OmniGlyph: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

OmniGlyph CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from diegosouzapw/OmniGlyph. It costs 987 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A repository instruction document for OmniGlyph, a proxy that compresses large language-model request content into small one-bit PNG pages when that reduces cost and passes a reading test. It also records how to install, build, test, run, and type-check the project.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when working on OmniGlyph to understand its source folders, run the build and tests, check types, start development servers, and follow project-specific rules.
Why use it?
It gives coding agents the project's architecture, conventions, commands, and required checks in one place. This reduces guesswork when changing a repository with specialized compression and billing logic.

Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md. Also seen: mentions CLAUDE.md; positional $N argument; mentions Claude Code.

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

OmniGlyph 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.

CLAUDE.md

This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.

Quick Start

pnpm install               # install deps
pnpm run build             # esbuild bundle → dist/ (Node + Workers entrypoints)
pnpm run typecheck         # tsc --noEmit (must be clean)
pnpm test                  # vitest run — full suite (can take >2 min; run in background)
pnpm run dev:node          # local proxy at http://127.0.0.1:47821 (tsx watch)
pnpm run dev:worker        # Cloudflare Workers host (wrangler dev)

Focused test runs (preferred while iterating): npx vitest run tests/<file>.test.ts.

Project at a Glance

Context-as-image compression proxy: rewrites bulky LLM request blocks (system prompt, tool docs, old history, large tool outputs) into dense 1-bit PNG pages with exact per-provider billing math. Only converts when the math wins, and only for models that passed the reading benchmark (fail-closed gate).

layer where what
Core src/core/ transform pipeline, exact billing (anthropic-vision.ts, gemini-model-profiles.ts), render cache, proxy logic
Render src/core/render* + assets/ 1-bit 5×8 glyph atlas (Spleen/Unifont-derived), reflow, PNG pages
Hosts src/node.ts · src/worker.ts local Node server (dashboard + events) · Cloudflare Workers
Public API src/core/index.ts billing math re-exported at package root (consumed by OmniRoute)
Benchmarks benchmarks/ billing-sweep + density-frontier harnesses; JSONL receipts in */results/
Tests tests/ vitest; includes docs-integrity (link rot + rebrand guard)

Key Conventions

  • Strict TDD: write the failing test first, watch it fail for the right reason, then the minimal implementation. No production code without a test.
  • Measurement before claims: any number in docs/README must have a receipt in benchmarks/*/results/. Measured decisions (see docs/benchmarks/BENCHMARKS.md) are not re-litigated without new data.
  • TypeScript strict, ESM only (.js import suffixes in TS source).
  • Comments state constraints the code can't show — not narration.
  • User-facing brand strings are OmniGlyph; binary/env prefix is omniglyph / OMNIGLYPH_*; data in ~/.omniglyph/, config in ~/.config/omniglyph/.

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.
