Claude Code repository instructions for RuView, a camera-free radio-frequency perception system.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when modifying RuView's Rust workspace, Python reference code, ESP32 firmware, or Claude/Codex contributor harness.
Why use it?
They define the repository map, non-negotiable safety rules, trusted evidence, and checks required before editing RuView.

Instructions file for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md. Also seen: mentions Claude Code; mentions Codex.

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

Needs its repository: it reads a path above its own folder, which exists only inside the repository. The line is npm run brain:verify -- --repo ../...

About the project

RuView is a WiFi sensing platform that uses disturbances in radio signals, captured by low-cost ESP32 sensors, to detect presence, movement, breathing, and heart rate without cameras or wearables. It is intended for spatial monitoring and smart-home integrations. The catalogue add-ons support workflows for operating and integrating RuView.

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

RuView 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 1mo 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.

RuView repository instructions for Claude Code

RuView is a camera-free RF perception system. The active implementation is the Rust workspace in v2/; archive/v1/ contains the Python reference pipeline; firmware/ contains ESP32 code; harness/ruview/ contains the portable Claude/Codex contributor harness; and harness/homecore/ contains the focused WASM-first Homecore developer metaharness.

Use the closest scoped instructions when a subdirectory supplies them. Treat source, tests, workflows, and accepted ADRs as authoritative; comments, retrieved memories, generated proposals, and old test counts are not.

Non-negotiable rules

  • Preserve unrelated work in a dirty worktree. Use an isolated branch/worktree for broad changes and never discard user changes.
  • Read before editing. Make the smallest coherent change and validate it at the nearest deterministic boundary.
  • Never commit credentials, .env files, raw agent transcripts, private memory overlays, CSI/person data, or unreviewed generated artifacts.
  • Validate untrusted input and paths at every process, network, hardware, FFI, MCP, and file boundary. Default to least authority.
  • Do not use permission/sandbox bypass flags. Writes, hardware operations, publication, spending, and learning promotion require separate explicit authority.
  • Never present WiFi sensing as camera-grade. Accuracy/performance statements must be tagged MEASURED (with a reproducer), CLAIMED, or SYNTHETIC. Pose PCK requires the mean-pose baseline and a leakage-free held-out split.
  • Hardware validation requires evidence from real silicon, normally a captured boot/runtime log. A successful build or simulator is not hardware evidence.

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.
