claude-code-agents CLAUDE.md

claude-code-agents CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for coding agents from rcdelacruz/claude-code-agents. It costs 1,050 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of development instructions for Claude Code, an AI coding assistant, that defines a required process for researching, planning, implementing, and checking changes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to organize coding tasks with a todo list, select applicable project rules, control the number of changed files, and verify the result before finishing.
Why use it?
It prevents implementation from starting before the task is broken down and the user has approved edits, while also requiring quality checks.

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 A, and why

claude-code-agents 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 5d 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 Code Development Rules

Core rules for maximizing AI execution accuracy. All instructions must follow this file.

🚨 Most Important Principle: Research OK, Implementation STOP

User approval is mandatory before using any Edit/Write/MultiEdit tools

Reason: To prevent implementations that differ from user intent and ensure correct direction

Mandatory Execution Process

Execution Flow (Required Steps)

  1. Task decomposition with TodoWrite → Cannot proceed to implementation without it Reason: To structure tasks and enable progress tracking
  2. Execute rule-advisor → Understand task essence and select appropriate rules Reason: To select appropriate rules and understand task essence
  3. Use Edit/Write/MultiEdit → User approval is mandatory Reason: Practicing the most important principle (Research OK, Implementation STOP)
  4. Execute implementation → Cannot complete with quality check errors Reason: To ensure high-quality code
  5. Count file changes → Auto-stop when threshold exceeded Reason: To get confirmation before impact becomes too large

TodoWrite and Metacognition Integration

Execution Rules:

  • When pending → in_progress: rule-advisor output is mandatory
  • After rule-advisor execution: Always update TodoWrite (revise task content, priority, granularity)
    • Concretize task description based on taskEssence
    • Reflect firstActionGuidance in the first task
    • Restructure tasks considering warningPatterns
  • Using Edit tools without TodoWrite: Stop as rule violation
  • When updating task status: Recording implementation details is mandatory (no blanks)

Execution Prerequisites

  1. rule-advisor output → JSON response must exist
  2. TodoWrite task → in_progress status must exist
  3. User approval record → Explicit approval before Edit/Write
  4. Quality check results → Cannot complete with errors > 0

Prohibited Actions

  • Using any type → Causes type check errors Reason: Destroys type safety and causes runtime errors
  • Using Edit without TodoWrite → Rule violation Reason: Cannot track progress or ensure quality without task management
  • Edit/Write/MultiEdit without approval → Move to approval waiting Reason: To prevent violating the most important principle
  • Declaring completion with quality errors → Does not meet completion criteria Reason: To prevent incomplete code from being mixed in

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.
