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

claude-code-rtl-extension 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.

Claude Code RTL Extension

Project Overview

VS Code extension that adds RTL (Right-to-Left) text support for Hebrew, Arabic and Persian to Claude Code's chat interface. Works in VS Code, Cursor, and Antigravity IDEs.

The extension works by injecting CSS and JavaScript into Claude Code's webview files (webview/index.css and webview/index.js). It creates backups before modifying files and can restore them.

Tech Stack

  • Language: TypeScript (strict mode)
  • Build: esbuild (bundled to single dist/extension.js, CJS format)
  • Target: ES2022, Node16 modules
  • VS Code API: ^1.94.0
  • No test framework — no tests exist in this project

Commands

  • npm run build — production build
  • npm run watch — dev build with watch mode
  • npm run package — create VSIX package via @vscode/vsce

Architecture

Six source files in src/:

File Purpose
extension.ts Entry point. Registers commands, handles auto-reactivation on startup, manages global state (mode + version)
types.ts Shared types: ClaudeExtensionInfo, RtlMode, RtlStatus
finder.ts Discovers installed Claude Code extensions on disk across platforms (Win/Mac/Linux/WSL)
injector.ts Core logic: injects/removes CSS+JS into Claude Code files, manages backups, reports status
content.ts All injected CSS rules and JavaScript code as string constants/generators
statusBar.ts VS Code status bar item showing current RTL mode

RTL Modes

  • Active (active) — CSS scoped to .YBYrtl class + toggle button (JS)
  • Always (always) — CSS without class scoping, no JS button
  • Auto (auto) — Per-bubble RTL detection via MutationObserver (JS), .YBYrtl applied per element
  • Inactive (inactive) — RTL removed, original files restored from backup

Key Patterns

  • Injected content is wrapped in start/end markers (e.g. RTL_START_MARKER/RTL_END_MARKER) for clean removal
  • Files are backed up as .bak before injection; restore from backup on deactivation
  • Auto-reactivation runs silently on every activation to re-inject after Claude Code updates
  • Version tracking in globalState prevents stale CSS from stacking
  • The .YBYrtl class is the central CSS scoping mechanism — code blocks, tool output, and thinking blocks are forced LTR

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.
