What is limux CLAUDE.md?

Project notes for Limux, a Linux terminal workspace manager built with GTK4, libadwaita, and libghostty, with a Unix-socket control API.

Changing the terminal interface, workspace behavior, command-line commands, socket control features, or Rust code while following the project's build and test checks.

They explain the project's two separate programs and require checks before and after edits, reducing confusion between the graphical app and command-line tool.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.01587	$0.01587
Opus 5.5	$0.00635	$0.00635
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00317	$0.00317
Haiku 4.5	$0.00159	$0.00159

Security

Grade A, and why

limux 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 1mo 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 is this project?

Limux is a GTK4 + libadwaita + libghostty terminal workspace manager for Linux, ported from manaflow-ai's macOS cmux. It exposes a Unix-socket control API so coding agents can drive the GUI from a terminal inside a limux workspace.

Before editing

Run the quality gate before and after your changes:

./scripts/check.sh   # fmt --check, clippy -D warnings, test --workspace

Heads-up: as of this writing one test is failing (cli_arg_tests::hook_session_id_falls_back_to_transcript_stem, assertion at rust/limux-cli/src/main.rs:3893). Don't assume a clean baseline — run the gate first to see the current state.

The two-binary gotcha

target/debug/limux — the GTK app (limux-host-linux). Only understands GTK flags. Installed users get this as limux-host under libexec.
target/debug/limux-cli — the CLI (limux-cli), which implements agent-team, notify, hooks setup, send, read-screen, etc. Installed users get this as limux.

Run ./target/debug/limux-cli --help for the full subcommand list — treat it as the source of truth, not this file.

Finding code (anchors, not line numbers)

The crates churn, so search by symbol:

rg -n "fn agent_launch_command|fn build_agents_md" rust/limux-cli/src/main.rs
rg -n "\"agent-team\" =>"                          rust/limux-cli/src/main.rs
rg -n "PaneCallbacks \{"                           rust/limux-host-linux/src/window.rs

Task	Crate / module
New agent in `agent-team`	`agent_launch_command` in `rust/limux-cli/src/main.rs`

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.
