mealie-mcp: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

mealie-mcp AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from 2fst4u/mealie-mcp. It costs 518 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Repository instructions for agents working on the Mealie MCP project. They require checking open pull requests before changing a file or symbol and allow an agent to report that no code change is needed.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for coordinating changes around open pull requests and deciding whether to make or stop without a code change.
Why use it?
They help avoid duplicate work when several agents are working in the same repository and clarify when stopping without a change is the correct result.

Instructions file for CodexOpenCode

Written for Codex and OpenCode: the file is AGENTS.md.

This is 2fst4u/mealie-mcp's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on mealie-mcp itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything mealie-mcp configures →

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

mealie-mcp AGENTS.md scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 25d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

AI Agent Instructions

These instructions are intended for AI tools and agents working on this repository.

Before you start: look at the open pull requests

List the open pull requests and check whether one already touches the file or symbol you are about to change. If it does, work on something else.

Several agents run against this repository independently and cannot see each other's work, so they converge on the same target often. One review across these repositories found three byte-identical pull requests renaming a single import, three separate attempts at splitting one function, and three sets of tests for one endpoint — eleven of the thirty rejected pull requests were duplicates of another open one.

.github/workflows/overlapping-pr-check.yml comments on a pull request when another open one edits the same files. It does not block anything; overlap is normal on a busy branch. Treat it as a prompt to check whether the two are doing the same work, and to close the weaker one before both reach review.

Reporting "no change needed"

Finding that a task needs no code change is a complete result. Report it and stop. Do not open a pull request, and do not add an unrelated edit so that a pull request has something to carry.

This used to be enforced the other way round. A CI gate (empty-commit-check) failed any branch whose diff was empty. It did stop empty pull requests, and it started a worse habit: agents began manufacturing a change to get the gate green. One wrote the tactic into its own journal — "apply a completely safe, trivial code health cleanup ... to satisfy the CI file modification requirement" — directly beneath an older entry telling the same agent not to introduce unnecessary modifications.

The filler was not always safe. Across one review of the open pull requests in these repositories it suppressed worker error reporting in production builds, made a failed upload report the wrong reason, and moved a content-type check to after the response had been buffered into memory.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
