autobeat: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

autobeat CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from dean0x/autobeat. It costs 5,031 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Project instructions for Autobeat, an MCP server that delegates tasks to background Claude Code sessions and stores task data in SQLite.

In plain words
What is it for?
Working on the Autobeat repository, including starting its MCP server, running development mode, and running its grouped test suites.
Why use it?
It gives Claude Code the project context and the commands needed to install, build, run, develop, and test the server.

Instructions file for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions CLAUDE.md; mentions Claude Code.

This is dean0x/autobeat's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on autobeat 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 autobeat 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

autobeat 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 7d 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.md

This file provides project-specific guidance for Claude Code when working on Autobeat.

Project Overview

Autobeat is an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that enables task delegation to background Claude Code instances. It uses hybrid event-driven architecture with workers, task dependencies (DAG-based), and SQLite persistence.

Core Concept: Transform a dedicated server into an AI powerhouse - orchestrate multiple Claude Code instances through one main session for parallel development across repositories.

Quick Start

# Install and build
npm install
npm run build

# Run MCP server
beat mcp start
# or: node dist/cli.js mcp start

# Development mode (auto-reload)
npm run dev

# Test - Smart Grouping (v0.3.2+)
npm run test:core           # Core domain logic (~3s) - SAFE in Claude Code
npm run test:handlers       # Service handlers (~3s) - SAFE in Claude Code
npm run test:services       # Service-layer tests (~2s) - SAFE in Claude Code
npm run test:repositories   # Data layer (~2s) - SAFE in Claude Code
npm run test:adapters       # MCP adapter (~2s) - SAFE in Claude Code
npm run test:implementations # Other implementations (~2s) - SAFE in Claude Code
npm run test:cli            # CLI tests (~2s) - SAFE in Claude Code
npm run test:tmux           # Tmux unit tests (~2s) - SAFE in Claude Code
npm run test:tmux:integration # Tmux integration tests (~3s) - SAFE in Claude Code
npm run test:channels       # Channel tests (~3s) - SAFE in Claude Code
npm run test:integration    # Integration tests - SAFE in Claude Code
npm test                    # ⚠️  BLOCKED - Prints warning and exits (technical safeguard)
npm run test:all            # Full suite - Use in local terminal/CI only
npm run test:worker-handler # Worker tests (OPTIONAL)
npm run test:coverage       # With coverage

Why grouped tests? Vitest workers accumulate memory across test files. Grouped tests provide fast feedback and prevent resource exhaustion. Individual groups are safe to run from Claude 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.
