ai-agents-workspace-starter: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

ai-agents-workspace-starter CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from systemowiec/ai-agents-workspace-starter. It costs 1,075 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A starter project guide for teams of coding agents using hexagonal architecture, a design that separates core business logic from outside systems. It defines which folders each teammate may edit and which they must leave alone.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when coordinating backend, frontend, infrastructure, documentation, testing, platform, architecture, or AI-focused agents in the starter project.
Why use it?
It makes parallel work safer by giving each agent a clear area of responsibility and a defined implementation order. This helps prevent overlapping edits and architectural drift.

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

This is systemowiec/ai-agents-workspace-starter's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on ai-agents-workspace-starter itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere.

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

ai-agents-workspace-starter 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 9d 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 99 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

[PROJECT_NAME]

Read AGENTS.md - full project rules (source of truth). This file is loaded automatically by Claude Code (including every teammate in Agent Teams).

Architecture

Hexagonal Architecture (Ports & Adapters). Implementation order: domain -> application -> adapters -> interface.

File Boundaries (Agent Teams)

Every teammate MUST respect file boundaries. Editing outside your scope = error.

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.
