Agentic Atlas patterns for agentic design

For agents mid-task

Connect an agent

The Agent projection is hosted at /mcp/ — nothing to install, nothing to cache, no local corpus. It serves the one active Release.

Two ways in

Claude Code plugin

Marketplace command

/plugin marketplace add aj604/agentic-atlas-plugin

Then install agentic-atlas.

Three skills cover the three design moments — reviewing-agent-designs audits an existing skill, agent, or plugin against the patterns; designing-agent-systems interviews, consults once, and proposes a cited decomposition; applying-a-pattern turns one named pattern into a cited edit plan. Two read-only agents (pattern-librarian, design-auditor) return bounded, path-cited distillations.

The ladder, briefly

Consult in order of cost, not in a fixed sequence: atlas_orient, then atlas_cards, then one addressed Section off atlas_read, then — for the one or two ids the decision actually turns on — the complete Node. Consultation cost stays proportional to relevance.

Every payload names the Release it was read from. Pass that value back as expected_revision on every later call of the same consultation: a promotion between calls is refused with revision_changed, never silently crossed.

The eight tools

The entire supported surface. A name not in this table does not exist; there are no aliases.

ToolAddressesBounds
atlas_orient query default 3, maximum 8
atlas_cards batch minimum 1, maximum 4
atlas_read one-subject
atlas_links one-subject default 12, maximum 50
atlas_provenance batch
atlas_navigate query
atlas_define query
atlas_decisions query

First contact

Verify the wiring with one call: atlas_orient on ordinary design vocabulary, for example “context budget.” A successful payload returns candidate identities with status and hook — a miss is itself a successful payload, not an error.
