webdown CLAUDE.md

A project instruction file for Webdown, a Python project, covering development practices, version numbering, and build and test commands.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when working on Webdown code, documentation, releases, dependency setup, or tests.
Why use it?
It gives the coding agent repository-specific rules, including how to handle uncertainty and how changes affect version numbers.

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 B, and why

webdown 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 2d 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.

Unrestricted tool accessmediumExcessive agency

A wildcard tool grant or "run any command" leaves no least-privilege boundary at all.

- Use `./scripts/run.sh <command>` to run any command in the correct environment

Webdown Development Guide

Working with Claude

  • No hallucinations: If Claude is uncertain about any answer or how to do something, it should explicitly say so rather than guessing or making up information.
  • Clear uncertainty: When encountering ambiguous requirements or unknown aspects of the codebase, Claude should openly acknowledge uncertainty and ask for clarification.
  • Providing alternatives: When unsure about a specific solution, Claude should present multiple options along with their potential trade-offs.

Version Management (Semantic Versioning)

We follow Semantic Versioning for version numbering (MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH):

  • Patch version (0.4.1 → 0.4.2): Documentation updates, bug fixes, and other changes that don't modify the API
  • Minor version (0.4.2 → 0.5.0): New features or enhancements that maintain backward compatibility
  • Major version (0.9.0 → 1.0.0): Breaking changes, significant rewrites, or major feature overhauls

When making changes, choose the appropriate version increment based on the impact of your changes.

Modern Python Development Setup (Python 3.10+)

Build & Testing Commands

  • Install dependencies: poetry install
  • Run all tests: poetry run pytest or make test
  • Run specific test: poetry run pytest webdown/tests/test_file.py::TestClass::test_function
  • Run with coverage: poetry run pytest --cov=webdown or make test-coverage
  • Run integration tests: poetry run pytest --integration or make integration-test
  • Type checking: poetry run mypy webdown or make type-check
  • Linting: poetry run flake8 webdown or make lint
  • Formatting: poetry run black webdown && poetry run isort webdown or make format
  • All checks: make all-checks
  • Building package: poetry build or make build

Path-Independent Environment Management

  • We use a path-independent approach that works regardless of where the repo is cloned
  • Poetry is configured to create virtualenvs in-project: poetry config virtualenvs.in-project true
  • Use ./scripts/run.sh <command> to run any command in the correct environment
  • Examples:
    • Run tests: ./scripts/run.sh pytest
    • Run pre-commit: ./scripts/run.sh pre-commit run
    • Run any other command: ./scripts/run.sh python -m webdown.cli

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.
