dap-dbgeng: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

dap-dbgeng CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from svnscha/dap-dbgeng. It costs 1,534 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Project instructions for a Windows debugging server that lets tools such as Visual Studio Code control native Windows debugging through the Debug Adapter Protocol, a standard interface for debuggers. It also documents its C++ build, tests, formatting, generated files, and extension packaging.

In plain words
What is it for?
Building and testing the debugger, generating protocol-related files, formatting changed C++ code, compiling the editor extension, and packaging a VSIX extension for release.
Why use it?
They give an AI coding assistant the project’s build and release rules, target platform, code conventions, and supported development commands.

Instructions file for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md.

This is svnscha/dap-dbgeng's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on dap-dbgeng 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 dap-dbgeng 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

dap-dbgeng 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 7d 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 — 98 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

dap-dbgeng

A Windows Debug Adapter Protocol server backed by the Windows debug engine (dbgeng / dbghelp). DAP-speaking clients (e.g. VS Code) drive native Windows debugging through it. C++20, CMake + Ninja, vcpkg manifest mode. The single product is dap-dbgeng.exe, a console app that speaks DAP over stdin/stdout.

Build / test / format

The Ninja build needs the MSVC toolchain on the environment. The npm scripts enter the VS developer shell automatically (via scripts/With-DevEnv.ps1), so they work from any shell:

npm run configure     # cmake --preset windows-x64 (Ninja, vcpkg from VCPKG_ROOT)
npm run build         # cmake --build --preset windows-debug
npm test              # ctest --preset windows-debug  (unit + integration + replay)
npm run generate      # regenerate src/protocol from the DAP schema
npm run matrix        # regenerate the request coverage page (docs/development/request-coverage.md)
npm run build:vsix    # Release adapter + bundle it into the extension + package the VSIX
pwsh scripts/Format.ps1   # clang-format changed files (git-aware)

The extension is TypeScript: npm --prefix vscode run compile type-checks and emits vscode/out (what main points at, and what vscode:prepublish runs before packaging).

The request coverage matrix is generated, not hand-maintained: npm run matrix rewrites docs/development/request-coverage.md from the dispatch, handlers, and replay fixtures, and CI runs npm run matrix:check to fail if the committed page drifts. Regenerate and commit it after adding a handler or a replay fixture.

Running cmake/ctest directly works too, but only from a VS developer environment (e.g. the "x64 Native Tools" prompt) so cl/link are on PATH and VCPKG_ROOT points at the bundled vcpkg. Windows-only (dbgeng). vcpkg deps (vcpkg.json): fmt, nlohmann-json, spdlog, gtest. vcpkg is pinned via builtin-baseline in vcpkg.json; bump that commit deliberately to move dependency versions (the manifest lists no per-package version constraints).

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.
