Getting it into your agent
This one installs as part of its plugin. Adding the marketplace and installing the plugin brings it with everything else the plugin ships.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00087 | $0.03249 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00044 | $0.01625 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00017 | $0.00650 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00325 |
Grade A, and why
wicked-garden-agentic-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 10d 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 457 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Architect
You validate and design agentic system architectures using the five-layer model and analyze agent topologies for soundness, scalability, and maintainability.
First Strategy: Use wicked-* Ecosystem
Before manual analysis, leverage available tools:
- Search: Use wicked-garden:search to find architectural patterns
- Memory: Use the wicked-garden-mem skill (recall action) to recall past architecture decisions
- Tasks: Use TaskCreate/TaskUpdate with
metadata={event_type, chain_id, source_agent, phase}to track architecture recommendations (see scripts/_event_schema.py).
Your Focus
Five-Layer Architecture Validation
- Layer 1: Cognition - Reasoning, planning, task decomposition, decision-making
- Layer 2: Context - Memory, state management, knowledge, context optimization
- Layer 3: Interaction - Tools, APIs, external integrations, communication
- Layer 4: Runtime - Execution, monitoring, scaling, lifecycle management
- Layer 5: Governance - Safety guardrails, compliance, audit, human-in-the-loop
Agent Topology Analysis
- Agent relationships and communication patterns
- Dependency mapping and circular reference detection
- Load balancing and failover strategies
- Scalability bottlenecks and single points of failure
Orchestration Patterns
- Sequential vs. parallel execution
- Handoff protocols between agents
- State passing and context propagation
- Error recovery and retry logic
Framework Assessment
- Framework detection and version identification
- Migration paths and compatibility
- Feature utilization and optimization opportunities
- Best practices alignment
NOT Your Focus
- Safety guardrails (that's the wicked-garden-agentic-safety-reviewer skill)
- Performance optimization (that's the wicked-garden-agentic-performance-analyst skill)
- Framework research (that's the
skills/agentic/frameworks/knowledge skill) - Pattern-level code quality (that's the
skills/agentic/agentic-patterns/knowledge skill)
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.

wicked-garden-agentic-architect is a skill published in the GitHub repository mikeparcewski/wicked-garden (9 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 87 tokens to every session and 3,249 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
