Can I use client-mods?

As long the client mod does not give you a advantage that could be considered as cheating (for example; flying or radar)

Can I use optifine?
Yes of course you may. provided that it is a non-modified optifine mod created by sp614x (on minecraft forum).

Can I use a minimap like REI's-minimap?

Please read above. some mini-maps like REI's-minimap will disable mobs/player/cave finders, theses of course can be bypassed (not going to tell you how) but this would then be classed as a hack.
