widescreen-research: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

widescreen-research CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from glassBead-tc/widescreen-research. It costs 2,046 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A coding guide for a Go server that coordinates research workers running on Google Cloud. A coordinator assigns work to lightweight worker servers, called drones, that can run independently on Cloud Run.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when developing or testing the research coordinator, drone processes, cloud configuration, MCP server, or concurrency-related code.
Why use it?
It explains how to build, run, configure, and test the coordinator and workers so changes fit the distributed design.

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

widescreen-research 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.

Project Overview

widescreen-research is a bidirectional MCP server orchestrating distributed research drones on Google Cloud Platform. The system enables horizontal research at scale through a coordinator-worker architecture where a high-powered coordinator dynamically spawns lightweight drone MCP servers on Cloud Run.

Primary language: Go 1.24+

Commands

Building and Running

# Build all binaries
make build
go build ./cmd/coordinator ./cmd/drone

# Run coordinator locally
make run-coordinator
# or with custom config:
LOG_LEVEL=debug GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT=your-project-id GOOGLE_CLOUD_REGION=us-central1 go run ./cmd/coordinator

# Run drone locally
make run-drone
# or with custom config:
LOG_LEVEL=debug DRONE_TYPE=research EXA_API_KEY=dummy DRONE_ID=local-drone-1 go run ./cmd/drone

# Run widescreen-research MCP server
go run ./cmd/widescreen-research-mcp

Testing

# Run all tests with race detection and coverage
make test
go test -race -cover ./...

# Run tests for specific package
go test -v ./pkg/coordinator/...

# Note: Most packages currently have [no test files]. When adding tests, follow Go testing conventions.

Quality Checks

# Run all linters
make lint

# Run specific linters
make lint-go        # golangci-lint with auto-fix
make lint-docker    # hadolint for Dockerfiles

# Run security scans
make security-scan  # gosec + detect-secrets

# Pre-push validation (lint + test + security)
make pre-push

Docker

# Build Docker image
make docker
docker build -t widescreen/coordinator:dev .

# Run container
docker run --rm -p 8080:8080 widescreen/coordinator:dev

Git Hooks

# Install pre-commit hooks (formats code, runs linters, validates commits)
make install-hooks

# Remove hooks
make clean-hooks

Architecture

Coordinator-Drone Pattern

The system implements a distributed MCP architecture:

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.
