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

sdlc-plugin 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.

Origin

This is a copy

100% identical to sdlc-plugin AGENTS.md — 0 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.

What it actually says

Shared agent guidance

Work

  • Read relevant repository context before changing it.
  • Match the surrounding code, terminology, and conventions.
  • Make the smallest correct change. Use judgment about whether planning, delegation, documentation, or extra verification materially helps.
  • Match evidence to the claim: executable behavior, rendered visuals, or appropriate review and measurement.

Context

  • Load a skill only when the request matches its description. Do not preload unrelated skills or references.
  • Use devsql gather when prior work likely matters. Use devsql recall when only history is needed. Skip both for greenfield or trivial work.
  • For visual work, load visual-design and follow its acceptance process.

Communication

  • Use plain, literal, audience-specific US English.
  • Lead with the useful answer. Preserve decision-critical evidence. Avoid ceremony and repetition.
  • Limit immediate action lists to five items.
  • Use actionable-communication for consequential handoffs, blockers, completion reports, requirements, procedures, interface content, and formal documentation.
Changes

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.
