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

dinkydash 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 5d 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

This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.

Overview

DinkyDash is a family dashboard for a screen on the wall. A daily cron job calls the Claude API to write a headline; the Flask app renders that alongside today's agenda, whose turn each chore is, and the countdowns — all recomputed from config.yaml at render time.

Three components:

  1. The engine (dinkydash/) — pure functions plus the model call. No config file is read here, no clock consulted, nothing written to disk.
  2. The web app (web/) — the dashboard at /, a settings UI at /settings that writes config.yaml.
  3. The marketing site (website/) — dinkydash.co, a second Flask app rendering Markdown through Jinja on request. No build step and no committed HTML.

This repo is public and MIT-licensed, and the hosted multi-tenant SaaS is being built inside it, with self-hosting as the second mode of one codebase. Both facts constrain every change: see This is a public repo and Two modes, always below. Before making structural changes, read:

  • the hosted MVP plan — settled decisions, phases and what is still open. A Linear document on the Dinky Dash team (DinkyDash Hosted MVP — Plan), because it tracks Linear issues; the engineering rules it rested on are in this file and the ones it points to.
  • the strategy document — positioning, pricing, SEO. Not in the repo by policy: it is a Linear document on the Dinky Dash team. See Strategy and marketing live in Linear.
  • design/ — mockups for the settings UI and the dashboard, with the reasoning

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.
