Teamwork: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

Teamwork CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from JinPLu/Teamwork. It costs 621 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Instructions for Teamwork, a compatibility adapter that lets Claude Code use the project’s skills, helper roles, and managed policy. They describe supported roles and how the adapter behaves in Codex and Claude Code.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when installing or operating Teamwork, invoking its collaboration helpers, or checking Claude Code compatibility.
Why use it?
They clarify which workflows belong to the adapter and prevent agents from treating optional helpers or compatibility features as required project steps.

Instructions file for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions CLAUDE.md; mentions subagents.

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

Teamwork 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 1mo 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.

@AGENTS.md

Claude Code compatibility adapter

Claude Code is an explicit compatibility and development target, not part of the default Codex Update or validation path.

./install.sh claude

claude installs the Skills, helper roles, and the managed global policy. The policy is written to ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md. To print the same block without writing it, run ./install.sh claude-policy. Invoke Skills with /name in Claude Code (for example /teamwork-collaborate); Codex uses $name.

Agent availability and adapter freshness never block ordinary work. It creates no project document schema, Case lifecycle, mandatory Writer workflow, or migration state.

Roles and host modes

AskUserQuestion handles bounded Collaborate batches. Task/Agent dispatches the seven optional helpers: Researcher, Debugger, Challenger, Planner, Reviewer, Worker, and Writer. Writer is a Task/Agent helper role, not a Skill. Built-in Explore handles live local search, with thoroughness quick, medium, or very thorough; do not name a custom agent Explore, because that identifier overrides the built-in. Plan mode and the host Plan subagent are not substitutes for Teamwork Planner. Debugger stays because this host has no diagnosis mode. Claude still installs Debug, Goal, and Debugger.

The managed block in ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md owns the host mapping: which native surface is an editable candidate, which signal is acceptance, and which host paths are machine-local rather than Teamwork persistence — the plan file under ~/.claude/plans/ and auto memory under ~/.claude/projects/<project>/memory/. Accepted reusable results persist under

docs/teamwork/<kind>/

. This host reads CLAUDE.md and not AGENTS.md, so init-project also writes a small managed @AGENTS.md import and the project block is loaded through it.

A Cursor install that refreshes this Claude skill root still installs the full Claude set. When both same-named Teamwork skill copies exist under ~/.cursor/skills/ and ~/.claude/skills/, which copy a dual-host session reads is not guaranteed—keep both in sync via the installers.

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.
