What is aictl CLAUDE.md?

A project-specific instruction guide for Claude Code, covering how the aictl codebase is organised, built, run, and expected to behave.

Use it when working on aictl and you need guidance about its instructions, workspace layout, modules, build commands, or important behaviours.

It gives the coding agent the project knowledge it needs before making changes, including details that may not be obvious from the files.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.09920	$0.09920
Opus 5.5	$0.03968	$0.03968
Sonnet 5.5	$0.01984	$0.01984

Security

Grade B, and why

aictl CLAUDE.md scanned grade B with 1 finding 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.

Reads MCP configurationmediumAgent snooping

mcp.json carries server URLs and auth tokens; reading it lets a mod discover and abuse other integrations.

- `mcp.rs` (+ `mcp/{config,protocol,transport,stdio,http,sse}.rs`) — Model Context Protocol client. Servers declared in `~/.aictl/mcp.json` (override via `AICTL_MCP_CONFIG`) in a Claude Desktop-compatible shape. Stdio en

A licence we could not identify

The repository carries a LICENSE file, but it is custom or dual enough that GitHub cannot name it and neither can this catalogue. Unknown terms are not permission, so the body is not copied here. Read the licence at the source and decide for yourself.

Changes

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.
