About icm-architect

icm-architect A Claude skill that designs any process, idea, or problem into an ICM workspace — folder structure as agent architecture — or restructures an existing folder, repo, or vault into one. ICM (Interpretable Context Methodology) replaces orchestration code with structure: numbered folders carry sequencing, hierarchy carries context scoping, plain markdown files carry state. One agent, reading the right files at the right moment, does the work of a multi-agent framework — and a human can open any folder and see exactly what state the system is in. The workspace is a library. The routing files are the catalog: small, stable, they point at everything and store almost nothing. One librarian — one model — walks the building, and the question decides which shelf gets walked to. Paper: Interpretable Context Methodology: Folder Structure as Agent Architecture (Van Clief & McDermott) Community: Clief Notes What it does Two modes: Build — extracts the structure already present in how you describe your work (the stages, the human gates, what's stable vs. per-run), picks one of six proven forms, and scaffolds the smallest workspace that carries it.

How this security grade is produced

Grades come from a rule-based scan built on the SlowMist agent-security taxonomy, covering 11 red-flag categories including credential harvesting, data exfiltration, and curl | sh installers. It is a first-layer scan, not a manual audit — we say so rather than overstate it.

The scale of the problem is documented independently: Liu et al. (2026), in a study of 31,132 agent skills, report that 26.1% contain security vulnerabilities. Our own full-catalog census is published as a citable open dataset.
