35
+ "Work" shall mean the work of authorship, whether in Source or
36
+ Object form, made available under the License, as indicated by a
37
+ copyright notice that is included in or attached to the work
38
+ (an example is provided in the Appendix below).
39
+
40
+ "Derivative Works" shall mean any work, whether in Source or Object
41
+ form, that is based on (or derived from) the Work and for which the
42
+ editorial revisions, annotations, elaborations, or other modifications
43
+ represent, as a whole, an original work of authorship. For the purposes
44
+ of this License, Derivative Works shall not include works that remain
45
+ separable from, or merely link (or bind by name) to the interfaces of,
46
+ the Work and Derivative Works thereof.
47
+
48
+ "Contribution" shall mean any work of authorship, including

+ the original version of the Work and any modifications or additions
50
+ to that Work or Derivative Works thereof, that is intentionally
51
+ submitted to Licensor for inclusion in the Work by the copyright owner
52
+ or by an individual or Legal Entity authorized to submit on behalf of
53
+ the copyright owner. For the purposes of this definition, "submitted"

+ to the Licensor or its representatives, including but not limited to
56
+ communication on electronic mailing lists, source code control systems,

+
62
+ "Contributor" shall mean Licensor and any individual or Legal Entity

+ subsequently incorporated within the Work.
65
+
66
+ 2. Grant of Copyright License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
67
+ this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
68
+ worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
69
+ copyright license to reproduce, prepare Derivative Works of,
70
+ publicly display, publicly perform, sublicense, and distribute the
71
+ Work and such Derivative Works in Source or Object form.
72
+
73
+ 3. Grant of Patent License. Subject to the terms and conditions of

76
+ (except as stated in this section) patent license to make, have made,
77
+ use, offer to sell, sell, import, and otherwise transfer the Work,

+ where such license applies only to those patent claims licensable
79
+ by such Contributor that are necessarily infringed by their
80
+ Contribution(s) alone or by combination of their Contribution(s)
81
+ with the Work to which such Contribution(s) was submitted. If You
82
+ institute patent litigation against any entity (including a
83
+ cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Work
84
+ or a Contribution incorporated within the Work constitutes direct
85
+ or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses
86
+ granted to You under this License for that Work shall terminate
87
+ as of the date such litigation is filed.
88
+
89
+ 4. Redistribution. You may reproduce and distribute copies of the
90
+ Work or Derivative Works thereof in any medium, with or without
91
+ modifications, and in Source or Object form, provided that You
92
+ meet the following conditions:
93
+
94
+ (a) You must give any other recipients of the Work or
95
+ Derivative Works a copy of this License; and
96
+
97
+ (b) You must cause any modified files to carry prominent notices
98
+ stating that You changed the files; and
99
+
100
+ (c) You must retain, in the Source form of any Derivative Works
101
+ that You distribute, all copyright, patent, trademark, and
102
+ attribution notices from the Source form of the Work,
103
+ excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of
104
+ the Derivative Works; and
105
+
106
+ (d) If the Work includes a "NOTICE" text file as part of its
107
+ distribution, then any Derivative Works that You distribute must
108
+ include a readable copy of the attribution notices contained
109
+ within such NOTICE file, excluding those notices that do not
110
+ pertain to any part of the Derivative Works, in at least one
111
+ of the following places: within a NOTICE text file distributed
112
+ as part of the Derivative Works; within the Source form or
113
+ documentation, if provided along with the Derivative Works; or,
114
+ within a display generated by the Derivative Works, if and
115
+ wherever such third-party notices normally appear. The contents
116
+ of the NOTICE file are for informational purposes only and
117
+ do not modify the License. You may add Your own attribution
118
+ notices within Derivative Works that You distribute, alongside
119
+ or as an addendum to the NOTICE text from the Work, provided
120
+ that such additional attribution notices cannot be construed
121
+ as modifying the License.
122
+
123
+ You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and
124
+ may provide additional or different license terms and conditions
125
+ for use, reproduction, or distribution of Your modifications, or
126
+ for any such Derivative Works as a whole, provided Your use,
127
+ reproduction, and distribution of the Work otherwise complies with
128
+ the conditions stated in this License.
129
+
130
+ 5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
131
+ any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
132
+ by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
133
+ this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
134
+ Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
135
+ the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
136
+ with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
137
+
138
+ 6. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade
139
+ names, trademarks, service marks, or product names of the Licensor,
140
+ except as required for reasonable and customary use in describing the
141
+ origin of the Work and reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.
142
+
143
+ 7. Disclaimer of Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or
144
+ agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
145
+ Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
146
+ WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
147
+ implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
148
+ of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
149
+ PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
150
+ appropriateness of using or redistributing the Work and assume any
151
+ risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
152
+
153
+ 8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
154
+ whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
155
+ unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
156
+ negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
157
+ liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
158
+ incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a
159
+ result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
160
+ Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
161
+ work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
162
+ other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
163
+ has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
164
+
165
+ 9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
166
+ the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
167
+ and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
168
+ or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
169
+ License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
170
+ on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
171
+ of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
172
+ defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
173
+ incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason
174
+ of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.

