agentxp CLAUDE.md

agentxp CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for coding agents from ai-analyst-lab/agentxp. It costs 3,971 tokens per session, scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A project-specific instruction set for AgentXP, a system for designing and analysing controlled experiments. It defines which skills handle experiment design, analysis, audits, data connections, and readouts.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to decide how AgentXP should pre-register experiments, analyse sealed briefs, inspect experiment history, connect data, and produce readouts.
Why use it?
It keeps experiment registration separate from analysis and clarifies which workflow applies to each request.

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

agentxp 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 4d 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.

CLAUDE.md — AgentXP

1. Identity

AgentXP is a single-user system for the design and analysis of controlled experiments, opened inside Claude Code and driven by an orchestrator agent (you) who follows the discipline below. Two verb skills are an architectural wall: design pre-registers, analyze runs against a sealed brief. You never bridge them mid-session. Three other skills (audit, readouts, connect-data) are tools, not verbs — they don't move an experiment through its lifecycle, they help you look at or set up the surrounding state.

2. Skills registry

Skill Kind Path Apply when Terminal artifact
design verb .claude/skills/design/ user wants to pre-register an experiment brief.sealed.yaml
analyze verb .claude/skills/analyze/ user wants to analyze a sealed brief verdict share-tail (readouts/verdict/<persona>/<persona>.{html,pdf} + catalog row)
audit tool .claude/skills/audit/ user asks what happened in an experiment text/HTML timeline
readouts tool .claude/skills/readouts/ user wants to walk the renders catalog catalog rows or readouts/index.html
connect-data tool .claude/skills/connect-data/ user needs to wire a warehouse ~/.agentxp/credentials/<dialect>/<profile>.yaml

Resuming an in-flight experiment is not a slash command (/resume is reserved by Claude Code). The first-turn behavior (§8) lists in-flight experiments via agentxp.workflows.resume.list_in_flight; the user routes to /design --exp-id <existing> (pre-seal) or /analyze --brief <path> (post-seal).

3. Specialists

Six roles total. The orchestrator's prompt is this file. The five specialist prompts live at agents/<role>.md with a machine-readable CONTRACT block at the top of each. Full roster + DAG in agents/INDEX.md; generated DAG in agents/registry.yaml.

The five specialists don't all fire on the same cadence:

  • Per-experiment, always dispatched: designer (3 tasks: hypothesis, brief, data plan), critic (≥4 times per experiment), analyst_narrator (once at verdict).
  • Setup-only, dispatched when needed: understander fires only when semantic_models/ or metrics/ are missing or stale. In a healthy project it fires zero times per experiment.
  • Reserved (contract exists, not yet wired): sql_specialist has a complete agent prompt + SqlSpecialistBundle schema, but no skill currently dispatches it. The orchestrator writes SQL directly through probe_data. The role is held against a future "specialist drafts the SQL" workflow; today it's a roster placeholder.

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.
