This is a reverse-engineered / decompiled version of Anthropic's official Claude Code CLI tool. The goal is to restore core functionality while trimming secondary capabilities. Many modules are stubbed or feature-flagged off. TypeScript strict mode is enforced — bun run precheck 必须零错误通过（包含 typecheck + lint fix + test）。使用 Conventional Commits 规范：常见 type：feat、fix、docs、chore、refactor 示例： - feat: 添加模型 1M 上下文切换 - fix: 修复初次登陆的校验问题 - chore: remove prefetchOfficialMcpUrls call on startup 详细的测试规范、覆盖状态和改进计划见 docs/testing-spec.md。

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.
