omen: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

omen CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from panbanda/omen. It costs 2,805 tokens per session, scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

Project instructions for Omen, a Rust command-line tool that analyzes code in 13 programming languages for issues such as complexity, unused code, duplication, and technical debt.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when changing Omen’s analyzers or CLI, or when running its formatting, linting, testing, coverage, and release-build checks.
Why use it?
They provide the commands and project structure needed to format, lint, test, measure coverage, and build the analyzer correctly.

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

This is panbanda/omen's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on omen 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 omen configures →

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

omen 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.

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.
