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

clawstash 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 4d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 158 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

CLAUDE.md -- Project Guide

Session Start -- Read Order

MEMORY.md -> SCRATCHPAD.md; BACKLOG.md only when prior findings come up; skip what is missing. agent_docs/* and skills load on demand, never up front.

Workflow Triggers

Skills (.claude/skills/<name>/SKILL.md): done ("done" / "fertig"; never auto-runs a review, and does not push unless asked) · pr · basic-review · basic-sec-review · rollback · ci (which workflows actually run: agent_docs/development-notes.md -> CI/CD) · stuck · beacon · verify (browser UI check) · scheduler (bare /loop: .claude/loop.md) · orca (/orca <objective>). Diagram -> agent_docs/diagram_prompt.md. Findings -> BACKLOG.md, knowledge -> MEMORY.md / SCRATCHPAD.md (agent_docs/backlog_process.md, memory_process.md).

Output Languages

Chat to the user: the user's language (default German) -- skill report shapes fix the structure, not the language -- technical terms English and never translated. Everything else English -- code, comments, log output, UI strings, commits (Conventional Commits), PRs, issues, every generated file. Term list: agent_docs/autonomy.md -> Never-translate term list.

Performance / Modes

Model: the session's, never pinned. Plan mode for non-trivial strategy only. Reference: agent_docs/autonomy.md -> Mode reference.

Caveman Mode -- chat compression (default full)

Chat, status and confirmations only -- never files, code, commits, PR bodies, issue comments. At full: drop filler, pleasantries, hedging and articles; fragments are fine for status lines. Shorten by selection, not compression: cut what would not change the reader's next move; no abbreviations, arrow chains or invented shorthand in any mode; code and error strings verbatim. Never compressed: the closing summary, security warnings, irreversible-action confirmations, the Handoff Prompt. caveman lite|full|ultra switches, stop caveman turns it off for the session. Full wording: agent_docs/autonomy.md -> Caveman Mode.

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.
