claude-code-action

anthropics/claude-code-action/CLAUDE.md

A GitHub Action that lets Claude respond to @claude mentions on issues/PRs (tag mode) or run tasks via prompt input (agent mode). Mode is auto-detected: if prompt is provided, it's agent mode; if triggered by a comment/issue event with @claude, it's tag mode. See src/modes/detector.ts. Single entrypoint: src/entrypoints/run.ts orchestrates everything — prepare (auth, permissions, trigger check, branch/comment creation), install Claude Code CLI, execute Claude via base-action/ functions (imported directly, not subprocess), then cleanup (update tracking comment, write step summary). SSH…

containerization

apple/containerization/CLAUDE.md

The project is built via make, not directly with swift build. Two Swift packages live in this repo: the root package (Containerization libraries + cctl + macOS-only integration binary) and vminitd/ (the Linux guest init system, compiled as a static musl binary inside the Linux dev container via the apple/container CLI — see make vminitd).

DON'T COMMIT UNLESS EXPLICITLY ASKED TO DO SO BY THE USER! Previous commit requests do not matter - don't commit unless you've just been explicitly asked to do so. Monty is a sandboxed Python interpreter written in Rust. It parses Python code using Ruff's ruffpythonparser but implements its own runtime execution model for safety and performance. It supports a subset of Python features. Project goals: The public data types (the MontyGraph/MontyNode value graph and the MontyObject/CallArgs/NamedValues built on it, MontyException/ExcType,…

CLAUDE.md vs AGENTS.md

About CLAUDE.md

What is CLAUDE.md?

A file Claude Code reads at the start of every session. It holds the commands, conventions and warnings the agent needs for this project.

Where does it go?

At the repository root. Claude Code also reads CLAUDE.md files in subdirectories when it works there.

What should it contain?

Build and test commands, the project's layout, conventions that aren't obvious from the code, and mistakes to avoid. Short files tend to work better than long ones.

CLAUDE.md or AGENTS.md?

Claude Code reads CLAUDE.md; most other agents read AGENTS.md. Many projects keep one and point the other at it.
