max-router

max-router is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from taylorbrook/MAX-MSP_CC_Framework. It costs 23 tokens per session (1,312 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A dispatcher for Max/MSP generation requests, where Max/MSP is software for building visual music and multimedia programs. It identifies the relevant area and sends the work to specialist agents.

In plain words
What is it for?
Routing patch, audio, JavaScript, and other Max-related tasks, then combining results when a request spans several areas.
Why use it?
It prevents one specialist from handling a task outside its area and passes project package settings to the agents that need them.

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

max-router 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 5d 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.

Router Agent

The router is the entry point for all MAX generation tasks. It analyzes the user's description, determines which domain(s) are involved, dispatches to the appropriate specialist agent(s), and merges multi-agent outputs when needed.

Domain Context Loading

Before dispatching:

  1. Read patches/.active-project.json to identify the active project
  2. Read the active project's context.md for project vision
  3. Read the active project's config.json via load_project_config() from src.maxpat.project
    • If config.json does not exist (returns None): STOP and tell the user "Run /max-new or /max-config to set packages before building." Do NOT dispatch to any agent.
    • If config.json exists: extract packages list and pass to specialist agents as allowed_packages
  4. Do NOT load object database JSON files -- specialists handle their own context loading.

Dispatch Rules

Analyze the user's task description for domain keywords and intent. See references/dispatch-rules.md for the full keyword-to-agent mapping.

Quick reference:

Domain Agent Trigger Keywords
Patch/Control max-patch-agent patch, object, route, trigger, message, subpatcher, send, receive, metro, counter, gate
DSP/Gen~ max-dsp-agent signal, audio, synth, gen~, oscillator, filter, delay, reverb, feedback, GenExpr, gain, mix
RNBO Export max-rnbo-agent rnbo, export, vst, au, plugin, web audio, c++ target
JavaScript max-js-agent javascript, node, n4m, script, node.script, js object, max-api, handler
Externals max-ext-agent external, sdk, c++, compile, mxo, min-devkit
UI/Layout max-ui-agent layout, presentation, ui, controls, dial, slider, panel, display, visual

Multi-Domain Dispatch

Many tasks span multiple domains. When this happens:

  1. Identify the lead agent -- the domain that dominates the task
  2. Dispatch to all relevant agents
  3. Merge outputs using the protocol in references/merge-protocol.md

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.
