Instructions file for Claude Code

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

This is Evyasys-Software-Solutions/EvyaGovernance's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on EvyaGovernance 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 EvyaGovernance configures →

Needs its repository: it reads a path above its own folder, which exists only inside the repository. The line is const { loadConfig, ensurePat } = require('../../scripts/lib/config');.

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

EvyaGovernance 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 13d 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.

EvyaGovernance — Claude Code Project Standards

1. Project Overview

EvyaGovernance is an AI-assisted SDLC delivery pipeline built by Evyasys Software Solutions. It integrates Claude Code skills with Azure DevOps and Microsoft Teams to automate the full story lifecycle: Plan (epic → stories → tasks) → Build (dev, review, checks) → Qa (test, sign-off).

Architecture layers (top to bottom)

Claude Agent (AI prompt + agent result)
        ↓
skills/evyasys-*/hooks.js          orchestration — save artefacts, confirm, call integrations
        ↓
scripts/lib/                        utilities — config, ado-map, dryrun, markdown-to-html
        ↓
scripts/integrations/               external service clients — azure_devops, teams_webhook
        ↓
.evyasys/                           per-project runtime state — board/, .ado-map.json, project.yaml
        ↓
Azure DevOps API  /  Teams webhook  external systems

Never cross layers upward. A lib utility must not import a hook. An integration must not import another integration. State flows downward only.

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.
