degreeworks-cli: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

degreeworks-cli AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from Aaryan-Kapoor/degreeworks-cli. It costs 3,871 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Project instructions for the DegreeWorks command-line tool at Kennesaw State University. The tool reads a student’s degree audit and course catalogue without changing them.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them to plan a student’s next semester with course prerequisites, section numbers, times, instructors, and available seats. They also support questions about completed and remaining requirements.
Why use it?
They give coding agents a fixed procedure for checking authentication, gathering accurate degree information, and planning a semester. The main goal is a schedule made from real course sections.

Instructions file for CodexOpenCode

Written for Codex and OpenCode: the file is AGENTS.md. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions CLAUDE.md; mentions Claude Code.

This is Aaryan-Kapoor/degreeworks-cli's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on degreeworks-cli 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 degreeworks-cli 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

degreeworks-cli 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 7d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 365 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

AGENTS.md — DegreeWorks CLI

This file is the single source of truth for agent instructions in this project. Every protocol, every command, every constraint is documented here. CLAUDE.md imports this file so Claude Code loads it natively; .claude/skills/degreeworks/SKILL.md points here so Claude skill invocations read it. Update this file when you change agent instructions — never the pointers.

The dw CLI provides strictly read-only access to a KSU student's DegreeWorks degree audit and course catalog. Your headline job is schedule planning: build the student's exact next semester — real sections that fit their constraints, with CRNs, days/times, instructors, and open seats, every prerequisite chain verified — via the Schedule Planning Protocol below. Degree-audit questions ("am I on track?", "what's left?") are supported too, but the schedule is the product.

TL;DR

Planning a semester (the main event) → follow the Schedule Planning Protocol exactly:

dw whoami              # verify auth — always first
dw --md dump           # full snapshot: progress + completed + in-progress + remaining
dw --md course CS 3305 # parsed prereqs + real sections (days/times/CRN/seats) for one course
dw --json doctor       # setup/auth/API state + the exact next command to run

For one-off queries ("what's my GPA?", "show my completed courses"), a single command is fine — no protocol needed.


Schedule Planning Protocol

When to use this protocol: any time the student asks you to help plan a semester, pick courses, build a schedule, or decide what to take next. Not needed for simple informational queries.

Why this protocol exists: schedule planning with an LLM is failure-prone. Models skip verification, hallucinate prereqs, assume constraints, and confuse terms. This protocol is designed to produce consistent, reproducible plans across different LLMs, different users, and different conversations by forcing verification at every step.

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.
