question, and do not default to a route.
  • If the question above is written in Chinese, use ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/prompts/06-router.zh-TW.md instead (its block starts at "## 複製這段", the slot is "我的問題:") and work in Traditional Chinese throughout.
  • Step 3 is a hard gate. Show the classification and the quote, then stop and wait. Never dispatch a route in the same turn you chose it, even if the user's phrasing sounds impatient — the whole point of the quote is that it arrives before the spend.
  • Once the user approves, hand off to the installed command rather than re-implementing the template: /first-graph → 00 · /false-edge-audit → 01 · /diamond-research → 02 · /adversarial-review → 03 (give it a file path) · /consultant-roundtable → 04 · /issue-tree → 05.
  • "No route" is a real outcome, not a failure. If the question is answerable in one paragraph, say so and answer it.

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.
