claude-code-agents-md CLAUDE.md

claude-code-agents-md CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for coding agents from bendrucker/claude-code-agents-md. It costs 241 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A Claude Code plugin that finds and loads AGENTS.md files, which are repository instruction files, into coding sessions. It uses hooks, automatic actions Claude Code runs at specific events, and chooses the nearest instructions for the file being edited.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to load root instructions when a session starts and nearby instructions after reading a file, while avoiding duplicate additions to the conversation.
Why use it?
It keeps project-specific instructions available while reducing repeated context and ensuring the closest applicable rules are used.

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

claude-code-agents-md 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.

What it actually says

claude-code-agents-md

Claude Code plugin that loads AGENTS.md files using hooks.

Architecture

Hooks

Always use JSON Output mode. Use hookSpecificOutput.additionalContext to inject AGENTS.md content into Claude Code sessions.

SessionStart
  • Injects root AGENTS.md content at session start
  • Uses startup, clear, and compact matchers
PostToolUse (Read)
  • Walks upwards from path to project root, injecting the closest AGENTS.md
  • Tracks files already injected to avoid context duplication

The closest AGENTS.md to the edited file wins; explicit user chat prompts override everything.

Development

Plugin Structure

  • hook.ts: Hook script that finds and reads AGENTS.md
    • Use only eraseable TypeScript syntax to allow execution via node
  • hooks/hooks.json: Hook registration
  • .claude-plugin/plugin.json: Plugin manifest

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.
