minutes CLAUDE.md

minutes CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for coding agents from silverstein/minutes. It costs 6,720 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A project guide for Minutes, a privacy-focused memory tool that records or imports audio, transcribes it locally, identifies speakers, and saves searchable Markdown notes with decisions and action items.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when developing the recording, live-transcription, note-taking, folder-watching, search, or setup features.
Why use it?
It gives a coding agent the project's architecture, setup commands, models, and test instructions for its Rust, Tauri, and Node.js components.

Instructions file

Installs and runs on its own, but its text points at files inside the plugin that ships it — anything it tells you to read at a ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} path is only there once the plugin is installed.

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

minutes 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 4d 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.

CLAUDE.md — Minutes

Your AI remembers the conversations you authorize.

Project Overview

Minutes — open-source, privacy-first conversation memory layer for AI assistants. Captures meetings, voice memos, and brain dumps, transcribes locally with whisper.cpp, diarizes speakers, and outputs searchable markdown with structured action items and decisions. Built with Rust + Tauri v2 + Node.js (MCP).

Four input modes, one pipeline:

  • Live recording: minutes record / minutes stop — for meetings, calls, conversations
  • Live transcript: minutes live / minutes stop — real-time transcription with delta reads for AI coaching mid-meeting
  • Notetaking: minutes note "important point" — timestamped annotations during recording
  • Folder watcher: minutes watch — auto-processes voice memos from iPhone/iCloud

Quick Start

cd ~/Sites/minutes
cargo build                          # Build Rust workspace
cargo test -p minutes-core --no-default-features  # Fast tests (no whisper model)
cargo run --bin minutes -- setup --model tiny      # Download whisper model
cargo run --bin minutes -- setup --diarization     # Download speaker diarization models (~34MB)
cargo run --bin minutes -- record    # Start recording
cargo run --bin minutes -- stop      # Stop and process

Full Build (CLI + Tauri App)

./scripts/build.sh                   # Builds everything and installs CLI
./scripts/build.sh --install         # Same + copies .app to /Applications
./scripts/install-dev-app.sh         # Canonical signed dev app install to ~/Applications/Minutes Dev.app
# Or manually:
export CXXFLAGS="-I$(xcrun --show-sdk-path)/usr/include/c++/v1"
cargo build --release -p minutes-cli           # CLI binary
cargo tauri build --bundles app                # Tauri .app bundle
rm -f ~/.local/bin/minutes && cp target/release/minutes ~/.local/bin/minutes # Install CLI (rm first: in-place cp over a running binary invalidates its signature -> SIGKILL on every launch)
open target/release/bundle/macos/Minutes.app   # Launch app

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.
