groove AGENTS.md

groove AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from andreadellacorte/groove. It costs 104 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Project instructions for the Groove repository. They define which Groove-managed files must not be edited and which files belong to the user’s configuration, hooks, memory, and learned-insight area.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when modifying Groove skills, lock files, or the .groove directory. They explain that managed skill changes should be proposed upstream and that Groove updates should use the stated admin command.
Why use it?
They prevent changes to files that Groove updates automatically and clarify where repository-specific edits are allowed.

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

groove 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 3d 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.

What it actually says

Do not edit .agents/skills/groove-* — managed by groove update; to modify, propose PRs to andreadellacorte/groove; to update, run /groove-admin-update.

Do not edit skills-lock.json — it is managed exclusively by npx skills add and groove update.

.groove/ is the user zone — config, hooks, memory, and learned insights are safe to edit. Don't change its structure (that's done by groove).

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.
