poethepoet: Settings file for Claude Code

.claude/settings.json

poethepoet is a settings file for Claude Code from nat-n/poethepoet. Its token cost is not measured, scanned A, original, MIT.

An agent setting that runs the `poe format` command when the agent stops. It also allows commands beginning with `poe`.

In plain words
What is it for?
Running the project's Poe formatting task at the end of an agent response.
Why use it?
It can format project files automatically after the agent finishes, so formatting does not depend on remembering a separate command.

Settings file for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: installed under .claude/.

This is nat-n/poethepoet's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on poethepoet 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 poethepoet configures →

One of 2 entries in settings.json upstream. Installing this one merges just its entry into your config; the other 1 are separate, each on its own page.

About the project

Poe the Poet is a task runner that lets Python projects define and run named commands from project configuration, including commands, scripts, Python code, and reusable functions. It is used with Poetry, uv, or other environments to automate development workflows. Its catalogue skill helps coding agents use Poe tasks.

Security

Grade A, and why

poethepoet 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 2mo 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.

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.
