CLAUDE.md

spendveto CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from revanthrajeev/spendveto. It costs 7,255 tokens per session, scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

Project-specific instructions for SpendVeto, a system that decides whether AI agents may make payments before those payments settle.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when working on SpendVeto, especially its verification commands, payment controls, documentation, and related project integration.
Why use it?
They document the project's rules, commands, ports, known pitfalls, and checks for keeping public claims reproducible.

Instructions file for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md. Also seen: mentions CLAUDE.md; positional $N argument; mentions Claude Code.

This is revanthrajeev/spendveto's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on spendveto 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 spendveto configures →

Not installable: its command points at a path on the author’s own machine, so it runs nowhere else. The line is /Users/.../spendveto.

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

spendveto 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 3d 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 63 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

CLAUDE.md — working on SpendVeto

SpendVeto is the spend-governance layer for AI agents that pay for things — model tokens, x402/USDC, cards, fiat payouts. Rails move the money; SpendVeto decides whether the agent is allowed to move it — before anything settles. Since v0.29.0 it is also the neutral trust layer between agents and sellers: attestations, federated reputation, an open policy schema.

The one rule that governs everything

Every public claim must be an assertion in npm run verify. The count in README/site/PITCH must equal what a fresh clone produces — npm run verify 2>&1 | grep -c "^PASS" (currently 492), not what this machine produces. Three further assertions cover the real cross-project Basis integration and only run when ../prediction-copilot sits alongside this repo, which takes a maintainer checkout to 461. Publish 492: a reviewer who clones and counts must never find the site claiming more than they can reproduce. New feature → new assertion(s) → bump the count everywhere it appears (grep for the old number across README.md PITCH.md site/*.html launch/*.md). Never ship a fake control: features that can't work locally yet are declared slots that refuse honestly (see rails/index.js roadmap rails), never stubs that pretend.

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.
