Clew: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

Clew CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from miuuyy/Clew. It costs 678 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Repository instructions for Clew, a local-first learning workspace built around a graph of knowledge and an AI agent. They tell Claude Code what to read first and which design boundaries to preserve.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when modifying Clew’s graph workspace, agent behavior, snapshots, quizzes, imports, exports, or user interface.
Why use it?
They give the coding agent project context and guardrails, reducing the risk of changes that silently apply AI suggestions, break reversibility, or move the product away from its graph-centered design.

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

Clew 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.

Read first

Before making changes, read:

Product overview

Clew is a graph-first learning workspace with an AI agent layer.

If Obsidian is where you collect notes, Clew is where you operate on a learning graph.

The public main branch is the local developer edition. It keeps:

  • graph workspace
  • provider seam
  • proposals
  • snapshots and rollback
  • quizzes and closure logic
  • import/export

It does not try to mirror every hosted product surface.

Core boundaries

Never weaken these:

  1. The graph is the center of truth.
  2. AI suggests changes instead of silently applying them.
  3. Accepted graph changes stay reversible through snapshots.
  4. The UI stays graph-first instead of dashboard-first.
  5. The public local edition stays honest about being local-first.

Engineering rules

  • Prefer explicit contracts over heuristics.
  • Prefer fail-closed over hidden fallback.
  • Do not add semantic keyword routers for agent behavior.
  • Keep model behavior honest through role, context, and schema.
  • Do not add dead surfaces “just in case”.

Frontend quick map

  • frontend/src/App.tsx: app shell and state wiring
  • frontend/src/components/WorkspaceShell.tsx: sidebar and workspace chrome
  • frontend/src/components/GraphCanvas.tsx: graph rendering and interaction
  • frontend/src/components/SettingsModal.tsx: provider, memory, debug, and UX controls
  • frontend/src/lib/: API, graph helpers, copy, contracts, debug logging
  • frontend/src/styles/system.css: design tokens (--ui-*, both themes) and shared controls (ui* classes)
  • frontend/src/styles/components/: component styles built only on those tokens; new UI goes here, not into the legacy theme files
  • frontend/src/components/ui/: shared Modal and SwitchRow

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.
