+# CLAUDE.md - wax-test
+
+## Project Overview
+
+Test repository for the `@hive/wax` library. Validates cryptographic operations for the Hive blockchain including key generation, signature calculation, transaction serialization, and transaction ID computation.
+
+## Tech Stack
+
+- **Language:** TypeScript 5.1.6
+- **Runtime:** Node.js (minimum v14.17)
+- **Module System:** ES6 modules
+- **Main Dependency:** `@hive/wax` - Hive blockchain cryptographic protocol library
+- **License:** MIT
+
+## Directory Structure
+
+```
+wax-test/
+├── src/
+│   └── index.ts          # Main test file with all validation logic
+├── dist/                 # Compiled JavaScript output (gitignored)
+├── package.json          # Project metadata and scripts
+├── tsconfig.json         # TypeScript configuration
+├── README.md             # Project documentation
+└── LICENSE.md            # MIT license
+```
+
+## Development Commands
+
+```bash
+# Install dependencies (requires custom registry setup first)
+npm config set @hive:registry https://gitlab.syncad.com/api/v4/packages/npm/
+npm install
+
+# Build TypeScript
+npm run build
+
+# Run tests
+npm run start
+```
+
+## Key Files
+
+- `src/index.ts` - Main entry point with all test logic
+- `tsconfig.json` - Strict TypeScript config (ES6 target, strict null checks, no unused locals)
+- `package.json` - Defines build/start scripts
+
+## Coding Conventions
+
+- **Imports:** Use `assert` from `'assert'` (not `'node:assert'`)
+- **Async/await:** Use async IIFE pattern for main entry point
+- **Assertions:** Use Node.js built-in `assert` module (`assert.ok()`, `assert.equal()`, `assert.match()`)
+- **Error handling:** Use `.catch()` on promises with `process.exit(1)` for failures
+- **Exit codes:** 0 for success, 1 for failure
+
+## CI/CD Notes
+
+No CI pipeline configured. Build and test manually with:
+```bash
+npm run build && npm run start
+```
