interlinked-cli CLAUDE.md

Repository instructions for Interlinked, a system that checks code written by agents for quality and security. They explain the project's purpose, workflow, and the consequences of its checks.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them before modifying Interlinked's quality gates, security checks, thresholds, scope rules, or agent-tool-call handling.
Why use it?
They prevent contributors from changing checks, limits, or other safeguards without understanding what those changes affect.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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 C, and why

interlinked-cli CLAUDE.md scanned grade C with 2 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 2d 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.

rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

CLAUDE.md

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

What this is for (read before changing any check, gate, or threshold)

Interlinked is a portable, per-tool-call quality and security standard for agent-written code. A local daemon sits in front of an agent's tool calls and judges each one — ideally before it reaches disk. Four goals, in priority order:

  1. Judge agent-written code at the moment it is written, in ANY codebase. This repo is one instance, and an unrepresentative one: single language, agent-hardened, no human legacy. Portability is the product; this tree is the test fixture.
  2. Ratchet the quality and security of whatever codebase it runs in. Default scope is the DIFF — the edited region of this tool call, not the file. Opt-in wider scopes: whole-file ("fix the file you touched") and whole-codebase ("bring this repo up to standard": tests, types, coverage, low complexity).
  3. Catch problems at the earliest point the evidence exists. PreToolUse when the proposed content is enough; PostToolUse when the file on disk or a compiler is required; trajectory when the pattern spans several calls; Stop when the only observable is "they finished without doing X". A check should declare the earliest phase its evidence supports, and sit there.
  4. Double as a step-level training signal for other coding agents, especially small/local ones. An agent that clears the strictest per-tool-call gates is demonstrably good — closer to rewarding every step than rewarding the final diff.

The consequence that reverses the obvious reading

A check that never fires in this repo is not dead weight, and must not be retired or demoted for being quiet. It is the part of the standard this particular (strong) agent already clears. Point it at a 7B local model or at human-written legacy code and it earns its keep.

Fire rate measures the AGENT, not the check.

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.

interlinked-cli CLAUDE.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository QuentinCody/interlinked-cli (13 stars, last pushed 15d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 17,883 tokens to every session, about $0.0894 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it C with 2 findings (recursive force delete, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
