sequant: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

sequant CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from sequant-io/sequant. It costs 881 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Project instructions for Sequant covering commits, hooks, skills, and testing. They tell Claude Code how to work within that repository’s rules.

In plain words
What is it for?
They are for guiding agents contributing to the Sequant codebase and following its testing and commit process.
Why use it?
They help prevent invalid commits, unsafe force pushes, misrouted skills, and tests that have not properly checked the claims they protect.

Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths.

This is sequant-io/sequant's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on sequant 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 sequant configures →

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

sequant 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 21d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 26 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Sequant

Commit Rules

  • Do NOT add Co-Authored-By lines to any commits in this repository.

Branch protection

  • main rejects direct pushes (ruleset CC, #1109: required test + canary, strict up-to-date — GH013; the payload in scripts/ruleset-main.sh swaps strict for a merge queue, which applies once #1368 lands — the live ruleset is unchanged until then). Every commit, docs included, lands through a PR; /release Step 6 does the same (#1131).

Hooks

Skills

  • When invoking a sequant skill via Skill(skill: "<name>", ...) from inside another sequant skill, qualify names that collide with Anthropic top-level skills as Skill(skill: "sequant:<name>", ...). Bare colliding names silently misroute to Anthropic's version. Enforced in CI by npm run lint:skill-calls (scripts/lint-skill-calls.ts). See #562 / #568.

Testing

  • Gate tests ship with a recorded mutation result. A test whose job is to gate a claim — a fixture exists, a skill section is present, a flag is wired — must be mutation-verified before it counts as coverage: delete the thing it asserts, confirm exactly that test fails, restore, and record the result using the Mutation-verified: AC-N — <mutation>; <test> failed; restored. marker format (machine-anchored as <!-- SEQUANT_MUTATION: {"ac":"AC-N","mutation":"...","failedTest":"<test file path> > <describe> > <case>"} -->) in the PR body — /qa §6i parses and enforces this record for gate-test ACs, and it resolves only the path segment before the first >: a describe-block name or bare test title there classifies test_not_in_diff and floors the verdict at AC_NOT_MET. Scope file-reading assertions to the delimited region they mean to check; matching the whole file lets a doc header or comment satisfy the assertion. See #830, where deleting the injection fixture's payload left the suite green, and #939, which promoted this record from prose to a parseable gate.

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.
