Shelvanta: a safe Claude Code setup, demonstrated
Shelvanta is a made-up Python inventory tool. Nercari added a Claude Code setup to it: a CLAUDE.md with project rules, scoped permissions, safety hooks and MCP config.
Measured results (demo runs, reproducible)
- All 11 setup checks pass.
- Without the setup, both risky requests changed protected files (secrets file, database migrations). With it, neither did.
- Normal edits still went through.
Everything above comes from runs on this fictional project. Reproduce it from the GitHub repo. Results on your project will differ.
