What is whodb CLAUDE.md?

A short set of Claude Code instructions for WhoDB, a data-management project. It explains when to use planning, how to handle enterprise-only folders, and how to organize parallel work.

Planning multi-file changes, reviewing work, using separate work areas, and handling files related to WhoDB’s enterprise edition.

It helps an agent choose a safer workflow for complex changes and avoid crossing the boundary into enterprise code.

About the project

WhoDB is a self-hosted workspace for exploring and managing databases through a browser, desktop app, or terminal interface. Developers and data teams use it to browse and edit data, run queries, inspect table relationships, move data, and optionally ask questions through an AI provider. The catalogue includes add-ons for operating WhoDB and working with its database tools.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00096	$0.00096
Opus 5.5	$0.00038	$0.00038
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00019	$0.00019
Haiku 4.5	$0.00010	$0.00010

Measured 2mo ago against content hash 5743fb141600, method: parsed. Prices are Anthropic first-party input rates as of 2026-10-07, from the pricing page.

Security

Grade A, and why

whodb 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.

What it actually says

@AGENTS.md

Claude Code

Use plan mode for multi-file, risky, architectural, or ambiguous changes.
Use subagents only for bounded sidecar work: exploration, review, test triage, or documentation lookup.
Prefer separate worktrees for parallel implementation sessions.
When a task touches ee/, follow ee/AGENTS.md; if running Claude Code inside ee/, ee/CLAUDE.md imports that overlay.

Changes

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.
