cclint: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

cclint CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from felixgeelhaar/cclint. It costs 1,263 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A project instruction file for cclint, a TypeScript and Node.js tool that checks and improves CLAUDE.md context files. It documents the project structure, commands, and strict production checks.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when working on cclint, including running Vitest tests, using tsx during development, running the TypeScript compiler, and building for production.
Why use it?
It gives an AI coding assistant the repository-specific information needed to develop, test, lint, type-check, and build the project correctly.

Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md. Also seen: mentions CLAUDE.md; mentions Claude Code.

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

cclint 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 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.

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.

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

Project Overview

This is the CC Linter project - a TypeScript/Node.js tool designed to validate and optimize CLAUDE.md context files. The project follows a hexagonal architecture with a Core Linting Engine that is independent from its delivery mechanisms (CLI, IDE extensions).

Development Commands

# Development (uses tsx for fast execution)
npm test                # Run tests with Vitest
npm run test:watch      # Run tests in watch mode

# Production checks (uses tsc for strict type checking)
npm run typecheck      # Type check with TypeScript compiler
npm run lint           # Lint code
npm run build          # Build for production

# Package management
npm ci                 # Install dependencies (CI)
npm install            # Install dependencies

Architecture

The project uses a Domain-Driven Design approach with hexagonal architecture:

Core Domain Model

  • ContextFile: In-memory representation of a file being linted
  • Rule: Self-contained service that inspects a ContextFile and returns Violations
  • Violation: Entity representing a broken rule with Location and Severity
  • Location: Value object defining position of a Violation
  • Severity: Value object (Error, Warning, Info)
  • LintingResult: Root aggregate containing all Violations for a file

Architecture Layers

CLI  (cclint)      ──┐
MCP  (cclint-mcp)  ──┼──► Core Linting Engine (npm package)
LSP  (cclint-lsp)  ──┤     ├── Rules Engine (aggregates violations)
GitHub Action      ──┘     ├── createRules(config) factory + rule descriptors
                           ├── Individual Rules (implement Rule interface)
                           └── File System I/O (reads CLAUDE.md, config files)

All four entry points build their rule set from the single createRules(config) factory (src/rules/registry/), driven by canonical RULE_DESCRIPTORS — one source of truth for each rule's id, default-enabled flag, and metadata — so every entry point runs an identical, in-lock-step rule set.

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.
