android-minimalist-template: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

android-minimalist-template CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from smuzani/android-minimalist-template. It costs 730 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Project-specific instructions for an Android template built with Jetpack Compose, Android’s modern UI toolkit, plus networking, dependency injection, and reactive data streams.

In plain words
What is it for?
Adding Android screens and features, connecting APIs with Retrofit, exposing data through Flow and StateFlow, handling navigation arguments, and wiring dependencies with Hilt.
Why use it?
They keep screens, data loading, navigation, and shared UI infrastructure consistent, reducing architectural drift and common lifecycle or dependency mistakes.

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

android-minimalist-template 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 8d 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.

Claude Code Guidelines

Project Overview

Android minimalist template focused on networking, Compose, and Flow. The architecture emphasizes peripheral vision — keeping related code close together so a reader (human or AI) can see everything at once. Dense, related code is preferred over clean-code abstractions for their own sake.

Stack: Retrofit + Gson, Coil, Jetpack Compose + Material 3, StateFlow, Hilt, Parcelize.

Project-Specific Conventions

  • Hilt everywhere. Repositories and services are provided by Hilt modules — no hand-constructed singletons inside ViewModels. See randomuser/network/NetworkModule.kt as the template.
  • Flow pattern. Repositories expose cold Flow<T>; ViewModels expose hot StateFlow<T> via .stateIn(...); Composables use collectAsStateWithLifecycle(). No bare .collect {} inside ViewModels. See docs/flow-compose-patterns.md.
  • @Parcelize for nav args. Types that cross a navigation boundary are @Parcelize data class.
  • spine holds cross-cutting UI infrastructure. Currently: Nerve (scaffold ↔ screen bridge) and UiState<T> (shared async state type). Add to spine only when ≥ 2 features need it.
  • Nerve is a pragmatic hack, not an idiom. spine/Nerve.kt is a mutable shared-state holder bridging scaffold ↔ screens. Use it only when a single outer Scaffold wraps many screens. For new features, prefer moving Scaffold inside each screen or hoisting an AppBarState the screens set via LaunchedEffect.
  • Shared modules need ≥ 2 consumers. Don't put code in designSystem/ or spine/ unless multiple modules use it.
  • Package root: com.template.{module}. Sub-packages by responsibility (network/, screen/, theme/).

Coding Rules

Things that default LLM behavior tends to get wrong:

  • Don't extract helper functions unless reused in ≥ 2 places or the original block is so opaque you'd need comments to explain it. A few inline lines beats a premature helper.
  • No comments except for critical caveats (a hidden constraint, a workaround, a non-obvious invariant). Well-named identifiers carry the intent.
  • Name functions with existing domain vocabulary. Don't invent a parallel term when one is already in use.

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.
