Xolotl-Code CLAUDE.md

Xolotl-Code CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for coding agents from cesarfrancots/Xolotl-Code. It costs 1,337 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Repository instructions for Xolotl Code, a desktop and command-line platform for evaluating and comparing coding agents on real engineering tasks. Its Tauri desktop app and Rust command-line tool share an engine and configuration file.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when developing the desktop app, command-line tool, shared Rust engine, provider and skill settings, or evaluation features.
Why use it?
They prevent confusion between the project's two Rust build trees and explain how the two user interfaces share settings and functionality.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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

Xolotl-Code 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.

CLAUDE.md

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

What this is

Xolotl Code — a desktop coding-agent platform for evaluating, comparing, and racing LLMs on real engineering work. It ships as two surfaces that share one engine and one config file:

  • Tauri desktop app (tauri-app/) — the primary surface: chat pane, agent/team worktree orchestration, an eval lab (incl. Goal Eval), and settings for providers/skills/MCP.
  • xolotl CLI (rust/crates/rusty-claude-cli/) — the same engine without the UI: multi-provider routing, slash commands, sessions, planning, tools, memory.

Both read ~/.xolotl-code/config.json, so a key configured in either tool works in both. (Legacy ~/.claw-code/config.json is auto-migrated on first run.)

Two separate Rust trees

There are two independent Rust build trees — do not confuse them:

  • rust/ — a Cargo workspace (crates/*) that is the shared engine + CLI. Has its own CI (.github/workflows/rust.yml, Rust 1.95.0, Linux+Windows+macOS).
  • tauri-app/src-tauri/ — the desktop app's Rust backend (separate crate, not part of the rust/ workspace). Has its own CI (.github/workflows/tauri-app.yml).

The engine logic lives in rust/crates/runtime/ (conversation loop, prompts, memory, tools, agent supervisor, streaming events). The Tauri backend wraps/reimplements engine concerns for the desktop and exposes them over IPC.

Commands

Rust workspace (rust/)

cargo build --workspace
cargo test --workspace --exclude compat-harness        # exclude compat-harness (external checks)
cargo test -p runtime <test_name>                      # single test
cargo fmt --all -- --check
cargo clippy --workspace --all-features --exclude compat-harness -- -D warnings
cargo install --path crates/rusty-claude-cli --force   # install the `xolotl` CLI

Clippy runs with pedantic + -D warnings and unsafe_code = "forbid" (see workspace lints in rust/Cargo.toml) — new code must be clean under both.

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.
