CLAUDE.md

clawops CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from dfridkin/clawops. It costs 2,305 tokens per session, scanned A, a copy of clawops AGENTS.md, MPL-2.0.

A set of project instructions for clawops, a TypeScript command-line tool that deploys self-hosted OpenClaw on cloud providers or local virtual machines. It explains the project's structure, commands, and rules.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when working on clawops code, including cloud provider adapters, deployment plans, Pulumi infrastructure, SSH transport, or its MCP server.
Why use it?
It gives a coding assistant the project context and constraints needed to make changes without violating its deployment, infrastructure, or security conventions.

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 dfridkin/clawops's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on clawops 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 clawops 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

clawops 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 18d 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.

Origin

This is a copy

86% identical to clawops AGENTS.md — 35 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

clawops

clawops is a TypeScript CLI that generates and applies infrastructure to deploy self-hosted OpenClaw across AWS, GCP, Azure, and local VMs. It uses the Pulumi Automation API (whose CLI clawops installs itself — ADR 0010) and exposes its operations as both a CLI surface and an MCP server so Claude Code, Cursor, and other agents can drive deployments deterministically.

Directory map

  • src/cli/ citty-based commands (one file per verb in commands/)
  • src/providers/ one folder per cloud; each implements ProviderAdapter (src/providers/types.ts, GENERATED from spec/providers.schema.json)
  • src/pulumi/ Pulumi components + Automation API wrapper. URN convention: clawops:<cat>:<Name> where category ∈ {infra, build, net, app, state}
  • src/mcp/ MCP server, tool definitions auto-generated from spec/mcp-tools.yaml
  • src/transport/ SSH (uses ssh2). Never shell out to /usr/bin/ssh
  • src/plan/ Maker plan generation, validation (ajv against spec/deploy-plan.schema.json), apply
  • src/config/ ~/.clawops/config.json management (no secrets — see R6)
  • spec/ machine-readable specs (JSON Schema, YAML). Treat as ground truth (R-meta-1)
  • docs/ narrative architecture, ADRs, per-provider guides
  • .claude/skills/ invokable procedures (/add-provider, /release, /openclaw-config, /tdd)
  • .claude/rules/ path-scoped rules loaded on demand

Commands

  • pnpm dev run CLI from src
  • pnpm build tsup build to dist/
  • pnpm test vitest, parallel
  • pnpm test:changed vitest --changed; use this during edit loops
  • pnpm typecheck tsc --noEmit
  • pnpm lint eslint --max-warnings=0
  • pnpm gen:schemas emit src/providers/types.ts and src/mcp/tools/_generated.ts from spec/
  • pnpm gen:schemas --check CI check that committed generated files match spec
  • pnpm verify:mcp drive the built MCP server over stdio: tool list, annotations, elicitation, stdout purity
  • pnpm verify:host-agent run the built host agent from a directory with no node_modules and call every tool
  • pnpm verify:docker build the Glama image and run the same protocol probe against the container
  • pnpm changeset record a release note (see /release skill)

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.
