What is openscientist CLAUDE.md?

Repository-specific instructions for developing OpenScientist, a web app where AI agents analyse scientific data and test research ideas. They describe its Python services, web interface, database, job system, and development setup.

Use them when developing OpenScientist, including its APIs, web app, database, job scheduling, agent tools, scientific workflows, and environment configuration.

They give the coding agent the project’s structure and setup requirements, reducing mistakes when changing a system with many connected components.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00005	$0.00005
Opus 5.5	$0.00002	$0.00002
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00001	$0.00001
Haiku 4.5	$0.00001	$0.00001

Security

Grade A, and why

openscientist 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 12d 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.

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.
