unc: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

unc CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from 0ss/unc. It costs 146 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Repository instructions for the unc command-line tool and its code repository. They tell coding agents how to document, test, commit, and update changes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when changing unc's behavior, command-line interface, or documentation, especially before testing, updating the changelog, committing, or releasing.
Why use it?
They keep routine changes consistent and make releases easier to review. They also prevent an agent from pushing code without approval.

Instructions file for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md.

This is 0ss/unc's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on unc itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything unc configures →

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

unc CLAUDE.md scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

unc — repo notes for agents

always

  • update CHANGELOG.md on every change that touches behavior, CLI, or docs. Add a line under ## unreleased. Move it under a version heading on release.
  • commits: human/casual/lowercase, terse. NO AI attribution, NO Co-Authored-By.
  • never push without explicit approval.
  • run bash tests/test.sh before committing.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
