orbit CLAUDE.md

orbit CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for coding agents from danieljhkim/orbit. It costs 1,833 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A project guide for coding agents working on Orbit, covering approval rules, task handling, branches, builds, linting, and architecture. Orbit is a software project organized across multiple Rust code packages.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when planning Orbit work, updating tasks, adding dependencies between packages, building or checking code, and deciding which branch to use.
Why use it?
It prevents agents from committing or editing project records incorrectly and clarifies how changes move between development and release branches.

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

orbit 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.

Orbit — agent guide

Project instructions for agents working on Orbit (loaded as both AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md).

Rules

  • Don't commit until the Orbit task has been explicitly approved by the human.
  • Don't invent task IDs — get them from orbit.task.add. Don't edit task files directly — use orbit.task.update.
  • Don't add cross-crate dependencies without checking and updating ARCHITECTURE.md. If a new edge is genuinely needed, make its ownership and direction explicit in the same change.
  • Historical ADRs are being retired and are not an authority. Do not search for, cite, or use ADRs to justify a decision. Judge from the current code, runtime behavior, tests, documented constraints, and the requirements at hand.

Branching

  • main is the release / production branch — only release merges and hotfixes land here. Default base for external install URLs, npm/Homebrew consumers, and the GitHub default-branch view.
  • agent-main is the dev integration branch — every task PR targets agent-main.
  • Promotion: each release tags on agent-main, then merges agent-main → main via a merge commit. See RELEASING.md §10b.
  • Hotfixes branch from main, merge to main, tag a patch release on main, then back-merge main → agent-main in the same session. See RELEASING.md §Hotfix flow.

Build / Lint

make ci-fast (fmt-check + guardrail scripts; no compile) and make ci-lint (the same workspace-wide, all-target clippy pass as CI, with warnings denied) must both pass before a task moves to review. Each task therefore pays for one workspace clippy compile; cold runs can take several minutes, while warm runs reuse Cargo's incremental cache. The full make ci is the canonical merge gate via .github/workflows/ci.yml on every PR — don't run it per task locally.

Architecture

Crate layering, per-crate responsibilities, and scoping rules live in ARCHITECTURE.md. Read it before adding a new crate, a new dependency edge, or a new persisted artifact.

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.
