openfang CLAUDE.md

openfang CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for coding agents from RightNow-AI/openfang. It costs 1,399 tokens per session, scanned D, original, Apache-2.0.

A project instruction guide for OpenFang, an open-source agent operating system written in Rust. It describes the project setup, build checks, and live integration testing requirements.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when changing OpenFang to run its build, test, lint, and live integration checks and to understand its API, configuration, and command-line setup.
Why use it?
It gives coding agents the project-specific rules needed to verify changes beyond merely compiling or passing unit tests.

About the project

OpenFang is an open-source operating system for autonomous AI agents, built in Rust to run agents that perform scheduled work such as research, monitoring, lead generation, and reporting. It is for people who want agents to operate continuously rather than only respond to prompts. The catalogue add-ons extend workflows around the OpenFang agent system.

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 D, and why

openfang CLAUDE.md scanned grade D with 3 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 6d 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.

Sends data to an external URLmediumData exfiltration

A POST to an outside endpoint may be telemetry or may be exfiltration; either way the mod talks to somewhere, and you should know where.

curl | sh runs whatever the server returns today, which is not necessarily what it returned when this was reviewed.

OpenFang — Agent Instructions

Project Overview

OpenFang is an open-source Agent Operating System written in Rust (14 crates).

  • Config: ~/.openfang/config.toml
  • Default API: http://127.0.0.1:4200
  • CLI binary: target/release/openfang.exe (or target/debug/openfang.exe)

Build & Verify Workflow

After every feature implementation, run ALL THREE checks:

cargo build --workspace --lib          # Must compile (use --lib if exe is locked)
cargo test --workspace                 # All tests must pass (currently 1744+)
cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -- -D warnings  # Zero warnings

MANDATORY: Live Integration Testing

After implementing any new endpoint, feature, or wiring change, you MUST run live integration tests. Unit tests alone are not enough — they can pass while the feature is actually dead code. Live tests catch:

  • Missing route registrations in server.rs
  • Config fields not being deserialized from TOML
  • Type mismatches between kernel and API layers
  • Endpoints that compile but return wrong/empty data

How to Run Live Integration Tests

Step 1: Stop any running daemon
tasklist | grep -i openfang
taskkill //PID <pid> //F
# Wait 2-3 seconds for port to release
sleep 3
Step 2: Build fresh release binary
cargo build --release -p openfang-cli
Step 3: Start daemon with required API keys
GROQ_API_KEY=<key> target/release/openfang.exe start &
sleep 6  # Wait for full boot
curl -s http://127.0.0.1:4200/api/health  # Verify it's up

The daemon command is start (not daemon).

Step 4: Test every new endpoint
# GET endpoints — verify they return real data, not empty/null
curl -s http://127.0.0.1:4200/api/<new-endpoint>

# POST/PUT endpoints — send real payloads
curl -s -X POST http://127.0.0.1:4200/api/<endpoint> \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"field": "value"}'

# Verify write endpoints persist — read back after writing
curl -s -X PUT http://127.0.0.1:4200/api/<endpoint> -d '...'
curl -s http://127.0.0.1:4200/api/<endpoint>  # Should reflect the update

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.

openfang CLAUDE.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository RightNow-AI/openfang (18,166 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 1,399 tokens to every session, about $0.0070 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it D with 3 findings (sends data to an external url, downloads and executes remote code, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
