crawlforge-mcp: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

crawlforge-mcp CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from mysleekdesigns/crawlforge-mcp. It costs 1,970 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A project instruction file for Claude Code, an AI coding assistant. It sets expectations for planning, simplifying code, and making focused edits in a repository.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to guide Claude Code while developing the project, including setup, commands, and day-to-day code changes.
Why use it?
It helps prevent unnecessary changes and makes the assistant state assumptions or ask questions when the task is unclear.

Instructions file for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md. Also seen: mentions CLAUDE.md; mentions subagents; mentions Claude Code.

This is mysleekdesigns/crawlforge-mcp's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on crawlforge-mcp itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything crawlforge-mcp configures →

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

crawlforge-mcp 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 13d 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

Guidance for Claude Code when working in this repository. File-specific detail lives in path-scoped rules under .claude/rules/ (tool registration and billing, search tools, stealth engines, security guards); they load when matching files are read.

Working guidelines

These bias toward caution over speed; for trivial tasks, use judgment.

  1. Think before coding. Don't assume, and don't hide confusion.
    • State your assumptions. If uncertain, ask.
    • If several interpretations exist, present them rather than picking one silently.
    • If a simpler approach exists, say so, and push back when warranted.
  2. Simplicity first. Write the minimum code that solves the problem.
    • No features, abstractions, configurability or error handling beyond what was asked or what can actually happen.
    • If 200 lines could be 50, rewrite it.
  3. Surgical changes. Touch only what you must.
    • Don't "improve" adjacent code, comments or formatting, and don't refactor what isn't broken. Match the existing style.
    • Remove imports, variables and functions your change made unused. Mention pre-existing dead code; don't delete it unless asked.
    • Every changed line should trace to the request.
  4. Goal-driven execution. Turn the task into a check you can run, and loop until it passes: "fix the bug" → a test that reproduces it, then make it pass; "refactor X" → tests pass before and after. For multi-step work, state a brief plan with a verification step for each item.

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.
