k9-aif-framework: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

k9-aif-framework CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from k9aif/k9-aif-framework. It costs 1,918 tokens per session, scanned B, original, Apache-2.0.

A project instruction file for K9-AIF, a framework for governed, observable systems that can use multiple AI agents. It defines architecture roles and rules for extending components without breaking their contracts.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when designing or changing K9-AIF components, solution implementations, diagrams, or workflows that involve architecture and multiple agents.
Why use it?
It keeps new implementations compatible with existing architecture and makes system behavior easier to govern and inspect.

Instructions file for Claude Code

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

This is k9aif/k9-aif-framework's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on k9-aif-framework 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 k9-aif-framework 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 B, and why

k9-aif-framework CLAUDE.md scanned grade B with 1 finding 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.

A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 162 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

CLAUDE.md

Guidance for Claude Code in this repository. Full prior version (extended config/persistence/MCP/adapter-table reference material) preserved in old-CLAUDE.md. Step-by-step recipes live in SKILLS.mdread it directly when doing one of those tasks; it is no longer auto-imported here, so don't assume its contents are already in context.

What this is

K9-AIF: architecture-first framework for governed, observable, multi-agent systems, built on OOA/OOD/TOGAF discipline. ABB (Architecture Building Block) = abstract contract in k9_core/. SBB (Solution Building Block) = concrete implementation extending an ABB, in examples/<App>/ or k9_projects/<App>/. Liskov Substitution and Open/Closed are non-negotiable — new capability extends a Base<Concern> contract, never edits one.

Diagrams default to PlantUML. BPMN swim lanes: horizontal bands top-to-bottom, labels left, activities left-to-right within a lane.

BaseComponent does not extend ABC. An ABB needing both infra (logging/monitoring/message bus) and enforced abstract methods extends (BaseComponent, ABC) — correct multiple inheritance, not redundant. Never assume a parent already extends ABC without checking.

Execution hierarchy

Event → K9EventRouter → known event_type → domain topic
                       → unknown → intent.in → IntentOrchestrator → domain topic
domain topic → Orchestrator → 1+ Squads → 1+ Agents → LLM

Three-layer decoupling — never violate: each layer knows only the layer directly below it. Router imports/references Orchestrators only, never Squads or Agents. Orchestrator imports Squads only, never Agents. Squad YAML has no orchestrator: field; Agent YAML has no squad:/routing: fields. Agent registration happens in the app entry point, not inside the orchestrator.

Cardinality: Router 1→N Orchestrators, Orchestrator 1→N Squads (execute_squads(..., parallel=True/False)), Squad 1→N Agents (sequential flow).

LLM calls — one path only

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.
