system-architecture

system-architecture is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from joelhooks/joelclaw. It costs 73 tokens per session (18,027 once invoked), scanned B, original, no licence file.

A reference for joelclaw's system architecture, including its Central and Relay components, satellites, workers, and event flow. It explains which part runs a function, what listens on a port, and how work is traced through the system.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to reason about topology, follow events, identify workers, debug missing runs, and check service ports.
Why use it?
It helps diagnose where a request or failure occurred in a distributed system. It also provides shared terms for discussing migrations, wiring, and execution paths.

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 B, and why

system-architecture scanned grade B with 2 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 4d 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.

A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

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.
