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

orbital-express 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 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.

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.

Claude Code specifics

  • Skills live in .claude/skills/. They auto-invoke when a task matches their description, or run them explicitly (e.g. /create-feature). Prefer the skill for any task it covers.
  • Nested context: app/CLAUDE.md (if present) loads automatically when you work inside app/. Keep deep, area-specific notes there rather than bloating this file.
  • Full rulebook: docs/conventions.txt is the authoritative, detailed rules — read it on demand for anything ambiguous; AGENTS.md summarizes the non-negotiables.
  • Personal settings go in .claude/settings.local.json (gitignored). Shared, committed settings go in .claude/settings.json.
  • Docs stay in sync (enforced): a committed PostToolUse hook (.claude/hooks/doc-sync-reminder.py, wired in .claude/settings.json) fires whenever you edit any documentation surface (documentation.html, README.md, docs/*, AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, database/schema.sql, any SKILL.md) and reminds you to reconcile the others. Follow the sync-docs skill — a doc change isn't done until the parallel surfaces and the relevant skill(s) agree.
Changes

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.
