What is omniscribe CLAUDE.md?

Repository instructions for Omniscribe, a desktop app that runs multiple AI coding-assistant sessions at once. The project uses Electron, NestJS, React, and a monorepo, which is one repository containing several related packages or apps.

Installing dependencies, running development and build commands, checking code with linting, formatting, tests, and type checks, and packaging the desktop app.

It gives coding agents the project’s required tools, commands, structure, and build order so they can work within the repository’s conventions.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked

Security

Grade A, and why

omniscribe CLAUDE.md scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 2mo 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.

Runs shell commandslowCapability

Expected in a hook, worth knowing in a rule or an instructions file.

Project Overview

Omniscribe is a desktop application for orchestrating multiple AI coding assistant sessions in parallel. It uses Electron with an embedded NestJS backend in the main process and a React frontend in the renderer.

Requirements

Node.js >= 22
pnpm 10.x

Commands

# Install dependencies
pnpm install

# Development (starts web + desktop concurrently)
pnpm dev

# Build all packages (shared must build first — all others depend on it)
pnpm build

# Build only shared package (required before desktop/web/mcp-server builds)
pnpm build:packages

# Lint / Format
pnpm lint
pnpm format          # write
pnpm format:check    # CI check (no write)

# Test / Type-check
pnpm test
pnpm typecheck

# Package desktop app for distribution
pnpm --filter @omniscribe/desktop package

# Platform-specific builds
pnpm package:win    # Windows
pnpm package:mac    # macOS

# Rebuild node-pty after electron update
pnpm --filter @omniscribe/desktop rebuild

Architecture

Monorepo Structure

apps/desktop/ - Electron main process with NestJS backend
apps/web/ - React frontend (served by Vite, loaded by Electron renderer)
apps/mcp-server/ - MCP server for Claude Code status reporting
packages/shared/ - Shared types and utilities

Backend (NestJS in Electron Main)

Located in apps/desktop/src/modules/:

TerminalModule - PTY management via node-pty, handles spawn/input/resize/kill (global module)
SessionModule - AI session lifecycle and state (Starting, Idle, Working, NeedsInput, Done, Error)
GitModule - Git operations (branches, worktrees, commits) via CLI execution with domain services
GithubModule - GitHub CLI operations (PRs, issues, repo info)
McpModule - MCP server discovery, config generation, status polling
WorkspaceModule - Project/tab management, persistence via electron-store
QuickActionModule - Quick action management and execution
UsageModule - Claude CLI usage data fetching
HealthModule - Periodic health checks and zombie session detection
SharedModule - CORS config, env-utils, throttler guard, NestJS logger adapter

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.
