Instructions file for Claude Code

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

Not installable: its command points at a path on the author’s own machine, so it runs nowhere else. The line is /Users/justinadams/Downloads/advisor.

Getting it into your agent

There is no command for this one: it runs only inside a plugin, and the catalogue could not identify which plugin ships it. The source is linked below.

Made for: Claude Code.

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

advisor 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 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.

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.

Environment & Commands

Running tests

uv run pytest fails with "Failed to spawn: pytest" unless dev extras are installed. Always use: uv sync --extra dev && uv run pytest -x -q

After editing advisor/orchestrate/_prompts/advisor.txt or any prompt builder, regenerate snapshots: ADVISOR_UPDATE_SNAPSHOTS=1 uv run pytest tests/test_prompt_snapshots.py

Local install (two-step)

uv tool install --reinstall --from /Users/justinadams/Downloads/advisor advisor-agent
advisor install   # refreshes SKILL.md + CLAUDE.md nudge

Registry install (post-PyPI publish): UV_NO_CACHE=1 uv tool install --force advisor-agent

Git workflow

Uncommitted changes block rebase/merge every time — always stash first: git stash && git pull --rebase origin main && git stash pop

Advisor pipeline gotchas

  • SendMessage with a string message requires a summary param or it errors: summary is required when message is a string
  • Agent model field: only bare aliases (opus, sonnet, haiku) or full IDs (claude-opus-4-8) — mid-form strings like opus-4-8 error (advisor CLI normalizes these automatically)
  • CLAUDE_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_AGENT_TEAMS=1 must be set in env for TeamCreate/TeamDelete/SendMessage

Large files (>800 LOC → 3-fix cap in advisor pipeline)

  • advisor/__main__.py ~3400–3600 LOC
  • advisor/rank.py ~1186 LOC
  • advisor/install.py ~890 LOC
  • advisor/orchestrate/runner_prompts.py ~813 LOC

Rust port

cargo test accepts only one test-name pattern; cargo test foo bar errors — use single name or no filter.

Two-model team using Claude Code's TeamCreate/Agent/SendMessage. No external API calls. Models configurable via TeamConfig(advisor_model=, runner_model=) — defaults: claude-opus-4-8 / claude-sonnet-4-6. Claude Code's Agent() tool accepts bare aliases (opus, sonnet, haiku) for "always-latest" or full claude-<family>-<version> IDs to pin a specific version; mid-form strings like opus-4-5 are not accepted.

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.
