Academic-Writing: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

Academic-Writing CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from AlessandroCaforio/Academic-Writing. It costs 5,883 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A project instruction file for an academic research repository about whether exposure to workplace automation affects political views. It records the thesis, researcher, data sources, repository details, and project structure.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when working on the thesis analysis, notebooks, automation and political-ideology data, repository organization, or project memory notes.
Why use it?
It gives coding agents the background needed to work consistently on the research project instead of relying on memory. It also provides a way to preserve important decisions and findings for later work.

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

Academic-Writing 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 9d 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 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.
