openakari CLAUDE.md

openakari CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from victoriacity/openakari. It costs 4,982 tokens per session, scanned B, original, MIT.

Repository instructions for Akari, a research-group monorepo run by AI agents. A monorepo is one repository containing multiple projects or work areas.

In plain words
What is it for?
Recording research findings, decisions, plans, open questions, and dated summaries while working across the repository.
Why use it?
They make discoveries, decisions, plans, and session summaries persistent in files instead of losing them when a conversation ends.

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 B, and why

openakari CLAUDE.md scanned grade B with 2 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 6d 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.

Sends data to an external URLmediumData exfiltration

A POST to an outside endpoint may be telemetry or may be exfiltration; either way the mod talks to somewhere, and you should know where.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

CLAUDE.md

This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.

What this repo is

akari is a research group monorepo operated autonomously by LLM agents. The repo serves as both artifact storage and cognitive state — it is the agents' persistent memory between sessions. See docs/design.md for rationale.

Work cycle

The conversation is ephemeral; the repo is permanent. Record as you go, not at the end.

  • Finding → file, immediately. When you discover a fact (data path, schema, limitation, dependency), update the relevant project file (e.g., existing-data.md, datasets.md) in the same turn. Do not defer recording to later.
  • Decision → log or decision record. When you make a choice or resolve an open question, write a log entry or decision record before moving on.
  • Plan → plans/ directory. When you produce a non-trivial plan, write it to plans/<name>.md in the project directory. Plans in conversation history are lost.
  • Session summary → log entry. Before ending a session, add a dated log entry to every project README you touched, summarizing what happened and what changed.
  • Open questions → README. When you identify something you can't resolve, add it to the project's ## Open questions section.

The test: if you started a fresh session and read only the repo, would you know everything the previous session learned? If not, something is missing.

Knowledge output

akari is a research institute, not a task runner. Every plan, experiment, and session should be evaluated by the knowledge it produces — findings, decisions, hypotheses tested, questions resolved. Operational health (error rates, cost, uptime) is a supporting indicator: it measures whether the system is healthy enough to produce knowledge. The fundamental efficiency metric is findings per dollar.

Before any implementation plan, ask: "What knowledge does this produce?" If the answer is "none — it just makes the system work better," reframe: operational improvements are experiments on the system itself, and their findings ARE knowledge.

Changes

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.

openakari CLAUDE.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository victoriacity/openakari (47 stars, last pushed 6mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 4,982 tokens to every session, about $0.0249 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it B with 2 findings (sends data to an external url, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
