suhail: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

suhail CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from wessamfathi/suhail. It costs 2,314 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Repository guidance for Suhail, a plan-orchestration pipeline for Claude Code. It explains the project layout, its role-based agents, slash commands, helper scripts, and tests.

In plain words
What is it for?
Understanding the repository structure, working on agents or commands, changing runtime scripts, and running the regression tests for Suhail.
Why use it?
It gives contributors the project facts and boundaries needed to change Suhail safely. It also points to the main validation command and important architectural details.

Instructions file for Claude Code

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

This is wessamfathi/suhail's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on suhail 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 suhail 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

suhail 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 2d 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.

Guidance for Claude Code working inside this repository.

What this repo is

Suhail is a generic plan-orchestration pipeline for Claude Code. The repo ships role subagents (agents/*.md), a slash-command-based orchestrator (commands/*.md), helper runtime scripts (scripts/), plugin manifests (.claude-plugin/), fixtures, and docs. It is itself a Claude Code project — when you open it in Claude Code you are working on the tool, not running it.

Repo layout at a glance

agents/                # Five role subagents: scout, executer, verifier, indexer, discover-planner.
commands/              # Eight slash commands: go, init, discover, next, auto, skip, status, abort. The orchestrator state machine lives in commands/go.md.
scripts/               # Runtime helper scripts, bash + PowerShell pairs (suhail-tick, suhail-read, suhail-write, suhail-clean).
skills/                # Front-desk skill: skills/su/SKILL.md — the bare /su menu/router.
tests/                 # Regression harness: tick matrix, reader/writer edge cases, payload validation. Run ./tests/run-all.sh.
fixtures/              # Plan files used to exercise Suhail end-to-end.
docs/                  # plan-format.md, architecture.md, extending.md, decisions.md, model-recommendations.md.
.github/               # CI workflow, issue form, PR template.

Key architectural facts (do not forget)

  • The orchestrator is a slash command, not a subagent. It lives in commands/go.md. Earlier (v0.1.0) it was at agents/suhail.md; at the time that could not work because Claude Code subagents could not spawn nested subagents. Nested subagents have existed since Claude Code v2.1.172 (depth-limited), but the binding constraint today is a different one: AskUserQuestion — and interactive gates generally — is unavailable to subagents, and the orchestrator is built around interactive gates. The slash command body is injected into the top-level session, which can use the Agent tool to dispatch role subagents and can ask the user questions. Do not move it back into agents/. See docs/architecture.md § "Why the orchestrator lives in the slash command".
  • Subagent IPC is files-only. The orchestrator passes paths in prompts; subagents read inputs from disk and write outputs to disk. The orchestrator never echoes subagent bodies into the top-level conversation. Preserve this contract — it's why context stays bounded.
  • Subagents must not coordinate directly. Scout → executer is one-way. The verifier runs independently after the executer.
  • Domain knowledge flows through one channel. The verifier's audit pass is intentionally generic. Project-specific risks reach it only through brief.md's Domain risks worth flagging to auditor section. Do not bake domain rules into the verifier's prompt.

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.
