greywall: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

greywall CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from GreyhavenHQ/greywall. It costs 749 tokens per session, scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

Project instructions for Greywall, a command-line sandbox that limits what commands can access on a computer and redirects network traffic through a controlled proxy.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them to set up Greywall, build and run it, execute tests, format Go code, and run static analysis and security checks.
Why use it?
They give coding agents and developers consistent commands for building, testing, formatting, and checking the project before changes are committed.

Instructions file for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md.

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

greywall 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 80 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Greywall

Deny-by-default command sandbox. Wraps commands with restricted filesystem access (current directory only by default) and transparent network redirection through greyproxy. Supports --learning mode to trace filesystem access and auto-generate config templates. Linux (bubblewrap + seccomp/Landlock/eBPF) and macOS (sandbox-exec Seatbelt profiles).

Build & Run

make setup          # install deps + lint tools (first time)
make build          # compile binary (downloads tun2socks)
make run            # build and run
./greywall --help   # CLI usage

Test

make test           # all unit + integration tests
make test-ci        # with coverage and race detection (-race -coverprofile)
GREYWALL_TEST_NETWORK=1 ./scripts/smoke_test.sh ./greywall  # smoke tests

Lint & Format

make fmt            # format with gofumpt
make lint           # golangci-lint (staticcheck, errcheck, gosec, govet, revive, gofumpt, misspell, etc.)

Always run make fmt && make lint before committing.

Code Conventions

  • Language: Go 1.25+
  • Formatter: gofumpt (enforced in CI)
  • Linter: golangci-lint v2 (config in .golangci.yml)
  • Import order: stdlib, third-party, local (github.com/GreyhavenHQ/greywall)
  • Platform code: build tags (//go:build linux, //go:build darwin) with *_stub.go for unsupported platforms
  • Error handling: custom error types (e.g., CommandBlockedError)
  • Logging: stderr with [greywall:component] prefixes
  • Config: JSON with comments (via tidwall/jsonc), optional pointer fields for three-state booleans

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.
