daydreams: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

daydreams CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from daydreamsai/daydreams. It costs 2,281 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Repository instructions for Daydreams, a TypeScript framework for building AI agents that keep state while they work. They document the project structure, commands, testing, formatting, and documentation workflow.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when changing Daydreams code, especially the core package, documentation, build scripts, tests, or formatting. They also explain how the main agent components fit together.
Why use it?
They give a coding agent the project-specific context needed to make consistent changes and run the right checks. This reduces guesswork about packages, builds, tests, and documentation.

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

daydreams 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 9d 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.

Project Architecture

This is Daydreams, a TypeScript framework for building stateful AI agents. The architecture is designed around:

Core Components (packages/core/)

  • Agent (dreams.ts): Main orchestrator managing lifecycle, context state, and execution
  • Context System (context.ts): Type-safe isolated state management for conversations/tasks
  • Memory System (memory/): Dual-tier storage (working memory + persistent storage)
  • Task Runner (task.ts): Async operation management with concurrency control
  • Engine (engine.ts): Execution engine processing inputs and coordinating actions

Package Structure

  • packages/core/ - Core framework with agent, context, memory, and task systems
  • packages/* - Extensions for platforms (discord, twitter, telegram), storage (supabase, chroma, mongo), chains (hyperliquid, defai), utilities (cli, create-agent, synthetic)
  • examples/ - Working examples organized by use case (basic, chains, games, social platforms)
  • clients/example-ui/ - React frontend demonstrating agent capabilities
  • docs/ - Next.js documentation site

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.
