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

e-commerce-agents 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.

CLAUDE.md

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

What This Is

E-Commerce Agents is a multi-agent e-commerce platform built with Microsoft Agent Framework (MAF) Python SDK. 6 specialized agents collaborate via A2A protocol to handle product discovery, orders, pricing, reviews, inventory, and customer support. Includes a marketplace layer with agent catalog, access requests, and admin approval.

Working Artifacts Location

All working artifacts live in the repo-local .claude/ folder only:

  • .claude/plans/ — one consolidated plan (remaining-work.md). Finished plans are deleted rather than archived: git keeps them, and a directory of stale plans makes "what is left?" a research question every time it is asked
  • .claude/agents/ — the subagent definitions and the model-strategy README
  • .claude/settings.json — the session model (opusplan)

There is deliberately no .claude/memory/ or .claude/rules/: durable facts belong in this file or in AGENTS.md, and anything short-lived belongs in the one plan. Earlier revisions of this section described both directories; neither has ever existed.

Do not put these in the repo root (no top-level plans/ folder) or rely on global ~/.claude. Keeping them under the repo-local .claude/ means they are committed with the project and travel with it.

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.
