What is taskdog CLAUDE.md?

A CLAUDE.md project instruction file for Taskdog, a task-management system with command-line, terminal-interface, and web API parts. It explains the project’s five-package monorepo—a single repository containing several related packages—and how those packages communicate.

Use it to navigate the core task logic, REST server, HTTP client, command-line and terminal interfaces, and MCP server. It also explains the Clean Architecture layout, database responsibilities, package dependencies, and API-based communication flow.

It helps an AI assistant understand where business logic, the API, the client, and user interfaces belong. This reduces accidental dependency violations and keeps all interfaces using the project’s intended communication path.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.02483	$0.02483

Security

Grade A, and why

taskdog 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.

Project Overview

Taskdog is a Python task management system with a CLI/TUI and a REST API server. It manages tasks with time tracking, dependencies, schedule optimization, and rich terminal output. The codebase follows Clean Architecture and is organized as a UV workspace monorepo.

Monorepo Structure

Five packages under packages/:

taskdog-core: Pure business logic. Domain entities, use cases, controllers, validators, optimization strategies, SQLite + SQLAlchemy persistence with Alembic migrations. No UI/API dependencies.
taskdog-server: FastAPI REST API (depends on core). Routers, Pydantic request/response models, OpenAPI docs at /docs, health check, app-level exception handlers.
taskdog-client: HTTP client (TaskdogClient) for the server (depends on core). Used by CLI/TUI/MCP.
taskdog-ui: CLI (Click + Rich) and TUI (Textual), depends on core + client.
taskdog-mcp: MCP server for Claude Desktop (depends on client).

Communication: CLI/TUI/MCP reach all data through the HTTP API client. Only the server uses repositories and controllers directly.

Data Storage & Configuration

Tasks: SQLite at $XDG_DATA_HOME/taskdog/tasks.db (fallback ~/.local/share/taskdog/tasks.db).
Config: optional TOML at $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/taskdog/ (fallback ~/.config/taskdog/):
- core.toml — [time], [region], [storage] (default_start/end_time, country, database_url, backend)
- server.toml — [auth] (enabled, api_keys)
- cli.toml — [api], [ui], [notes], [keybindings] (base_url, api_key, theme)
- mcp.toml — [api] (base_url, api_key)
Priority: Environment vars > CLI args > Config file > Defaults.
Server bind address via taskdog-server --host --port. CLI/TUI/MCP connection via base_url in cli.toml / mcp.toml, TASKDOG_API_BASE_URL, or taskdog --base-url (clients have no host/port setting). Access config via ctx.obj.config (CLI) or context.config (TUI).

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.
