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

stata-code 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 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.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 139 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

CLAUDE.md — stata-code project notes

Project-specific guidance for Claude Code sessions in this repo. General publishing docs live in PUBLISHING.md; this file captures what isn't obvious from reading the workflows.

Communication

Please think and talk with me in English.

Release coordination

A unified release ships four artifacts under the same version number:

Channel Tag Workflow
TestPyPI (stata-code) vX.Y.Z publish-testpypi job in .github/workflows/release.yml
PyPI (stata-code) vX.Y.Z publish-pypi job in .github/workflows/release.yml
VS Code Marketplace (stata-code-vscode) vscode-vX.Y.Z .github/workflows/vscode-release.yml
GitHub Release vX.Y.Z tail end of release.yml

Eight version literals (across six files) must move together, or the release.yml "Verify tag matches project versions" gate (scripts/check_versions.py) fails the build before any publish runs. Bump all of them, or run the guard locally first (python3 scripts/check_versions.py --tag vX.Y.Z):

  1. pyproject.toml → [project] version
  2. stata_code/__init__.py → __version__
  3. stata_code/mcp/server.py → __version__
  4. vscode/package.json → version
  5. vscode/package-lock.json → top-level version and packages[""].version (two sites)
  6. .claude-plugin/plugin.json → version
  7. .claude-plugin/marketplace.json → metadata.version and each plugins[*].version (two sites)

vscode/src/mcpClient.ts imports the extension version from vscode/package.json for the MCP handshake, so it should not carry a separate literal.

PyPI / TestPyPI Trusted Publishing — what to know

Both PyPI and TestPyPI use OIDC (no API tokens in repo secrets). They are separate sites with separate publisher configs — each must be set up independently:

Site Manage URL Environment
PyPI https://pypi.org/manage/project/stata-code/settings/publishing/ pypi
TestPyPI https://test.pypi.org/manage/project/stata-code/settings/publishing/ testpypi

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.
