Impulso CLAUDE.md

Impulso CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for coding agents from thomaspinder/Impulso. It costs 2,353 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Project instructions for Impulso, a Python library for Bayesian Vector Autoregression, a statistical method for modelling several changing values together. They describe the project commands, code layout, testing, documentation, and supported Python versions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Installing dependencies, running tests and coverage, checking types and style, building or serving Sphinx documentation, checking links, and testing across Python versions.
Why use it?
They give an AI coding assistant the commands and structure needed to work safely in the repository. This makes checks such as tests, type checks, formatting, documentation builds, and link checks explicit.

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

Impulso 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 5d 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.

Project Overview

Impulso is a Python library for Bayesian Vector Autoregression (VAR). Early stage, requires Python >=3.11.

Commands

# Install dependencies and prek hooks
make install

# Run all code quality checks (lock file, pre-commit, type checking)
make check

# Run tests with coverage
make test

# Run a single test
uv run python -m pytest tests/test_foo.py::test_foo -v

# Run only fast tests (skip MCMC sampling)
uv run python -m pytest -m "not slow" -v

# Type check only
uv run ty check

# Lint/format only
uv run ruff check . && uv run ruff format .

# Build docs (Sphinx + MyST-NB executes notebooks, caches results)
make docs

# Serve the built docs locally on :8000
make docs-serve

# Build docs in smoke mode, warnings-as-errors (the CI gate)
make docs-ci   # (docs-test is an alias)

# Check external links resolve (no notebook execution)
make docs-linkcheck

# Multi-version test (Python 3.11-3.14)
uv run tox

Architecture

  • Source: src/impulso/ — library code, built as a wheel via Hatchling
  • Tests: tests/ — pytest with --cov, 90% coverage target (codecov.yaml)
  • Docs: docs/ — Sphinx + MyST-NB (docs/conf.py), tutorials as executable jupytext py:percent .py notebooks (read via nb_custom_formats), prose/reference pages as MyST .md. Docstrings auto-rendered via Sphinx autosummary (summary tables + per-object pages generated under docs/reference/generated/, gitignored; custom stub templates in docs/_templates/autosummary/ emit MyST) + napoleon. sphinx-codeautolink links API names in tutorial code to the reference; sphinxcontrib-bibtex powers {cite} (bib in docs/references.bib); sphinx-sitemap emits sitemap.xml; numfig + labelled $$…$$ (label) equations cross-referenced with {eq}`label`. Notebooks execute at build via jupyter-cache; no outputs are committed. Theme: shibuya. Tutorial .py files are excluded from ruff (they are notebooks, not library code).

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.
