About this skill
Router First Architecture is a skill in parcadei/Continuous-Claude-v3 (3.9k stars). Its SKILL.md is about 408 tokens, and copies of it appear in 1 other owners' repositories. Licence: MIT.
Workflow steps
2 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Skill-rules trigger layer: Nudges Claude to use the router (keywords, intent patterns)
- Router routing layer: Deterministic mapping to scripts via regex patterns
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d07ff4b. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are json).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Router First Architecture loads about 408 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 13 tokens; SKILL.md has 184 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Router-First Architecture
Route through domain routers before using individual tools. Routers abstract tool selection.
Pattern
Domain routers (like math-router) provide deterministic mapping from user intent to exact CLI commands. Always use the router first; only bypass for edge cases.
DO
- Call
math-router route "<intent>"before any math operation - Let domain skills co-activate with their router (via
coActivatein skill-rules.json) - Trust the router's confidence score; only fall back if
command: null - Keep trigger keywords/patterns in skill-rules.json broader than routing patterns
DON'T
- Call individual scripts directly when a router exists
- Duplicate routing logic in individual skills
- Let domain skills bypass their router
Co-Activation Pattern
Domain skills should co-activate with their router:
{
"math/abstract-algebra/groups": {
"coActivate": ["math-router"],
"coActivateMode": "always"
}
}This ensures the router is always available when domain knowledge is activated.
Two-Layer Architecture
- Skill-rules trigger layer: Nudges Claude to use the router (keywords, intent patterns)
- Router routing layer: Deterministic mapping to scripts via regex patterns
Keep the trigger layer broader than routing - the router should handle "not found" gracefully.

Questions about Router First Architecture
How do I install Router First Architecture in Claude Code?
Run `npx skills add parcadei/Continuous-Claude-v3 --skill router-first-architecture -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (.claude/skills/router-first-architecture in parcadei/Continuous-Claude-v3) into .claude/skills/router-first-architecture in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
How do I install Router First Architecture in Codex?
Run `npx skills add parcadei/Continuous-Claude-v3 --skill router-first-architecture -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (.claude/skills/router-first-architecture in parcadei/Continuous-Claude-v3) into .agents/skills/router-first-architecture in your project.
