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

quickclaude 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.

What it actually says

CLAUDE.md

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

Project Overview

quickclaude is a CLI launcher for Claude Code. It scans ~/.claude/projects/ for project directories, presents an interactive selection menu, and spawns claude in the chosen directory.

Commands

  • Run: node bin/quickclaude.js or npm start
  • Install globally (for testing): npm install -g .
  • No build step or test suite — this is a single-file Node.js CLI tool

Architecture

The entire tool lives in bin/quickclaude.js (ESM, #!/usr/bin/env node):

  • resolvePath(encoded) — Converts Claude's encoded project directory names (e.g., -Users-dongwoo-projects-my-app) back to real filesystem paths. Uses greedy longest-match against the filesystem, trying both - and space as segment joiners. Handles Windows drive letters (C--Users-...).
  • getProjects() — Reads ~/.claude/projects/, resolves each subdirectory name via resolvePath, filters out worktree dirs and non-existent paths.
  • main() — Uses @clack/prompts for the interactive select UI, then spawns claude with stdio: "inherit" in the selected directory.

Key Details

  • Single dependency: @clack/prompts for terminal UI
  • Published to npm as quickclaude (global install / npx)
  • Requires Node.js 18+ and Claude Code installed
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.
