local-rag-core CLAUDE.md

local-rag-core CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for coding agents from linkwut-create/local-rag-core. It costs 465 tokens per session, scanned A, a copy of local-rag-core AGENTS.md, MIT.

A project instruction file for local-rag-core, a codebase whose private knowledge base is accessed through an MCP server. It defines required checks before code changes and boundaries for how the project may be modified.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it before changing code to check project health, list knowledge packs, search and retrieve relevant decisions, identify protected areas, and follow the rule that writes go through the CLI or HTTP API.
Why use it?
It helps contributors use the project’s current goals and decisions, while avoiding direct edits to protected knowledge-base data or changes that would break its command and server workflow.

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

local-rag-core 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 4d 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.

Origin

This is a copy

98% identical to local-rag-core AGENTS.md — 2 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

What it actually says

CLAUDE.md — local-rag-core

MCP Integration

This project's knowledge base is served by its own MCP server. Before modifying any code, query the knowledge base:

kb.health       — check system status and backend health
kb.list_packs   — see available knowledge packs
kb.search       — search across private_kb and packs
kb.get_chunk    — retrieve full chunk content

Required Pre-Modification Workflow

Before proposing or implementing any code change:

  1. Query project goals:

    kb.search "local-rag-core project purpose and design goals"
    
  2. Check current status:

    kb.health
    kb.list_packs
    
  3. Retrieve relevant decisions:

    kb.search "<your specific topic>"
    
  4. Identify no-modify zones:

    • Do NOT modify knowledge base data through MCP (read-only by design)
    • Do NOT modify storage/, data/packs/, data/private_kb/ directly
    • Do NOT bypass the pack lifecycle (use CLI for build/export/import)
    • Do NOT change the MCP tool schema without updating this file
  5. Summarize retrieved context before proposing changes.

Architecture Boundaries

  • MCP is read-only. All writes go through CLI (rag ...) or HTTP API (with X-Local-RAG-Token auth).
  • Three knowledge zones: private_kb (user's), packs (shareable), private_project (code repos with filters).
  • Backend status: Check rag health for mock vs real backends.
  • Model cache: HuggingFace default at E:\AI\huggingface\hub\. Override with LOCAL_RAG_MODEL_CACHE.

Key Commands

rag health                              # system health
rag pack list                           # registered packs
rag search "<query>" --mode hybrid      # hybrid search
rag chunk get <chunk_id>                # retrieve chunk
pytest && ruff check .                  # validate before commit

Project Status

See PROJECT_STATUS.md for current phase and capability boundaries.

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.
