claude-code-kit: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

claude-code-kit CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from This-HW/claude-code-kit. It costs 7,114 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of instructions, agents, and skills for using Claude Code in software projects. Claude Code is a coding assistant that works inside a project and follows written guidance and available tools.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when installing the toolkit, defining its project guidance, or checking that it works outside its own repository and with other integrations.
Why use it?
It explains how to install and design the toolkit so it works in other people's projects, even when their tools and integrations differ. It also provides guidance for working alongside other add-ons.

Instructions file for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} variable. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions .claude-plugin; mentions subagents.

This is This-HW/claude-code-kit's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on claude-code-kit 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 claude-code-kit configures →

Runs only inside a plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else, and the catalogue could not identify which plugin ships it.

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

claude-code-kit 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 1mo 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.

Universal Claude Code toolkit — agents and skills for software development

Who this is for (design north-star)

This is a published plugin installed into other people's projects, not a tool for this repo alone. Every design decision is judged by: does this work in a consumer's environment — where the plugin's files live in the plugin cache (not the project cwd), where MCP servers may be absent or different, where hooks run on every session? A change that only works in this repo is a defect. (Concrete gate in the Contributing checklist.)

Interoperability is a first-class goal: the kit must compose cleanly with other plugins (e.g., superpowers) and with whatever MCP servers the user has (memory MCPs, search MCPs, private/company servers). Three rules: never assume a specific plugin/MCP is present; never conflict with one that is; leverage generically when available (e.g., recall-before-plan / remember-after-done if memory-style tools exist — fail-open otherwise). Guidance lives in skills, never in agent tools: allowlists.

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.
