# Claude Code instructions

See [AGENTS.md](./AGENTS.md) — same content, kept canonical there so

Codex, Cursor, Aider, and other agents that respect the AGENTS.md

convention stay in sync with you.

## Claude-specific notes

- This repo defaults to the Anthropic backend (`JUDGE_BACKEND =

"anthropic"` in `config.py`). If the user wants to use their Claude

Max subscription's Agent SDK credit instead of API-key billing,

that's a forthcoming option (Anthropic enabled subscription-funded

programmatic credits on June 15, 2026). A third backend

`judge_claude_code.py` shelling out to `claude -p` is the natural

place to wire it; not implemented yet — flag as future work if asked.

- When walking the user through setup (see AGENTS.md Phase 1-5), use

your file-editing and shell tools to make the config changes

directly, rather than asking the user to copy-paste. Show the diff

before writing.

- - Do not run `python main.py` yourself. The user runs it on their own

- emulator. You can run `python -c "import config; import main"` to

- verify imports after a change.
