agent-system: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

agent-system CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from DeevsDeevs/agent-system. It costs 560 tokens per session, scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

Project instructions for DeevsDeevs/agent-system covering coding practices, comments, Git workflow, and required use of Context7 for current library documentation. Context7 is a documentation lookup service for software libraries.

In plain words
What is it for?
Guiding work in the specified repository, requiring documentation lookups before using external libraries, and standardizing code comments, commits, branches, and project practices.
Why use it?
They give agents consistent project rules and reduce the risk of using outdated library information. They also define expectations for code quality, comments, commit messages, and branch names.

Instructions file for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md.

This is DeevsDeevs/agent-system's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on agent-system 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-system 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

agent-system 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.

Baseline Project Guidelines

MCP Tools

Context7 - MUST USE

When to use:

  • Always when looking up library documentation
  • When troubleshooting library-specific issues
  • Before implementing features with external dependencies

How to use:

  1. mcp__context7__resolve-library-id - Find the library ID
  2. mcp__context7__get-library-docs - Get documentation with the ID from step 1

Why: Ensures current, accurate documentation rather than outdated knowledge.

Code Quality

Comments

Only write comments for:

  • Complex algorithms that aren't immediately obvious
  • Non-obvious workarounds for known issues/bugs
  • Critical "why" explanations that code cannot express

99% of code should be self-explanatory through:

  • Clear, descriptive naming
  • Proper structure and organization
  • Following language best practices

Git Workflow

Commit Messages

Use Conventional Commits format:

  • feat: - New features
  • fix: - Bug fixes
  • refactor: - Code refactoring
  • docs: - Documentation changes
  • test: - Test updates
  • chore: - Maintenance tasks

Example: feat: add user authentication system

Branch Naming

Use type prefixes:

  • feature/ - New features
  • fix/ - Bug fixes
  • refactor/ - Code refactoring

Example: feature/user-authentication

Engineering Philosophy

Approach

  • Pragmatic over perfect - Ship working solutions, iterate if needed
  • Question assumptions - Always ask clarifying questions before building
  • YAGNI - Don't over-engineer; build what's needed now
  • KISS - Prefer simple solutions over complex ones

Communication Style

  • Ask questions when requirements are unclear or ambiguous
  • Brainstorm ideas - discuss different approaches
  • Find optimal approach - balance simplicity, maintainability, and effectiveness
  • Avoid over-engineering - question if complexity is truly necessary
  • Be concise - get to the point, focus on solutions

Venue Context

Use the venue-expert skill for exchange-specific context. Invoke it when:

  • Starting any research involving exchange data
  • Debugging trading system issues (feed, order, session problems)
  • Needing venue mechanics: order types, matching rules, session times, data formats, regulatory quirks

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.
