Instructions file for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions CLAUDE.md; mentions subagents.

This is CaptainYouz/agentdex's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on agentdex itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything agentdex configures →

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

agentdex 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 2mo 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.

CLAUDE.md — Agentdex

Context for AI assistants working on this repo.

Purpose

Desktop app (Tauri 2) to browse skills, subagents, rules, and context (CLAUDE.md) for Cursor, Claude, and Codex under the home directory (~ / %USERPROFILE%). Users search/filter the catalog, preview and edit files, show paths in the system file manager, and explore the surrounding folder tree.

Platforms: macOS (primary), Windows, Linux (best-effort). Home directory uses dirs::home_dir(). Plugin skill paths use Path::components(), not string splitting.

Commands

pnpm install
pnpm tauri dev      # dev app (Vite on :1420 + Rust backend)
pnpm tauri build    # production bundle
pnpm build          # frontend only (vue-tsc + vite)
pnpm lint           # eslint

Do not run tests or tauri dev unless the user asks.

Architecture

src-tauri/src/          Rust backend (filesystem + scan)
  lib.rs                Tauri commands (IPC entry points)
  scanner.rs            Catalog scan logic
  parser.rs             YAML frontmatter for skills/agents
  directory.rs          Lazy directory listing (worktree panel)
  types.rs              Serde types (camelCase JSON to frontend)

src/                    Vue 3 + TypeScript UI
  pages/home/Home.vue   Main screen (catalog + detail + worktree)
  composables/          useCatalog, useWorktree, useFileActions, …
  components/           Presentational UI
  types/*.types.ts      Frontend types
  constants/*.constants.ts
  utils/                Pure helpers

Data flow: Home.vue → useCatalog → invoke('scan_catalog') → scanner::build_catalog → grouped CatalogResponse. File ops use read_item_file, write_item_file, delete_item_file, reveal_item_path, get_item_file_stats. Worktree uses get_home_directory + list_directory_children.

When changing catalog shape, update both src-tauri/src/types.rs and src/types/catalog.types.ts (serde rename_all = "camelCase" on Rust side).

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.
