sage: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

sage CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from PsYcGoD/sage. It costs 959 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Project instructions requiring coding and repository work to run shell commands through SAGE, a command wrapper. They also describe the project's managed SAGE integration.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when running searches, tests, scripts, package installs, or other shell commands for the project. Commands must be passed through the specified SAGE wrapper.
Why use it?
Using the wrapper records command history, reduces noisy output, and captures command-related metrics. The instructions also prevent normal repository tasks from bypassing the project's required workflow.

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

This is PsYcGoD/sage's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on sage 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 sage 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

sage 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 2mo 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.

SAGE MANAGED BLOCK START

SAGE Integration - MANDATORY

When a user asks for any coding, repo, file, debugging, documentation, or project task, start through SAGE automatically. The user should not need to type sage.

First actions for normal repo work:

  • Route every terminal command through a SAGE wrapper
  • Use native file/search/edit tools normally unless the user has manually installed and enabled the optional SAGE MCP server.

Route every shell command through SAGE. Do not run bare terminal commands.

Allowed wrappers:

  • PyPI/pip install: sage run -- <command>
  • npm/npx install: npx -y psycgod-sage run -- <command>

Rules:

  • Python: sage run -- python script.py or npx -y psycgod-sage run -- python script.py
  • Packages: sage run -- npm install or npx -y psycgod-sage run -- npm install
  • Tests: sage run -- pytest or npx -y psycgod-sage run -- pytest
  • If the wrapper fails before the target command starts, stop and report the wrapper failure.

Why:

  • Tracks local command history for the user
  • Compresses noisy output before it reaches AI context
  • Captures safe proof metrics for token savings and ML prediction
  • Keeps raw commands and output local unless the user enables higher telemetry

Examples:

  • Wrong: python test.py
  • Correct: sage run -- python test.py
  • Correct with npm/npx: npx -y psycgod-sage run -- python test.py
  • Wrong: git status
  • Correct: sage run -- git status

Optional MCP:

  • SAGE MCP is not auto-enabled because MCP stdio sessions can disconnect in long-running AI-agent sessions.
  • If SAGE MCP tools are manually installed and visible, you may use them.
  • If SAGE MCP tools are unavailable or disconnected, keep working with native file/search/edit tools and continue wrapping terminal commands through SAGE.

Example user request:

  • User: "Please help me with my general book in this folder"
  • Correct agent start: inspect/read/edit files with available native tools, then use sage run -- <command> only when a terminal command is needed.
  • Wrong agent start: bare python, git, npm, ls, or other terminal commands without SAGE.

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.
