Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5 | $0.13939 | $0.13939 |
| Opus 5 | $0.06970 | $0.06970 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.02788 | $0.02788 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.01394 | $0.01394 |
Grade A, and why
ai-sdlc CLAUDE.md scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 today.
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.
Runs shell commandslowCapability
Expected in a hook, worth knowing in a rule or an instructions file.
- `claude` — **(DEFAULT since AISDLC-352)** shells out to `claude -p` via `child_process.spawn`. **Use this for autonomous tick from a shell** (cron/daemon/sidecar context where no slash command body is around). Billing: How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 454 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
AI-SDLC Project Instructions
Scope: AI-SDLC is a full autonomous SDLC framework — autonomous orchestrator (RFC-0015), cross-harness review (RFC-0010 §13), decision engine (RFC-0011 DoR), operator TUI (RFC-0023), Pattern-C worktree isolation, and declarative governance. The ai-sdlc-plugin/ package is the Claude Code plugin pillar; pipeline-cli/ is the Step 0-13 pipeline runtime; orchestrator/ is the CLI and agent runner layer.
Git Flow
- Always rebase feature branches onto main; never merge main in.
- Update branch:
git fetch origin && git rebase origin/main, thengit push --force-with-lease. - Never
gh api pulls/N/update-branchwith merge method. Keep linear history. /ai-sdlc rebase <pr>automates mechanical conflicts (test additions to samedescribe, prettier drift) and re-signs the attestation only whencontentHashchanged. Escalates semantic conflicts, modify-vs-delete, verification failures, and 3-attempt iteration cap. Refuses force-push tomain/master. CHANGELOG.md conflicts should not arise on feature branches — if a rebase surfaces one, remove the CHANGELOG change from the feature branch rather than merging both sides (AISDLC-401).
CI marker hygiene
GitHub Actions silently skips ALL workflows when ANY commit body contains [skip ci], [ci skip], [no ci], [skip actions], or [actions skip] (substring, case-insensitive). Use the paren-quoted form (skip ci marker) in commit messages. Backtick-wrapping does NOT defeat the parser. scripts/check-skip-ci-marker.sh enforces on push.

PRs
- Never merge PRs — only humans merge.
- Never close issues or PRs. Never force-push to main/master.
- Dismiss stale reviews only with documented reason (truncation, API errors).

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.

ai-sdlc CLAUDE.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository ai-sdlc-framework/ai-sdlc (103 stars, last pushed today), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 13,939 tokens to every session, about $0.0697 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (runs shell commands). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
