allora-chain CLAUDE.md

allora-chain CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from allora-network/allora-chain. It costs 1,387 tokens per session, scanned C, a copy of allora-chain AGENTS.md, Apache-2.0.

Coding rules for the Allora blockchain project, covering deterministic behavior, state access, validation, events, protocol definitions, and stored data.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when changing Go code, blockchain state, protocol definitions, parameters, genesis data, or event handling in Allora Chain.
Why use it?
They reduce the risk of consensus errors, invalid state changes, and incompatible protocol or storage updates.

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 C, and why

allora-chain CLAUDE.md scanned grade C 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 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.

Reaches for credential fileshighPrivilege escalation

SSH keys, cloud credentials, git-credentials, .npmrc, /etc/shadow: reading these is how a config file becomes a credential leak.

1. **Verify the signing key is available**: Run `ssh-add -l` and confirm the configured signing key is listed. If the agent has no identities or the key is missing, **stop immediately** and tell the user to load the key

Short, high-signal guidance for working in the allora-chain repo. Keep context small and only load extra docs when needed.

Quick Rules (Apply To Most Changes)

  • Determinism: no time.Now()/rand, no map-order dependence, no floats in consensus; use alloraMath.Dec/sdk.Int/sdk.Dec and stable iteration.
  • State access: keepers are the only state access point; no IO, goroutines, or non-determinism inside keepers.
  • Validation: ValidateBasic + keeper stateful checks; use sdkerrors/errorsmod for typed errors.
  • Events: emit events for all state transitions with consistent type/attribute keys.
  • Protos: never change field numbers; add new optional fields; use Request/Response for list queries; new versions for breaking changes.
  • State layout: define keys/prefixes in types/keys.go; keep prefix types stable; add indexes for query-heavy data.
  • Params/genesis: validate every param change + authority checks; genesis is deterministic with round-trip tests.
  • Comments: self-contained; no issue/task IDs, PR/review links, or report names — describe the behavior, not the ticket. Applies to comments you copy or move during merges/rebases too. See Code comments below.

Go Conventions

  • Always gofmt/goimports; make lint must always pass clean after producing complete code. Avoid using nolint statements if possible, but if you need to use it, add a comment on the reason why.
  • Prefer table-driven unit tests and explicit dependency injection for easy mocking.
  • Use sdk.Context.Logger() for chain logs; avoid noisy logs in consensus paths.
  • Only apply Allora Go Service patterns (brynbellomy errors, sqlc, viper, Gin, zerolog) if editing non-chain services.

Changes That Require Extra Steps

  • Proto/state layout changes: add module migration + tests; bump ConsensusVersion and wire upgrades if needed.
  • New module/store keys: update app wiring for store upgrades.
  • Generated files (*.pb.go, *.pulsar.go): never edit by hand; run codegen.
  • See CONTRIBUTING.md for more details on migrations, protos, upgrades, and complex 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.
