homebutler CLAUDE.md

homebutler CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from Higangssh/homebutler. It costs 628 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of project instructions for Homebutler, a Go program that provides command-line, terminal, web-dashboard, and MCP-server interfaces for a small home server. It also defines rules for verification and written project contributions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when developing Homebutler to run its formatting, linting, tests, and build checks, and to write consistent Conventional Commit messages and contribution text.
Why use it?
It reduces unverified claims and inconsistent commits, pull requests, comments, and code comments. It gives contributors a shared standard for checking changes before saying they work.

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

homebutler 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 — 74 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

homebutler

A single Go binary for running a small home server: CLI, TUI, web dashboard, and an MCP server, with no daemon and no database.

Verify before claiming anything works

gofmt -w .
go vet ./...
golangci-lint run
go test ./...
go build ./...

All five must pass. go test ./... takes several minutes — internal/network and internal/remote wait on real timeouts — so start it early rather than running it last.

Writing commits, PRs, and comments

Everything written here is read by users, contributors, and future maintainers. Match the voice already in git log and CHANGELOG.md.

No tool attribution

Never add Co-Authored-By: Claude, Generated with Claude Code, 🤖 badges, "AI-assisted" notes, or any other tool signature to a commit message, PR description, issue comment, review comment, or code comment. The author is the person who decided the change should exist.

Commit subjects

Conventional Commits (feat:, fix:, docs:, refactor:, test:, chore:), lowercase after the type, no trailing period, no emoji.

Describe the behaviour that changed, not the mechanism. A fix: subject should read as the symptom a user would have hit:

fix: watch check called systemd and pm2 targets clean without checking them
fix: don't blame the host key when the TOFU connection fails
feat: cap incident history so the watch directory stops growing forever
docs: lead the README with what homebutler actually prints

Not fix: update watch.go, and not fix: add nil check in checkTarget.

Commit bodies

Only when the subject cannot carry it. Explain why the change is correct or what breaks without it — the diff already shows what changed. A one-line commit with a good subject is finished, not lazy.

Note user-visible behaviour changes explicitly. Someone upgrading needs to know that settings which were silently inert will now take effect.

PR descriptions and comments

Lead with what changed and why it matters. Keep the implementation notes to the decisions a reviewer could not infer from the diff — what you reused, what you deliberately left alone, what fails fast and where.

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.
