What is relay CLAUDE.md?

A project instruction file that tells a coding agent how the Relay support-ticket service is built, including its technology, constraints, and deployment setup.

Use it when working on Relay’s Python service, ticket-handling agent, live dashboard, deployment, or automated checks.

It gives the agent the project context needed to make changes that fit the existing service and avoid breaking its interfaces or operating limits.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.06298	$0.06298
Opus 5.5	$0.02519	$0.02519
Sonnet 5.5	$0.01260	$0.01260
Haiku 4.5	$0.00630	$0.00630

Security

Grade A, and why

relay 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 2mo 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.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

Project

Relay — Remaster

Relay is an AI support-triage agent built as a production service: it receives support tickets over a REST API, works each one autonomously with a hand-written agent loop on the Claude API (customer lookup, classification, grounded doc search, reply or escalation), and streams its reasoning as SSE. This milestone remasters the existing v1 into a portfolio showpiece: production-hardened, with real semantic retrieval and a polished live dashboard.

Core Value: A visitor hitting the live demo sees a credible, safe, observably-real AI agent service — impressive to read and watch, cheap to keep running.

Constraints

Budget: Live demo must stay cheap — single Fly machine, min_machines_running=0, per-run cost budget retained; Voyage usage is index-once + tiny per-query cost
Tech stack: Python/FastAPI/SQLite/Claude API retained; no orchestration framework — the visible hand-written loop is a feature
Deploy: One container, no build step, existing Fly.io + GitHub Actions pipeline keeps working
Compatibility: SSE event contract and MCP tool surface stay backward compatible where practical; evals must keep passing

Technology Stack

Languages

Python 3.11+ (requires-python >=3.11 in pyproject.toml) - entire application (src/relay/)
HTML/CSS/JS (inline, no build step) - src/relay/main.py (DASHBOARD_HTML constant, a single-page dashboard with vanilla fetch/setInterval polling)
Markdown - knowledge base content in kb/*.md, consumed by keyword search tool
Bash - scripts/demo.sh (demo/smoke script)

Runtime

CPython 3.11+ (project floor) / 3.12 (CI, Docker) / 3.14 (local venv)
ASGI server: uvicorn[standard]>=0.30 (pyproject.toml), started via uvicorn relay.main:app (Dockerfile CMD, README quick start)
pip with pyproject.toml (PEP 621 style), build backend hatchling
No lockfile present (no requirements.txt, poetry.lock, or uv.lock) — dependency versions are floor-pinned only (>=)

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.
