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

claude-code-setup 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 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.

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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 71 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

CLAUDE.md — Meta Instructions

This repository's primary artifact is skill/SKILL.md — a /setup skill that audits Claude Code configuration and suggests project-tailored improvements. The core/ directory serves as reference material for maintaining the skill's accuracy. BOOTSTRAP.md explains the /bootstrap skill for greenfield project setup.

Structure

  • core/ — Language-agnostic reference guides (one topic per file)
  • projects/ — Language-specific extensions of core guides (Python, TypeScript, Go, Rust)
  • templates/ — Copy-paste ready config templates (agents/, skills/, rules/)
  • templates/bootstrap/ — Extracted templates used by /bootstrap skill
  • prompts/ — Prompt patterns and examples
  • skill/SKILL.md — The /setup skill (self-contained)
  • .claude/skills/bootstrap/ — The /bootstrap skill for new projects
  • .claude/skills/evolve/ — The /evolve skill for auto-maintenance
  • .claude/rules/ — Context-specific rules (auto-loaded by file path)

Architecture

This is a documentation and skills repository — no application code, no build step, no tests. The primary artifacts are Markdown files that serve as Claude Code configuration guides and skills.

Key Files

  • skill/SKILL.md — The /setup skill (also mirrored at .claude/skills/setup/SKILL.md)
  • .claude/skills/bootstrap/SKILL.md — The /bootstrap skill
  • .claude/skills/evolve/SKILL.md — The /evolve skill
  • skill/OUTPUT-FORMAT.md — Output template for /setup reports

Data Flow

  • /setup audits → emits setup-report block → /bootstrap consumes it
  • /evolve auto-maintains config after tasks (via Stop hook)
  • core/ guides are reference material for skill accuracy, not user-facing docs

Commands

No build, test, or lint commands — this is a pure Markdown repo. Useful commands:

# Validate docs
/verify-docs

# Audit this project's Claude Code config
/setup

# Apply suggested config
/bootstrap

# Auto-maintain Claude Code config after tasks
/evolve

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.
