neatcodeai CLAUDE.md

A set of instructions for working on a TypeScript monorepo, a repository containing multiple related packages. It covers a command-line tool, an MCP server, a code graph stored in SQLite, and project testing.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for contributing to the neatcodeai repository, including parsing TypeScript projects, syncing a code graph, using its CLI and MCP server, and running the Vitest test suite.
Why use it?
It gives coding agents the repository context and the commands needed to build, test, run, and smoke-test the project.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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

neatcodeai 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 yesterday.

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.

Repository Status

Monorepo scaffolded (pnpm workspaces + TypeScript + tsup + Vitest). Three packages under packages/:

  • @neatcodeai/core — parser, graph, sync, query (consumed by cli + mcp)
  • @neatcodeai/cli — binary neatcode (ESM, shebang via tsup banner)
  • @neatcodeai/mcp — MCP stdio server neatcode-mcp (11 tools wired)

Working end-to-end: neatcode init + neatcode sync + neatcode ask against a TS repo (ts-morph parser → SQLite graph at .neatcode/graph.db), with file-hash cache, .neatcodeignore honoring, batched transactions, and confidence labels on nodes/edges. MCP server exposes 11 tools over stdio (query_graph, find_node, trace_flow, validate_diff, get_rules, propose_rule_from_prompt, accept_proposed_rule, derive_candidates, accept_derived_candidates, get_repo_overview, add_note). Test suite via pnpm test (vitest).

The PRD (repo-brain-prd-v0.2.md) is the spec; the locked v0.1 design lives in Claude memory (project_v01_design.md) and supersedes any conflicting line in this file.

Build / Test / Run

pnpm install              # one-time setup (auto-builds better-sqlite3 native module)
pnpm build                # build all three packages
pnpm typecheck            # tsc --noEmit across packages
pnpm test                 # vitest run (root config)
pnpm test:watch           # vitest watch
pnpm clean                # remove dist/ from each package

# Smoke-test the CLI after build
node packages/cli/dist/index.js --help

@neatcodeai/core re-exports from ./dist/index.js (ESM, dts emitted). @neatcodeai/mcp depends on it via workspace:*. @neatcodeai/cli depends on both core and mcp (so npm i -g @neatcodeai/cli puts neatcode and neatcode-mcp on PATH in one shot — added in v0.1.1).

MCP server: wiring to Claude Code

The repo ships an .mcp.json at the root that points Claude Code at the locally-built neatcode-mcp binary (absolute path). When you open Claude Code in this repo, it reads .mcp.json and starts the server.

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.
