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

martin-loop 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.

What it actually says

Claude Code Instructions

Read AGENTS.md before making any change. AGENTS.md is the sole repository operating guide for agents.

Do not infer current release status from old branches, old PRs, old incident notes, audit documents, terminal history, or prior session handoffs.

For current version and release state, use only:

  • package.json
  • packages/mcp/package.json
  • docs/release/VERSION-LEDGER.md
  • current Git branch / commit state
  • current open PRs and required checks

Repository authority:

  • development authority: a separate private maintainer repository
  • public distribution: Keesan12/martin-loop

Required release order:

private branch → private PR → private merge → private-main health proof → public staging → promotion guard → public PR → public merge → publish → fresh-install / E2E proof.

Never develop directly in the public repository. Never bypass public-write or portability guards. Never use stale handoff files as release authority.

Release evidence and handoff artifacts must live in a persistent repo-owned location such as .release/<version>/; do not place MartinLoop release work in C:\\tmp, OS temp directories, or disposable scratch folders.

When a required gate fails, investigate only that exact failure. Do not start broad audits, revive superseded release processes, or create new acceptance phases unless a new deterministic P0/P1 requires it.

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.
