What is interdoc CLAUDE.md?

Project instructions for interdoc, a tool that recursively generates AGENTS.md documentation for a repository using parallel agents and then combines their work. They also point to the project's main documentation and publishing guidance.

Use them to locate AGENTS.md, README.md, testing documentation, and publishing procedures, and to follow the repository's preferred tools and workflow for documentation changes.

They explain which files contain the real project rules and how Claude-specific behavior differs from general repository guidance. This reduces the chance of following outdated or misplaced instructions.

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	$0.00199	$0.00199
Opus 5.5	$0.00080	$0.00080
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00040	$0.00040
Haiku 4.5	$0.00020	$0.00020

Security

Grade A, and why

interdoc 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.

CLAUDE.md · 23 lines

What it actually says

CLAUDE.md

Documentation is in AGENTS.md - This file contains Claude-specific settings only. For project documentation, architecture, and conventions, see AGENTS.md.

Overview

Recursive AGENTS.md generator. Generates documentation using parallel subagents, then consolidates into coherent project documentation.

Claude-Specific Settings

When working on this repo, Claude should:

Use the Read tool instead of cat for file operations
Prefer Edit tool over sed/awk for file modifications
After behavioral changes, publish via scripts/bump-version.sh (see root agents/plugin-publishing.md)

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.
