nanobot: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

nanobot CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from obot-platform/nanobot. It costs 1,662 tokens per session, scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

Repository guidance for Nanobot, a Go program that connects AI language models to tools through the Model Context Protocol (MCP).

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when developing Nanobot, especially when changing its backend or building the nanobot program.
Why use it?
It gives a coding agent the project context and the commands needed to build, run, format, and test the code.

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

This is obot-platform/nanobot's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on nanobot 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 nanobot configures →

About the project

Nanobot is a standalone MCP host: a service that connects MCP servers, a language model, and context to provide an agent interface such as a chatbot. It is for building deployable MCP- and MCP-UI-based agents, including dedicated assistants for games, shopping, and other services. Catalogue entries provide example agents and extensions.

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

nanobot 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 7d 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.

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

Project Overview

Nanobot is a standalone MCP (Model Context Protocol) host that enables building agents with MCP and MCP-UI. Unlike built-in MCP hosts in applications like VSCode, Claude, or ChatGPT, Nanobot is designed to be an open-source, deployable solution that combines MCP servers with LLMs to create agent experiences through external interfaces such as Obot. The project is written in Go.

Technology Stack:

  • Go 1.26.0 with GORM (SQLite, MySQL, PostgreSQL) and goja (JavaScript runtime for hooks)

Build and Development Commands

Backend (Go)

# Build the nanobot binary
make

# Run nanobot with a configuration file
./bin/nanobot run ./nanobot.yaml

# Run Go tests
go test ./...

# Run a specific test
go test ./pkg/agents -run TestName

# Format Go code
gofmt -w .

Architecture Overview

Backend Architecture

Core Components:

  • Runtime (pkg/runtime/) - Main orchestration layer that initializes the system. Creates and wires together the LLM client, tool service, agents, and sampling components. Manages the overall execution environment.

  • Agents (pkg/agents/) - Agent execution engine that handles tool mapping, request population, and agent interactions. Responsible for running agents backed by LLMs with access to tools.

  • Tools Service (pkg/tools/) - Central registry for tools and agents. Handles tool discovery, mapping, and execution delegation. Manages MCP server connections.

  • MCP Layer (pkg/mcp/) - MCP protocol implementation including sessions, clients, servers, and wire protocols. Handles both stdio and HTTP transports. Key types:

    • Session - Manages MCP session lifecycle and message routing
    • Client - MCP client implementation for connecting to servers
    • Wire - Protocol transport abstraction (stdio/HTTP)

  • LLM Integration (pkg/llm/) - Abstraction over different LLM providers (OpenAI, Anthropic). Routes requests to appropriate providers based on model names. Handles both completion and response APIs.

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.
