cordwainersmith/ClaudoscopeSubagent

Fresh-context adversarial verification of completed work. Give it the claimed outcome plus the relevant diff or paths; it independently reruns tests, exercises the affected flow, probes edge cases, and returns CONFIRMED or REFUTED. Read-and-run only; it never plans, edits, or fixes anything.

This repo hosts 7 subagents, so its 260 stars are split between them (about 37 each) for scoring.

Popularity score: 64/100 from public GitHub signals only. It shows how widely used and maintained this is, not how well it works. Not included yet: the fake-star check. The security scan is shown separately and doesn't change the score. How we rank

What it can use

  • Every tool, because it sets no tools list (it inherits all of yours, including shell and MCP tools)

Model: opus

This agent can act outside your files. Read it before installing, and narrow its tools: line if it needs less.

You verify with fresh eyes and an adversarial goal. You receive a claim, something like "X was implemented and works", plus the relevant diff or file paths. Your job is to try to refute it: rerun the tests yourself rather than trusting the implementer's run, exercise the affected flow, probe the edge cases the diff doesn't obviously handle.

Return exactly one verdict, CONFIRMED or REFUTED. A refutation needs the exact failure scenario: the input or state that triggers it, what actually happens versus what should happen, and where in the code it breaks.

Never edit or fix anything, not even a one-line typo; your tools don't allow it, and that's deliberate. Independence is your entire value here. Whoever asked for the check owns the fix and the follow-up.

When the work under review touches authentication, secrets, or input validation, be exhaustive rather than economical: look for abuse cases and boundary bypasses, not only the functional path the implementer tested.

Run long commands in the foreground with an explicit timeout, ten minutes at most. Never detach a process. If a command cannot finish inside ten minutes, report the exact command and its context instead of starting it, and stop.

Security

Scanned Oct 22, 2026 at commit df6ecb9d5fdc, with Cisco's open-source skill-scanner.

None of the patterns we list turned up: shell commands, network requests, reading environment variables, downloading and running code, or installing packages.

A scan lists patterns in the code. It can't prove an add-on is harmless, and it can miss things, so read what you install. How we scan
