effect-json CLAUDE.md

effect-json CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for coding agents from PaulJPhilp/effect-json. It costs 2,595 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A development guide for effect-json, a TypeScript library that reads and writes JSON, JSON with comments, and values such as dates, sets, maps, and big integers while checking their shape.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when adding or fixing serialization, parsing, schema validation, error types, or serialization backends in effect-json.
Why use it?
It documents the library's supported formats, error handling, and type-safety rules so changes remain consistent with its design.

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

effect-json 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 3d 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.

effect-json Development Guide

effect-json is a published npm library providing type-safe, schema-driven JSON serialization for TypeScript and Effect.

📦 Published: https://www.npmjs.com/package/effect-json 🐙 Repository: https://github.com/PaulJPhilp/effect-json 📊 Version: 0.1.0 (production)

Project Overview

effect-json provides three JSON serialization backends unified under a single Effect-native API:

  • JSON: Standard JSON.parse/stringify with precise error reporting
  • JSONC: JSON with Comments support (strips single-line and multi-line comments)
  • SuperJSON: Type-preserving serialization (Date, Set, Map, BigInt, etc.)

All operations return Effect types for composability with the Effect ecosystem.

Architecture

Core Principles

  1. Effect-First Design: All APIs return Effect<Success, Error> types
  2. Tagged Errors: Use ParseError, ValidationError, StringifyError for precise error handling
  3. Schema Validation: Effect.Schema for all parsing/stringification
  4. Pluggable Backends: Backend interface allows extensibility
  5. Type Safety: TypeScript strict mode, full type inference

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.
