salva: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

salva CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from 0xRyanlee/salva. It costs 2,593 tokens per session, scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

Project instructions for Salva Runtime, a self-hosted service that retrieves information and returns scored entities, evidence, and relationships to software callers.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when building or integrating Salva through its REST API, command-line tools, or MCP connections.
Why use it?
They clarify that Salva responds to API or agent requests and does not run its own recurring schedules or monitoring loops.

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

salva 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.

Salva Runtime — Project Context for Claude Code

What This Project Is

Salva Runtime is a self-hosted Discovery Intelligence Runtime — a structured retrieval and entity extraction service designed to be called by AI agents, CLI tools, and LLMs via stable APIs or MCP.

It is not a scraper. It is not a UI product. It is a composable intelligence pipeline that accepts structured intent and returns scored entities, evidence chains, relations, and telemetry.

Core Product Philosophy

Event-Triggered, Not Schedule-Driven

Salva's core business logic is event-triggered close-loop execution:

trigger (agent / CLI / API call)
  → structured intent in
  → multi-round retrieval + processing
  → scored entities + evidence out
  → caller acts on result

This is a deliberate choice. Salva does NOT own scheduling, polling, or monitoring loops. Those concerns belong to the caller (agent, CLI, or orchestrator). Salva responds to calls — it does not initiate them.

If a caller wants recurring execution, they call Salva on a cron from their own scheduler. Salva stays stateless between calls.

API-First, Agent-Native

The primary integration surface is:

  1. REST API (/v1/discover, /v1/jobs, /v1/runs) — direct HTTP from any caller
  2. MCP Server — for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, and any MCP-compatible agent
  3. CLI skill wrapper — for terminal-native agent workflows and Codex integration
  4. Python SDK — thin wrapper for Python-based agent code

There is no GUI in this repository. A GUI product may be developed as a separate fork — see "GUI Fork" section below.

Deterministic Pipeline First

LLMs are bounded reasoning modules, not the pipeline itself. The enrichment order is:

keyword expansion (deterministic)
  → retrieval (multi-provider, policy-aware)
    → optional bounded LLM query-proposal step (scoped prompt, proposes
      follow-up queries only — not free-form reasoning; amended 2026-07-21,
      see below)
  → extract → normalize → dedupe → classify → score (all deterministic)
  → enrichment (LLM via omlx — scoped, bounded prompts only)

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.
