What is deepthonk CLAUDE.md?

Repository instructions for DeepThonk, a TypeScript command-line tool and MCP server for provider-neutral reasoning workflows. They document its pnpm workspace setup, build commands, tests, and development toolchain.

Installing dependencies, building workspace packages, running Vitest tests, and working with the project's TypeScript CLI and MCP server. A monorepo or workspace is one repository containing multiple related packages.

They tell a coding agent which package manager, Node versions, commands, and source paths the project expects.

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	$0.03509	$0.03509
Opus 5.5	$0.01404	$0.01404
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00702	$0.00702

Security

Grade C, and why

deepthonk CLAUDE.md scanned grade C 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 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.

Recursive force deletehighDestructive command

rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

- **Anything `test/` imports must be declared in the root `package.json`.** `test/` lives at the workspace root, so a package that only reaches it transitively resolves fine locally and then fails CI with `ERR_MODULE_NOT

CLAUDE.md

This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.

Project

DeepThonk implements OpenDeepThink as a provider-neutral TypeScript CLI + MCP server. A single shared engine in packages/core drives a population-based reasoning loop: generate → pairwise judge → Bradley-Terry rank → critique-guided mutation with elite preservation → final dense ranking. See AGENTS.md for the build contract and docs/algorithm.md for the loop details.

Toolchain

Uses pnpm workspaces (not bun) — pinned to [email protected] via the root packageManager field (pnpm 11 requires Node ≥ 22.13 and is needed for OIDC trusted publishing). Node ESM ("type": "module"). TypeScript 7 with project references; tests use Vitest 4 with path aliases that resolve @deepthonk/* to packages/*/src so tests run against source, not built dist/. pnpm-workspace.yaml sets allowBuilds: { esbuild: true } (pnpm 11 errors on unapproved build scripts). CI runs Node 22 and 24; @types/node stays on ^22 to match the floor.

Commands

pnpm install
pnpm run build              # tsc per workspace package
pnpm test                   # vitest run (all packages)
pnpm run lint               # typecheck only — no separate linter
pnpm run typecheck          # same as lint

# Single test file or test
pnpm exec vitest run test/core/runner.test.ts
pnpm exec vitest run -t "name pattern"

# Per-package build/typecheck
pnpm --filter @deepthonk/core run build
pnpm --filter deepthonk run typecheck

# CLI (from clone, --silent keeps stdout JSON-parseable)
pnpm --silent --filter deepthonk deepthonk plan --profile paper
pnpm --silent --filter deepthonk deepthonk run \
  --provider fake --profile quick \
  --task examples/tasks/toy-math.txt --out runs/test-quick
pnpm --silent --filter deepthonk deepthonk inspect runs/test-quick

# Dev CLI without building
pnpm --filter deepthonk run deepthonk -- plan --profile quick

The CLI also exposes dt as a short alias once installed. Built bin is packages/cli/dist/index.js.

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.
