meta-dev

meta-dev is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from TheWayWithin/agent-11. It costs 107 tokens per session (1,074 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

AGENT-11 framework development. Use when modifying agents, commands, missions, skills, or library files inside the agent-11 repository itself. Distinguishes the LIBRARY surface (project/agents/specialists/, project/commands/, library/) — which is deployed to users — from the WORKING SQUAD (.claude/agents/…

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

meta-dev 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 today.

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.

AGENT-11 Meta-Development

What this skill is for

You are working inside the AGENT-11 framework repository, not a user product. Edits here ship to other people via install.sh. The same filename can mean two different things depending on directory.

This skill orients you correctly without relying on memory or repeated reminders.

Two parallel agent sets in this repo

Path Role Modify when
project/agents/specialists/ Library agents — deployed to users via install.sh You are improving agent capabilities for end users (≥99% of work)
.claude/agents/ Working squad — internal dev tooling You are improving how we build AGENT-11 itself (rare)

Same distinction for commands:

Path Role Modify when
project/commands/ Library commands — deployed Improving end-user /coord, /foundations, etc.
.claude/commands/ Working squad commands — internal Improving internal dev workflows

Default work target

When in doubt: project/agents/specialists/ and project/commands/. Most work improves what users get on install.sh, not our internal tooling.

/CLAUDE.md Jamie's personal preferences NO
library/CLAUDE.md AGENT-11 library instructions → user's .claude/CLAUDE.md post-install YES

Edits to library content target library/CLAUDE.md. Personal preferences belong in root. Internal dev guardrails belong in .claude/CLAUDE.md.

Verification before significant edits

Before editing an agent or command file, ask:

  1. Am I improving the AGENT-11 library for end users? → project/agents/specialists/ or project/commands/
  2. Am I improving the AGENT-11 development process? → .claude/agents/ or .claude/commands/
  3. Quick check: grep -n "$(basename your-file)" project/deployment/scripts/install.sh — if found, it's deployed (library); if not, it's internal.

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.