22
+ # glitch
23
+
24
+ Install the practices from *Building Your Store Or Your SaaS With Claude* into
25
+ your own repository, and check that they still refuse things.
26
+
27
+ ```bash
28
+ glitch install # put the artifacts in this repository
29
+ glitch status # what is installed, what is not
30
+ glitch check --all # verify every step
31
+ ```
32
+
33
+ ## What it actually checks
34
+
35
+ A step is not complete because a file is present. Every check does three things
36
+ and reports which of them failed:
37
+
38
+ 1. finds the artifact
39
+ 2. runs it, and expects it to work
40
+ 3. runs it against a deliberately broken case, and expects it to **refuse**
41
+
42
+ Without the third, a check passes the moment you copy a file in, whether or not
43
+ that file has any teeth left, and it would be green for every reader forever.
44
+ `tests/test_cli.py` exists to prove the checker fails that case; its `SABOTAGE`
45
+ test installs artifacts that run, exit 0 and refuse nothing.
46
+
47
+ ## What `install` will not do
48
+
49
+ It will not write your `CLAUDE.md`, `FLEET.md`, `FLOOR.md` or `PLAN.md`. Four of
50
+ the six steps are checked against your own file, because for those four the file
51
+ *is* the work: a rules file that holds, a desk table with one committer, a floor
52
+ measured twice, a plan someone else approved. A command that wrote them would
53
+ turn the path into "you ran an installer". The `FLOOR.md` and `PLAN.md` templates
54
+ ship deliberately unpassable for the same reason.
55
+
56
+ It will not overwrite. An artifact already in your repo is left alone and
57
+ reported as kept; `--force` is how you say otherwise.
58
+
59
+ It writes nothing outside the directory you point it at, makes no network calls,
60
+ and has no dependencies outside the standard library.
61
+
62
+ ## Running it without installing it
63
+
64
+ `cli.py` is one file and stays one file. Copy it into a repository and `status`
65
+ and `check` work with nothing on the path and no install step — that property is
66
+ deliberate and there is a test for the search paths it uses. Only `install`
67
+ needs the rest of the package, and it says so plainly rather than failing oddly.
68
+
69
+ ## The MCP server (read-only)
70
+
71
+ ```bash
72
+ pip install 'glitch-toolkit[mcp]'
73
+ glitch-mcp --repo .
74
+ ```
75
+
76
+ It offers the checks to an agent as three tools — `glitch_status`, `glitch_check`,
77
+ `glitch_ledger_tail` — and appends every question and answer to
78
+ `.claude/toolkit/ledger/ledger.jsonl`.
79
+
80
+ **It gates nothing.** It cannot pause, block, refuse or intercept any action. It
81
+ has no database connection, no credential and no network call. That is the whole
82
+ first version, on purpose: a server that stands between an agent and a
83
+ production database is serious software, and the honest order is to run
84
+ read-only first, read the ledger, and find out what it *would* have refused
85
+ before giving it the power to refuse. A gate built before that record exists is
86
+ a guess with permissions.
87
+
88
+ The checks write nothing into your repository. The server breaks that in exactly
89
+ one place — it appends to the ledger — and `--no-ledger` turns off even that, at
90
+ the cost of the only thing worth keeping.
91
+
92
+ In Claude Code, `.mcp.json`:
93
+
94
+ ```json
95
+ {
96
+ "mcpServers": {
97
+ "glitch": { "command": "glitch-mcp", "args": ["--repo", "."] }
98
+ }
99
+ }
100
+ ```
101
+
102
+ ### The ledger
103
+
104
+ Append-only JSONL. Nothing rewrites a line it did not just write; a record that
105
+ is overtaken is superseded by a new one and both stay; a field nobody measured
106
+ is `null` rather than `0`; a half-written last line is skipped and counted, never
107
+ repaired, because repairing it means rewriting the file.
108
+
109
+ ## Tests
110
+
111
+ ```bash
112
+ python tests/run_all.py # all three suites, 38 tests
113
+ ```
114
+
115
+ The server suite skips cleanly without the `[mcp]` extra and the runner reports
116
+ that as SKIPPED rather than passing, because a green line meaning "we did not
117
+ look" is the exact failure the gate-check practice exists to catch.

