omnisearch-mcp: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

omnisearch-mcp AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from All3yp/omnisearch-mcp. It costs 1,014 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Project instructions for Omnisearch MCP, a tool server that searches academic papers across services such as arXiv, IEEE, ACM, and Semantic Scholar, as well as local PDF collections.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when developing or operating Omnisearch MCP, especially for searching papers, handling authentication errors, or keeping its agent instructions synchronized.
Why use it?
They tell coding agents how to use the search tools, handle provider limits, and recover when login or access credentials expire.

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

This is All3yp/omnisearch-mcp's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on omnisearch-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 omnisearch-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

omnisearch-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 2mo 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.

Project Overview

omnisearch-mcp is a FastMCP server exposing tools for searching academic papers across multiple search providers (IEEE Xplore, arXiv, ACM, CrossRef, Semantic Scholar, CORE, Scite.ai, Consensus.app) and local PDF libraries.

MCP Consumer Skill

Agents that call this server must read .github/skills/omnisearch-mcp/SKILL.md (also mirrored at .claude/skills/omnisearch-mcp/SKILL.md for Claude Code). It defines the tool contract, result shape, provider limits, authentication recovery, IEEE pagination, and the responsibility of the calling agent to produce any required structured synthesis. Keep both copies in sync when editing.

Agent Usage & Error Recovery Protocol

1. How to Use MCP Tools

  • Use search_all to search all academic sources in parallel.
  • Use targeted tools (search_ieee, search_scite, search_consensus, search_arxiv, search_pdf_library) for provider-specific queries.

2. What to do when Cookies / Auth Expire

If an MCP tool returns auth_required: true, expired-cookie text, IEEEKeyMissingError, 401 Unauthorized, 403 Forbidden, a login redirect, or HTML instead of JSON:

  1. Do NOT edit source code.
  2. Do NOT retry the same provider in a loop. Stop, report the auth block, and wait for human relogin.
  3. Ask the human to run the command returned by the tool's command field. Defaults:
    • CAPES / IEEE (highest priority): uv run omnisearch-capes-login (visible browser recommended; use --headless only if it is known to work)
    • Scite.ai: uv run omnisearch-scite-login
    • Consensus.app: uv run omnisearch-consensus-login
  4. Wait until the login script reports success. The script persists browser state in .omnisearch/sessions/ and writes derived cookies to .env.
  5. Retry the MCP tool once. If auth_required: true persists, stop and ask the human to relogin visibly/manual-complete MFA/CAPTCHA/SSO.

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.
