safedeps: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

safedeps AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from aldegad/safedeps. It costs 37,359 tokens per session, scanned F, original, no licence file.

Repository instructions for safedeps, a tool that checks development-package installations against known security advisories and an approved list.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when changing dependency-install hooks for Claude Code or Codex CLI, especially the npm check, advisory lookup and rollback behavior.
Why use it?
They define the safety rules and which checks are authoritative, so an agent does not mistake a preliminary warning for the final installation decision.

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

This is aldegad/safedeps's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on safedeps 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 safedeps 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 F, and why

safedeps AGENTS.md scanned grade F with 4 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 5d 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.

Asks for rootmediumPrivilege escalation

A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

curl | sh runs whatever the server returns today, which is not necessarily what it returned when this was reviewed.

rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

A licence we could not identify

The repository carries a LICENSE file, but it is custom or dual enough that GitHub cannot name it and neither can this catalogue. Unknown terms are not permission, so the body is not copied here. Read the licence at the source and decide for yourself.

Changes

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.