120

121
+ Apache License 2.0 — see [LICENSE](https://github.com/AbstractGlitch/glitch-toolkit/blob/main/LICENSE)
122
+ and [NOTICE](https://github.com/AbstractGlitch/glitch-toolkit/blob/main/NOTICE). Chosen over MIT for

125
+ Everything in this repository is under it. Use it commercially, change it,
126

127
+
128
+ The links above are absolute on purpose: this README is also the package's
129
+ description on PyPI, where a relative link resolves against `pypi.org` and
130
+ returns a 404.
131
+
132
+ ## Where this comes from
133
+
134
+ This repository is a published mirror. The package is developed inside a private
135
+ monorepo alongside the book *Building Your Store Or Your SaaS With Claude*, whose
136
+ practices it installs and checks, and it is pushed here as a subtree. The book,
137
+ the shop that sells it and the rest of that repository are **not** open source
138
+ and are not here. Nothing is being withheld from this repository that belongs to
139
+ the package.
140
+
141
+ Issues and pull requests belong here rather than there, because here is the part
142
+ anyone can read.

145

146
+ Version 0.1.0, the first release. It installs, and the practices it checks are
147
+ the six the book argues for.
148
+
149
+ What it is not yet: it gates nothing. `glitch-mcp` reports and records and
150
+ cannot block an agent from doing anything. That is deliberate and the reasoning
151
+ is in `mcp_server.py` — a server that stands between an agent and a production
152
+ database should earn its evidence before it earns the power to refuse.

