pibun: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

pibun CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from khairold/pibun. It costs 3,749 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A project instruction file for PiBun, a desktop application for the Pi coding agent. It describes a monorepo, meaning one repository containing several related packages, including a React interface, a Bun server, and a desktop wrapper.

In plain words
What is it for?
Understanding communication between the user interface, server, desktop webview, and Pi’s RPC process, and making changes within the project’s TypeScript, React, Bun, and Electrobun structure.
Why use it?
It explains which component owns each responsibility, helping agents avoid duplicating session logic or putting code in the wrong layer. It also records the project’s technology and architecture choices.

Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md. Also seen: mentions CLAUDE.md; mentions Codex.

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

pibun 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 2mo 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.

Project Identity

PiBun — A desktop GUI for the Pi coding agent, built with Electrobun.

  • Runtime: Bun (monorepo with workspaces)
  • Language: TypeScript (strict)
  • Server: Bun HTTP + WebSocket — thin bridge to Pi's RPC mode
  • Web: React 19 + Vite + Zustand + Tailwind CSS v4
  • Desktop: Electrobun (Bun-native webview, no Chromium)
  • No Effect, no Schema — plain TypeScript + Zustand everywhere

Core principle: Pi handles state. The server is a thin bridge. Don't reimplement what Pi already does.

Pi manages: session persistence, model registry, API keys, auto-compaction, auto-retry, tool execution, extensions, skills, prompt templates. The server spawns pi --mode rpc subprocesses, pipes JSONL events to WebSocket clients, and translates WebSocket requests into Pi RPC commands. That's it.

Agent-First Architecture

The system that builds the thing should shape the thing.

This codebase is maintained by AI coding agents, not humans with IDEs. Every structural decision optimizes for how agents work: tool calls to read files, exact-text edits to change them, and context windows to reason about them.

Deep Modules Over Small Files

Humans navigate with Cmd+P and jump-to-definition — file granularity is free. Agents navigate with tool calls — every file read costs time, every cross-file edit is a failure point. So we use deep modules: fewer files, richer interfaces, self-contained units.

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.
