10x-bench: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

10x-bench CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from przeprogramowani/10x-bench. It costs 2,013 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Project instructions for 10xBench, a benchmark that compares how AI models create complete websites from one prompt. It explains the project structure, development commands, result processing, and evaluation workflow.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to run the Astro development server, build the production site, turn result CSV files into results.json, and score model attempts.
Why use it?
It gives a coding agent the project-specific context needed to build the site, process benchmark results, and follow the repository's evaluation process.

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

10x-bench 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 27d 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.

This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.

Project Overview

10xBench is a comprehensive benchmark comparing how different large language models handle "vibe coding"—creating a fully functional website for Przeprogramowani.pl in a single attempt without iterative refinement.

Each of four models (Claude Opus 4.6, GPT-5.3-Codex, Kimi K2.5, GLM-4.7) receives the same prompt and must generate a complete website implementation. Results are systematically evaluated against defined criteria and presented in an interactive dashboard.

Quick Start Commands

Development & Building

# Process results CSV files and generate results.json
npm run process-results

# Start development server (Astro) with results processing
npm run dev

# Build production site
npm run build

# Development from website directory (for Astro only)
cd website && npm run dev
cd website && npm run build

Evaluation

# Run the evaluation skill to assess an implementation
/10x-score-attempts against <attempt-directory>

# Example:
/10x-score-attempts against claude opus attempt 1

Project Structure

Core Directories

  • ./scripts/ — Data processing utilities

    • process-results.ts — TypeScript script that parses CSV evaluation files from each attempt and generates results.json
  • ./website/ — Astro-based results dashboard

    • src/pages/index.astro — Main results overview page
    • src/pages/benchmark.astro — Benchmark prompt and criteria page
    • src/components/ResultCard.tsx — Summary cards showing attempt scores
    • src/components/ResultsTable.tsx — Interactive comparison table with sticky headers
    • src/components/ModelAveragesCard.tsx — Model family average summaries
    • src/data/results.json — Generated data file (created by process-results.ts)
  • ./eval-attempts/ — Model implementations (one-shot attempts)

    • claude-opus-attempt-{1,2,3}/ — Claude Opus 4.6 implementations
    • gpt-codex-attempt-{1,2,3}/ — GPT-5.3-Codex implementations
    • kimi-k2.5-attempt-{1,2,3}/ — Kimi K2.5 implementations
    • glm-4.7-attempt-{1,2,3}/ — GLM-4.7 implementations
    • Each contains eval-result.csv with criterion-by-criterion scores

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.