+ # glitch
2
+
3
+ Install the practices from *Building Your Store Or Your SaaS With Claude* into
4
+ your own repository, and check that they still refuse things.
5
+
6
+ ```bash
7
+ glitch install # put the artifacts in this repository
8
+ glitch status # what is installed, what is not
9
+ glitch check --all # verify every step
10
+ ```
11
+
12
+ ## What it actually checks
13
+
14
+ A step is not complete because a file is present. Every check does three things
15
+ and reports which of them failed:
16
+
17
+ 1. finds the artifact
18
+ 2. runs it, and expects it to work
19
+ 3. runs it against a deliberately broken case, and expects it to **refuse**
20
+
21
+ Without the third, a check passes the moment you copy a file in, whether or not
22
+ that file has any teeth left, and it would be green for every reader forever.
23
+ `tests/test_cli.py` exists to prove the checker fails that case; its `SABOTAGE`
24
+ test installs artifacts that run, exit 0 and refuse nothing.
25
+
26
+ ## What `install` will not do
27
+
28
+ It will not write your `CLAUDE.md`, `FLEET.md`, `FLOOR.md` or `PLAN.md`. Four of
29
+ the six steps are checked against your own file, because for those four the file
30
+ *is* the work: a rules file that holds, a desk table with one committer, a floor
31
+ measured twice, a plan someone else approved. A command that wrote them would
32
+ turn the path into "you ran an installer". The `FLOOR.md` and `PLAN.md` templates
33
+ ship deliberately unpassable for the same reason.
34
+
35
+ It will not overwrite. An artifact already in your repo is left alone and
36
+ reported as kept; `--force` is how you say otherwise.
37
+
38
+ It writes nothing outside the directory you point it at, makes no network calls,
39
+ and has no dependencies outside the standard library.
40
+
41
+ ## Running it without installing it
42
+
43
+ `cli.py` is one file and stays one file. Copy it into a repository and `status`
44
+ and `check` work with nothing on the path and no install step — that property is
45
+ deliberate and there is a test for the search paths it uses. Only `install`
46
+ needs the rest of the package, and it says so plainly rather than failing oddly.
47
+
48
+ ## The MCP server (read-only)
49
+
50
+ ```bash
51
+ pip install 'glitch-toolkit[mcp]'
52
+ glitch-mcp --repo .
53
+ ```
54
+
55
+ It offers the checks to an agent as three tools — `glitch_status`, `glitch_check`,
56
+ `glitch_ledger_tail` — and appends every question and answer to
57
+ `.claude/toolkit/ledger/ledger.jsonl`.
58
+
59
+ **It gates nothing.** It cannot pause, block, refuse or intercept any action. It
60
+ has no database connection, no credential and no network call. That is the whole
61
+ first version, on purpose: a server that stands between an agent and a
62
+ production database is serious software, and the honest order is to run
63
+ read-only first, read the ledger, and find out what it *would* have refused
64
+ before giving it the power to refuse. A gate built before that record exists is
65
+ a guess with permissions.
66
+
67
+ The checks write nothing into your repository. The server breaks that in exactly
68
+ one place — it appends to the ledger — and `--no-ledger` turns off even that, at
69
+ the cost of the only thing worth keeping.
70
+
71
+ In Claude Code, `.mcp.json`:
72
+
73
+ ```json
74
+ {
75
+ "mcpServers": {
76
+ "glitch": { "command": "glitch-mcp", "args": ["--repo", "."] }
77
+ }
78
+ }
79
+ ```
80
+
81
+ ### The ledger
82
+
83
+ Append-only JSONL. Nothing rewrites a line it did not just write; a record that
84
+ is overtaken is superseded by a new one and both stay; a field nobody measured
85
+ is `null` rather than `0`; a half-written last line is skipped and counted, never
86
+ repaired, because repairing it means rewriting the file.
87
+
88
+ ## Tests
89
+
90
+ ```bash
91
+ python tests/run_all.py # all three suites, 38 tests
92
+ ```
93
+
94
+ The server suite skips cleanly without the `[mcp]` extra and the runner reports
95
+ that as SKIPPED rather than passing, because a green line meaning "we did not
96
+ look" is the exact failure the gate-check practice exists to catch.

+
111
+ ## Where this comes from
112
+
113
+ This repository is a published mirror. The package is developed inside a private
114
+ monorepo alongside the book *Building Your Store Or Your SaaS With Claude*, whose
115
+ practices it installs and checks, and it is pushed here as a subtree. The book,
116
+ the shop that sells it and the rest of that repository are **not** open source
117
+ and are not here. Nothing is being withheld from this repository that belongs to
118
+ the package.
119
+
120
+ Issues and pull requests belong here rather than there, because here is the part
121
+ anyone can read.
