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 B, and why

claude-ide-bridge CLAUDE.md scanned grade B with 2 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 8d 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.

Reads agent configuration directoriesmediumAgent snooping

.claude/, .codex/, .gemini/ hold keys, settings and other credentials a mod has no legitimate need for.

Example `~/.claude/settings.json` block (Claude Code requires `matcher` + `hooks` arrays):

Makes network callslowCapability

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

- **VPS flags**: `--bind 0.0.0.0` exposes to all interfaces. `--vps` expands command allowlist (adds curl, systemctl, docker, etc.). `--fixed-token <uuid>` prevents token rotation on restart.

Claude IDE Bridge — Project Instructions

Documentation

Comply with all docs in /documents/. Consult before changes:

Cowork (computer-use) sessions: MCP bridge tools NOT available inside Cowork. Run /mcp__bridge__cowork in regular Desktop chat first to capture IDE context, then switch to Cowork. Cowork runs in isolated git worktree — output won't appear in git status on main until merged. (see docs/cowork.md)

CLI Subcommands

  • init [--workspace <path>] — One-command setup: install extension + write CLAUDE.md + print next steps
  • start-all — Launch tmux session with bridge + extension watcher panes
  • install-extension — Install companion VS Code extension
  • gen-claude-md — Generate starter CLAUDE.md for current workspace
  • print-token [--port N] — Print auth token from active lock file
  • gen-plugin-stub <dir> --name <org/name> --prefix <prefix> — Scaffold new plugin
  • quick-task <preset> — Launch a context-aware Claude task from a preset (fixErrors, refactorFile, addTests, explainCode, optimizePerf, runTests, resumeLastCancelled). Same dispatch path as the sidebar. Requires --claude-driver subprocess.
  • start-task "<description>" — Enqueue a free-form Claude task; Claude gathers its own workspace context.
  • continue-handoff — Resume from the stored handoff note (skips auto-snapshots).
  • --watch — Auto-restart supervisor with exponential backoff (2s → 30s). Safe for production.

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.
