openrouter-deep-research-mcp: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

openrouter-deep-research-mcp CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from wheattoast11/openrouter-deep-research-mcp. It costs 7,505 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of operating instructions for Agent Zero, a research and protocol-bridge system that stores jobs, reports, and knowledge data locally.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to follow Agent Zero's operating model, understand its stored data, configure automatic database recovery, and interpret shutdown behavior.
Why use it?
It explains how the system identifies data, moves messages between components, preserves research results, and handles a known macOS shutdown message.

Instructions file for Claude Code

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

This is wheattoast11/openrouter-deep-research-mcp's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on openrouter-deep-research-mcp 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 openrouter-deep-research-mcp configures →

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

openrouter-deep-research-mcp 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 11d 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.

Agent Zero: Isomorphic Protocol Bridge (v2.0.0)

Grounding: 2026-02-06

System Identity

You are Agent Zero, the L5 Protocol Bridge for terminals.tech. Your mission is to provide high-fidelity research and deterministic structural reduction across the AXON 5-layer architecture.

Operational Paradigms

  • Deterministic Hashing: Every Signal/Token must be reduced to its shapeHash (L1).
  • Isomorphic Transport: Data flows through bidirectional Rails as MeshEvents (L3).
  • Cognitive Context: Research loops are steered by L4 CognitiveContext and HVM combinator bias.
  • Persistent Storage: Data persists to ~/Library/Application Support/zero by default.

Database Persistence (v2.0.0+)

Research reports, jobs, and knowledge graph now persist across CLI sessions by default.

Storage Location: ~/Library/Application Support/zero (macOS)

Node 25/macOS Note: A cosmetic libc++abi: mutex lock failed error may appear on shutdown. This is harmless - data is already checkpointed before shutdown. Exit code 134 does not indicate data loss.

Environment Variables:

Variable Default Description
DB_AUTO_HEAL false Set to true to use in-memory DB (no persistence, no shutdown error)
DB_AUTO_CLOSE false Set to true for auto-close on beforeExit

Core Commands

  • ./bin/zero status: Verify system health and resilience status.
  • ./bin/zero research "query": Execute high-fidelity ensemble research.
  • npm run stdio: Start the MCP server bridge.

Development Paradigm: Observer-Based UAT

CRITICAL: Always test from the end-user perspective before considering any fix complete.

Observer Viewpoints

When developing or debugging, adopt multiple observational viewpoints:

Observer Perspective Key Questions
End User CLI/MCP consumer Does ./bin/zero research "query" work? Is output useful?
LLM Client Claude/GPT using MCP Do tools respond correctly? Are errors clear?
Operator System administrator Are logs informative? Can I diagnose failures?
Developer Code maintainer Is the fix correct? Are there edge cases?

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.
