claudity: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

claudity CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from danielrmay/claudity. It costs 642 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Repository instructions for maintaining Claudity, a Claude Code plugin adapted from Microsoft's Clarity Agent, with strict rules for vendored files and testing.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when modifying vendored code, updating upstream references, changing tests, or maintaining the plugin's Python and Windows compatibility.
Why use it?
They help contributors preserve the connection to the upstream project, keep the plugin dependency-free and portable, and provide evidence for behavior changes.

Instructions file for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md. Also seen: mentions .claude-plugin; mentions Claude Code.

This is danielrmay/claudity's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on claudity 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 claudity configures →

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

claudity 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 50 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Claudity — contributor context

Claude Code plugin port of Microsoft's Clarity Agent. Most files here are VENDORED from microsoft/clarity-agent under a strict porting contract — read the contract before editing anything:

  • PORTING.md — substitution rules; every deviation in a vendored file must trace to a rule
  • UPSTREAM.md — pin, vendoring map, re-sync and release procedure
  • TESTING.md — the tiered harness and what each tier proves
  • CONTRIBUTING.md — upstream-first policy, adding thinkers

Invariants

  • Vendored files: after touching anything in the upstream.json watch set, run python3 scripts/upstream_audit.py — unexplained changed lines fail CI. Vendored headers carry the pin; pin-consistency tests fail until headers, upstream.json, and UPSTREAM.md agree.
  • Zero dependencies: python3 stdlib only, nothing pip-installed — including the MCP server (hand-rolled stdio JSON-RPC; "Transport" note in PORTING.md).
  • Windows portability: all file I/O passes encoding="utf-8" (the locale default corrupts unicode markdown) and path comparisons in tests use as_posix(). The windows-latest CI job enforces both under cp1252 — never set PYTHONUTF8 in CI; it masks exactly these bugs. The e2e harness is POSIX-only (its tests skip on win32).
  • Versioning: bump .claude-plugin/plugin.json and .claude-plugin/marketplace.json together (test-enforced). Releases via claude plugin tag.

Testing

  • Tier 1 (free, run always): .venv/bin/python -m pytest tests/ -q plus the audit above. Tier 0: claude plugin validate ..
  • Tier 2 (paid, local): tests/e2e/run.sh — see TESTING.md for model floors and stress mode. Sessions run against a frozen, hash-verified snapshot of the plugin, never this repo — plugin-content edits during a background run are safe, but don't edit the harness scripts (tests/e2e/) mid-run.
  • If the post-run repo-dirty warning ever fires, the snapshot indirection leaked — investigate, don't shrug.
  • scripts/mcp_server.py edits need a session restart (or /reload-plugins) interactively; pytest spawns fresh server processes, so tests always see current code.

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.
