groundcrew CLAUDE.md

groundcrew CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from sandeep-alluru/groundcrew. It costs 224 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A Claude Code instruction file for groundcrew, describing a planned macOS tool that observes application state and file changes for computer-use agents.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when planning or building the macOS state-snapshot daemon, action receipts, structured diffs, command-line wrapper, or documentation.
Why use it?
It preserves the project's research context, platform choice, planned architecture, and minimum viable product so implementation follows the intended direction.

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 A, and why

groundcrew 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.

What it actually says

groundcrew — Session Anchor

Research spec: ../tech-research/07-Computer-and-Browser-Use/groundcrew-the-deterministic-state-oracle-for-computer/README.md
One-liner: Ground-truth state oracle for computer-use agents via OS-layer (a11y tree + FS + network)
Phase: backlog
Stack: Python, pyobjc-framework-Accessibility (macOS), watchdog

Key decisions

  • macOS-only for v0.1 (AXUIElement/AXObserver is mature); Linux/Windows deferred

Next step

Read the research spec, then implement the macOS AXUIElement state snapshot daemon.

MVP definition

  • pip install groundcrew works
  • Python daemon reading macOS AXUIElement + watchdog/FSEvents → structured JSON snapshots
  • CLI: groundcrew capture <script> wraps any Python script and emits before/after "action receipt"
  • Structured JSON diff showing: accessibility tree delta + filesystem change
  • README with example action receipt output
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.
