genlayer-project-boilerplate CLAUDE.md

genlayer-project-boilerplate CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for coding agents from genlayerlabs/genlayer-project-boilerplate. It costs 1,636 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Coding instructions for GenLayer Project Boilerplate, a starter project for intelligent contracts, which are programs that run on a blockchain-like network. They cover Python contracts, tests, a Next.js web interface, and deployment commands.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when editing or checking Python contracts, running direct or integration tests, developing the frontend, selecting a network, or deploying contracts.
Why use it?
They show an agent how to run the appropriate fast or full tests and how the contract, frontend, and deployment parts connect. This reduces mistakes when changing blockchain logic or its interface.

About the project

GenLayer Project Boilerplate is a starter codebase for building a GenLayer use case, demonstrated by a football betting game implemented with an intelligent contract. Developers use it to develop and test GenLayer contracts with web access, language-model integration, linting, and a Next.js frontend. The catalogue instruction supports the project's development workflow.

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

genlayer-project-boilerplate 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 6d 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.

Quick Commands

# Linting
genvm-lint check contracts/football_bets.py    # Lint a contract

# Testing
pytest tests/direct/ -v                        # Direct mode tests (fast, no Studio)
gltest tests/integration/ -v -s                # Integration tests (requires Studio)

# Deployment
genlayer network                               # Select network
genlayer deploy                                # Deploy contracts

# Frontend
cd frontend && npm run dev                     # Start frontend dev server

Architecture

contracts/          # Python intelligent contracts

Frontend stack: Next.js 15, React 19, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, TanStack Query, Wagmi/Viem, MetaMask wallet integration.

Development Workflow

  1. Write/modify contract in contracts/
  2. Lint: genvm-lint check contracts/your_contract.py
  3. Test direct: pytest tests/direct/ -v
  4. Start Studio and deploy: genlayer deploy
  5. Test integration: gltest tests/integration/ -v -s
  6. Run frontend: cd frontend && npm run dev

Contract Development

Contracts are Python files in /contracts/ using the GenLayer SDK:

from genlayer import *

class MyContract(gl.Contract):
    data: TreeMap[Address, str]

    def __init__(self):
        self.data = TreeMap()

    @gl.public.view
    def get_data(self, addr: Address) -> str:
        return self.data.get(addr, "")

    @gl.public.write
    def set_data(self, value: str):
        self.data[gl.message.sender_address] = value

Decorators:

  • @gl.public.view — Read-only methods
  • @gl.public.write — State-modifying methods
  • @gl.public.write.payable — Methods accepting value

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.
