67

Useful candidate with missing or mixed trust signals. Keep it in an isolated workspace until the outcome loop proves task fit.

Audit

Experimentalreview

Sparse or mixed signals. Useful for discovery, but not for autonomous installation.

Test manually in an isolated workspace and compare against safer alternatives.

Install targets

Install this skill in your agent workflow

Copy the registry command or an agent-specific install prompt for Codex, Claude Code, and Cursor.

skill install

OpenAgentSkill CLI

Use the registry command when your workflow supports the OpenAgentSkill installer.

$ npx skills add botcircuits-ai/botcircuits-argus

Agent resolve plan

Let an agent verify fit before installing.

The Resolve API returns the selected skill, alternatives, safety policy, audit notes, install target, and copy-paste prompt an agent can follow without scraping this page.

Open text plan

Agent should check

  • Task fit and alternatives from Resolve API.
  • Audit score, trust score, and safety policy warnings.
  • Install target compatibility for Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, or CLI.

Copy prompt

Task: Use Botcircuits Argus in this workspace.

Before running it, summarize audit warnings, required permissions, and the fallback skill if install is risky.

Agent handoff

Give an agent the install path, not another directory page.

Use the public install endpoint to fetch the command, safety checklist, target prompts, and canonical links for this skill.

Implementation path

  1. 1Install it in a sandbox agent and run one Workflow automation task end to end.
  2. 2Compare output quality, latency, and failure behavior against at least one alternative.
  3. 3Promote it into production only after reviewing repository permissions, license, and maintenance signals.

Overview

<h1 align="center">Argus</h1>

<p align="center"> <strong>Enforce structure where it must hold. Reason only where it's needed.</strong> </p>

---

An agent skill (Claude, Hermes, etc.) that runs your repetitive workflows **predictably**, **traceably**, and **cost-efficiently** — cutting **~80%** of tokens usage while keeping full accuracy.

![botcircuits-agent-solution](docs/solution.png)

<p align="center"> <img alt="Tokens Saved" src="https://img.shields.io/badge/Tokens_Saved-80%25-brightgreen?style=for-the-badge"> <img alt="Consistency" src="https://img.shields.io/badge/Consistency-1.00-brightgreen?style=for-the-badge"> <img alt="Decision Accuracy" src="https://img.shields.io/badge/Decision_Accuracy-100%25-brightgreen?style=for-the-badge"> <img alt="Run Latency" src="https://img.shields.io/badge/Run_Latency-1.4x_faster-blue?style=for-the-badge"> </p> <p align="center"><sub>measured across 4 use cases · see <a href="#benchmark">Benchmark</a></sub></p>

## Structured flow control **Replace guesswork with deterministic workflows**. Argus controls navigation, ensuring AI agents follow approved, and repeatable execution paths instead of reasoning through every step.

## Stateful memory context **Provide only the context that matters**. Argus tracks state changes and supplies the agent with the exact memory needed for the current step, improving reliability while reducing token usage.

---

## How it works

Argus ships **two skills** your agent loads:

| Skill | The user says… | The agent does… | |---|---|---| | **botcircuits-workflow-authoring** | _"create an order fulfillment workflow with …"_ | Writes the workflow JSON and **builds** it into a runnable state machine. | | **botcircuits-workflow-running** | _"run order fulfillment"_ | Runs the workflow — the **deterministic engine** drives navigation in the background and dispatches each action to the AI agent. |

---

## Installation

Argus runs inside a host agent. Install the agent you want, then instal
