What is homie-self-map?

An architecture map for The Homie framework, showing where its chat, runtime, memory, and extension code lives. The Homie is a software framework that routes messages and coding-agent work through these parts.

Use it to locate entry points and key files, understand how the framework’s vertical slices fit together, and plan framework extensions.

It reduces the time spent searching through the framework before changing it. It also helps an agent find the right files for adding skills, commands, integrations, or work lanes.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00060	$0.01638
Opus 5	$0.00030	$0.00819
Sonnet 5	$0.00012	$0.00328
Haiku 4.5	$0.00006	$0.00164

Measured 12d ago against content hash 2639b56cfb84, method: parsed. Prices are Anthropic first-party input rates as of 2026-09-12, from the pricing page.

Security

Grade A, and why

homie-self-map 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 12d 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.

The Homie — Framework Self-Map

A curated architecture map. Read this to understand where things live and how to extend them.

Vertical Slices

1. Chat — Operator Interfaces & Routing

Directory: .claude/chat/
Key files: router.py (slash commands + NL routing), engine.py (runtime-backed conversations), core_handlers.py (command handlers), extension_manager.py (intent registry), models.py (IncomingMessage)
Entry points: run_chat.sh (background), main.py (direct)
What it does: Routes Telegram/CLI/web messages through slash commands or the reasoning engine

2. Runtime — Reasoning Execution Boundary

Directory: .claude/scripts/runtime/
Key files: lane_router.py (lane-first dispatch), bootstrap.py (session start context), profiles.py (provider registry), selection.py (runtime selection), base.py (RuntimeRequest/RuntimeResult)
Entry points: lane_router.py:run_with_runtime_lanes(), bootstrap.py:build_session_start_context()
What it does: Routes reasoning requests through claude_native or generic_runtime lanes with provider fallback

3. Cognition — Memory & Self-Model

Directory: .claude/chat/cognition/
Key files: recall.py (tier classification + dual search), operator_beliefs.py (operator model from chat turns), belief_conflicts.py (contradiction engine), cognitive_pass.py (gated inner monologue), proactive_brief.py (session opening brief)
Entry points: recall.py:run_recall_pipeline(), cognitive_pass.py:run_cognitive_pass()
What it does: Recall, self-model, belief formation, proactive briefing — the "thinking" layer

4. Orchestration — Multi-Agent Task Coordination

Directory: .claude/scripts/orchestration/
Key files: convoy_service.py (convoy business logic), mailbox_service.py (inter-agent messages), executor.py (dispatch adapters), api.py (FastAPI on port 4322), contract.py (frozen enums + transitions)
Entry points: run_api.py (uvicorn), CLI via thehomie convoy/thehomie mailbox
What it does: Convoy/mailbox DAG coordination with dependency tracking and executor dispatch

What ships with it

3 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.

homie-self-map is a skill published in the GitHub repository TheSmokeDev/taskchad-os (24 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 60 tokens to every session and 1,638 once invoked, about $0.0003 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 2026-08-30.
