orchardist: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

orchardist CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from drewdrewthis/orchardist. It costs 2,674 tokens per session, scanned A, a copy of claude-code-trace AGENTS.md, MIT.

Project instructions for Orchardist, a Rust tool that shows Git worktrees, terminal sessions, remote repositories, and SSH connections in one dashboard.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when changing Orchardist's architecture, GraphQL API, data model, Rust code, terminal interface, or live state updates.
Why use it?
They keep the tool's command-line and visual interfaces consistent by assigning data gathering and joining to the daemon and preserving documented design rules.

Written for Claude Code: PostToolUse hook event. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions Claude Code; mentions AGENTS.md.

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

orchardist CLAUDE.md scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 8d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 195 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Expert Rust engineer: async CLI, TUI (ratatui), process orchestration (git/tmux/ssh), cache pipelines.

Git Orchard

Worktree/session dashboard. Aggregates git, tmux, GitHub, SSH into TUI + JSON API. Binary: ~/Library/pnpm/orchardtarget/release/orchard.

Architecture

See @docs/architecture.md. Enforce:

  • Functional core, imperative shell — pure build_state() joins, shell fetches
  • SRP, files ≤ 300 lines
  • OrchardState = single data model (TUI + --json)
  • ADRs in docs/adr/

Repo constitution: RULES.md. 74 numbered rules (L/R/S/O/M/T). Read before any architectural change. Cite rule IDs in PR review (e.g. R3 violation). Codified in ADR-023.

Coordination: @AGENTS.md

Rules

GraphQL is the protocol (ADR-016, 017, 018)

Clients call daemon GraphQL. No client-side git/gh/tmux exec. No client-side joins or caches — daemon owns state. Subscriptions drive live updates. File a daemon issue for gaps; don't paper over client-side.

Exception: title fallback chain (agentName → customTitle → branch → cwd → uuid) stays client-side; GraphQL doesn't fluent-coalesce.

Data + graph modeling (ADR-022)

Before any new resolver, provider method, fragment, or dataloader, run the 3-step gate:

  1. Name the node. Pane, Worktree, Conversation, ClaudeInstance, PullRequest, ... If none fits, the first deliverable is naming a new one — not a wrapper around an old one.
  2. Name the lookup axes. ByID, ByCwd, ByCommand, BySession. Arity in the name (PaneByID → one, PanesByCommand → many).
  3. Wire provider → dataloader → resolver. Provider exposes typed by-axis methods that build indices on its snapshot. Loader batches per request. Resolver is a thin Load(key) + projection.

Smells (stop, redesign): *Seeder / *Synthesizer / *Adapter that emits type X to fit a reader of type Y; resolver bodies with for loops over provider snapshots; provider methods named For<SpecificCaller> instead of By<Axis>; the same data served through two paths.

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.
