ledger CLAUDE.md

ledger CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for coding agents from peterjthomson/ledger. It costs 4,324 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A project reference document for Ledger, a macOS desktop app that manages Git repositories, branches, pull requests, and workspaces used by several coding agents. It describes the project, its technology, architecture, files, and main interfaces.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when developing, reviewing, or debugging the Ledger application.
Why use it?
It gives an agent the project-specific context needed to understand how Ledger is organised and how its parts communicate.

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

ledger 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 4d 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.

CLAUDE.md - Ledger Project Reference

Project Overview

Ledger is a macOS Electron desktop application for managing Git repositories with first-class support for AI agent worktrees, Pull Requests, and Branches. It provides real-time visibility into multiple parallel coding agents (Cursor, Claude, Conductor, Gemini, Junie) working in Git worktrees.

Core Value Proposition: Traditional Git interfaces don't surface multi-worktree activity from AI agents. Ledger solves this by detecting agent workspaces, showing live diff stats, and providing unified branch/PR/worktree management.

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.
