# minix64 — repo-wide rules for Claude
## ⚠️ QEMU: never invoke `qemu-system-x86_64` directly
This has burned every single session that skipped it. Read this before running
QEMU for any reason — boot-testing, debugging, verifying a build.
**Rule:** always launch via `sh boot/distrib/amd64/qemu-boot.sh [iso]`, then poll
with `sh boot/distrib/amd64/qemu-check.sh` and
`python3 boot/distrib/amd64/qemu-hmp.py '<hmp-command>'`. Never run
`qemu-system-x86_64 ...` yourself — not foregrounded, not backg# .clineignore — reduce token spend by excluding files Cline (the agent) never needs to read.
#
# These are the biggest token hogs and are NOT inputs to active work:
# - the whole `minix/` reference submodule (historical-only, never used in builds)
# - vendored upstream source trees (fetched `dist/` under tools/external)
# - build artifacts / objdirs under `.build/`
# - the large parked LLVM cross-compiler source
# - git internals and compiled/generated binaries
