TMDb: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

TMDb CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from adamayoung/TMDb. It costs 2,244 tokens per session, scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

Repository instructions for TMDb, a Swift package that provides access to The Movie Database API, an online service for movie and television data. They describe supported Apple platforms, Linux support, project structure, and development guidance.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when changing TMDb services, networking, data models, tests, or Apple-only intelligence features.
Why use it?
They help an assistant understand which code belongs in the main package and which features are separate. They also document platform limits and where to find detailed rules for different types of changes.

Written for Claude Code: PostToolUse hook event. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions CLAUDE.md; mentions subagents.

This is adamayoung/TMDb's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on TMDb 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 TMDb 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

TMDb 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 8d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 174 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

CLAUDE.md

This file provides guidance to Claude Code when working with code in this repository. It carries the always-on rules; the detail behind them lives in topic docs under .claude/docs/read the relevant doc before working in its area (see the table below).

Project Overview

TMDb is a Swift Package for The Movie Database API, supporting iOS 16+, macOS 13+, watchOS 9+, tvOS 16+, visionOS 1+, and Linux. Built with Swift 6.1+ and strict concurrency. (Windows is deliberately not claimed — no CI job builds it; see PR #374, which dropped the claim.)

TMDbClient is the main facade over protocol-based services with dependency injection; the Apple-only on-device intelligence features ship as the separate TMDbIntelligence product (with test doubles in TMDbIntelligenceTesting), so the core TMDb product carries no API that cannot function on Linux.

Topic Docs

Doc Read before…
architecture.md changing services, networking, models or the intelligence products; adding a feature
testing.md writing or organising tests; adding a test target (names are hardcoded in five places)
tmdb-api.md any work shaped by the live API — new endpoints, model changes, fixtures, probe scripts
workflow.md running a delivery, filing issues, code review, the completion checklist, opening a PR
tooling.md building/testing; choosing make vs skills vs Xcode; worktree/scratch-path isolation; the .xctestplan files (gitignored and untracked — don't plan work that edits them; Integration.xctestplan is credential-bearing)
code-style.md editing any file — auto-format hooks reshape it on disk; pinned tool versions; editor-diagnostic lag

.claude/docs/ carries imperative how-to-work-here detail; knowledge/ (below) carries reference material — why/what/gotcha. Keep new content on its own side of that line.

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.
