agent-context-kit: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

agent-context-kit CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from Cynrath/agent-context-kit. It costs 919 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A CLAUDE.md instruction file for AgentContextKit, a project that provides context-management tools for coding agents. It defines the project workflow, required checks, task documentation process, and repository rules.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when working on AgentContextKit to run the required version, doctor, scan, and task commands; follow task-first development; and check the repository before committing.
Why use it?
It tells agents how to use the project’s own command-line tool and prevents invalid validation steps or accidental commits of generated files.

Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md. Also seen: mentions AGENTS.md.

This is Cynrath/agent-context-kit's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on agent-context-kit 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 agent-context-kit configures →

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

agent-context-kit 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 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.

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 Project Context

Use the same repository rules as AGENTS.md (authoritative for all agents).

Dogfood / ACKit-First

This repository IS AgentContextKit. Every agent session must dogfood the tool.

  • Before ANY task: run node dist/cli/index.js --version, node dist/cli/index.js doctor, node dist/cli/index.js scan --ci.
  • Create new task docs with node dist/cli/index.js task "<title>" first, then fill/refine the generated Markdown.
  • Do not create task docs manually unless the CLI fails. If it fails, record the exact failure.
  • All validation uses the repository-built CLI: node dist/cli/index.js <command>. The old global .NET ackit tool and any dotnet run invocation are not valid validation tools on this branch.
  • Run node dist/cli/index.js doctor and node dist/cli/index.js scan --ci before every final commit.
  • Never commit generated .ackit/, reports, SARIF, prompt packs, context exports, package artifacts, packed tarballs, or temp outputs.
  • Preserve the task-first workflow, legacy-release immutability, and no-network/default safety rules.

Workflow

  • Task-first: every implementation change starts from docs/tasks/active/.
  • Continuous progress: do not stop between documented tasks; proceed through them in order.

Commit Completeness Hard Rule

  • Before any push, run git status and confirm the working tree is clean.
  • Never leave a newly created .md task file, plan, queue row, or test file uncommitted. New files must be added and committed in the same logical commit that creates them, or in an immediately following commit, before any push.

Stack

  • TypeScript (strict ESM) + Node.js >= 22
  • pnpm (packageManager pinned), Vitest, Biome
  • GitHub Actions: .github/workflows/ci.yml

Repository Health

  • README: yes
  • LICENSE: yes
  • SECURITY: yes
  • Tests: yes
  • CI: yes
  • Agent instructions: yes

Release Status

  • Source-checkout version: package.json is the single source of truth (see Version truth in AGENTS.md — this file stays version-agnostic and never names a current release number). Published stable: the latest immutable npm/GitHub Release. 0.1.1/0.1.0 remain as historical releases; docs/v0.2.0/** is historical, not current governance.
  • npm publish, tags, and GitHub Releases are user-authorized actions only (see Controlled-release governance in AGENTS.md). Automated publishing runs ONLY through the tag-triggered .github/workflows/release.yml after explicit user authorization; master pushes never publish.
  • Legacy .NET line is frozen and immutable: NuGet AgentContextKit 1.0.0-rc.1 (exact tag/release/assets/attestations at repository commit 258918b33c3d1359aac967604ee524e8b66ddf02) and earlier prereleases remain untouchable; do not republish, reuse, move, replace, or delete them. Historical failed recovery evidence remains preserved.

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.
