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

codex-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 1mo 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 — 58 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

AGENTS.md — codex-mcp / codex-flow

Source of the codex-mcp npm package and the codex-flow Claude Code plugin. The plugin's behavior is defined in markdown instruction files, not runtime code.

Build & test

  • npm test — vitest (tests/*.test.ts, AAA style). Must stay green before any commit.
  • npm run build — tsc to dist/.
  • node scripts/check-command-sync.mjs — command-mirror gate (see below).
  • node scripts/check-release-consistency.mjs — version-agreement gate (only on version bumps).
  • In the Codex sandbox, if vitest fails with EPERM writing node_modules/.vite-temp, use npx vitest run <file> --configLoader runner; host-run results remain the source of truth.

Hard conventions (CI-gated — violating these red-fails tests)

  • Command mirror: every commands/<name>.md (codex-flow.md, brainstorm.md) has a byte-identical mirror at .claude/commands/<name>.md. Every edit to one must be cp-copied to the other. Gates: scripts/check-command-sync.mjs (SYNC_PAIRS) + tests/flowDocs.test.ts.
  • Skill files: skills/<name>/SKILL.md. Frontmatter is exactly two unquoted fields: name: and a one-line description:. Body follows the existing skills — # <Title> (embed into Codex prompts), then ## Standards block with a fenced ``` block whose contents are what gets embedded into a Codex prompt (label line + terse - Key: value bullets). Match skills/exec-deliverable/SKILL.md.
  • Skill reachability: every codex-flow:<token> referenced in commands/codex-flow.md must resolve to an existing skills/<token>/SKILL.md (tests/flowDocs.test.ts). Add the token and the SKILL.md together. Skill tokens named in the command must sit inside a **Load skills first...**: line to be recognized.
  • Release consistency: on a version bump, the version must agree across package.json, package-lock.json (2 spots), server.json (2 spots), .claude-plugin/plugin.json, the .mcp.json npx pin, and a ## [<version>] heading in CHANGELOG.md.

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.
