What is hivekeep CLAUDE.md?

Project instructions for Hivekeep, a self-hosted platform where specialized AI agents share memory, tools, and an ongoing session. The instructions describe its documentation, technology choices, naming rules, and system behavior.

Use them when working on Hivekeep features such as its database, API, real-time server events, configuration, memory system, or project structure.

They give an agent the project context and the documents it must consult before making changes.

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	$0.04507	$0.04507
Opus 5.5	$0.01803	$0.01803
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00901	$0.00901
Haiku 4.5	$0.00451	$0.00451

Security

Grade A, and why

hivekeep 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 214 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Hivekeep

Self-hosted platform of specialized AI agents (Agents) for individuals and small groups. Each Agent has a persistent identity, expertise, memory, and tools. Agents share a single continuous session (no "new conversation"), collaborate with each other, spawn sub-Agents for tasks, and execute scheduled jobs.

Documentation map

Read these files before starting any phase. They are the source of truth.

File	Content
`schema.md`	Complete SQLite database schema (all tables, indexes, virtual tables)
`api.md`	REST API contracts (request/response for every route) + SSE events
`sse.md`	Real-time/SSE cheat sheet — emit↔handle rules, the 8 recurring sync-bug traps, optimistic reconciliation, review checklist. Read before touching SSE or shared state.
`config.md`	All configurable values with env vars and defaults
`structure.md`	Project file tree, naming conventions, imports, i18n, error format
`prompt-system.md`	How the Agent system prompt is assembled (blocks 1-12)
`compacting.md`	Compacting algorithm + memory extraction pipeline
`memory.md`	Memory v2 design — always-injected per-Agent profile document + episodic archive searched via `recall`; replaces per-message retrieval injection and the scoring heuristics
`queenie.md`	Conversational onboarding spec — the `Queenie` configurator Agent, vault-centralized secrets, secure-input tools, avatar-style customization (Phase 27)
`files.md`	Files section spec — workspace file browser/editor (tree + tabs + CodeMirror), workspace REST API + `workspace:changed` SSE, share-to-file-storage, chat integrations (`@` file palette, clickable paths)
`interactive-setup.md`	Interactive setup cards spec — generic, declarative in-chat OAuth sign-in + QR pairing (setup methods `secret`/`oauth`/`qr`), extending the `secret_prompts` card machinery without a DB migration
`external-api.md`	External API spec — machine-to-machine conversational access: declared external clients + API keys (bearer), `/api/v1/*` send (wait/poll) with `requestId` correlation, hybrid target (main timeline or full-power isolated thread). Reuses the queue, session-lane and turn-completion machinery.
`testing-instance.md`	Local test instance — a ready, LLM-capable seeded DB (`~/.local/share/hivekeep-testdata/`, Claude Max provider via host creds) for booting the real app to verify changes. Read it before running the app locally: this shell inherits PROD env (port 3000 + live DB) — `scripts/seed-test-db.ts` regenerates the seed.

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.
