Orienting Gemini CLI agents before they inspect, change, build, or test the fak codebase.
Why use it?
It tells automated contributors where the authoritative project guidance lives and what kind of repository fak is.

Instructions file for Gemini CLI

Written for Gemini CLI: the file is GEMINI.md. Also seen: mentions AGENTS.md; mentions Gemini CLI.

This is anthony-chaudhary/fak's own configuration. It tells Gemini CLI how to work on fak 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 fak 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

fak GEMINI.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 today.

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 — 48 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Gemini CLI context — fak

Not the human contributor guide. This file is operating instructions for automated contributors working inside the maintainers' shared checkout. Humans want README.md for what fak is and CONTRIBUTING.md for how to contribute; nothing on this page applies to you.

The canonical agent instructions for this repo are in AGENTS.md — read it first for build/test/run, the repo map, and the rules. Curated doc map: llms.txt. Contributor contract: CONTRIBUTING.md.

This repo is fak, an agent kernel: one Go binary that sits between an AI agent and the tools it calls and adjudicates every call before it runs — deny by structure, repair malformed calls, quarantine poisoned results. Its MCP server is wired in .mcp.json.

Must-know rules (enforced below the agent layer):

  • Delegate substantive work and keep the coordinator context clean — use guarded headless agents or equivalent isolated workers for investigation, implementation, tests, and review. Keep only decisions and compact witnessed evidence in the primary context; independently verify worker effects before landing or reporting them. Direct work is for lightweight coordination and truly trivial tasks. See AGENTS.md.
  • Work directly on the trunk (main); never open a feature branch or worktree — the trunk guard refuses off-trunk commits (OFF_TRUNK). The one sanctioned exception: a detached per-worker worktree that lands on main via fak worktree worker prepare|land|reap (build isolation, #1334) — detached and lane-serialized, it is not a branch and never trips OFF_TRUNK. Feature branches and off-trunk commits stay forbidden.
  • Commit by explicit path (git commit -- <paths>, never git add -A); sign off with git commit -s (DCO).
  • The Go module is the repository root — run go commands from the clone root (go install github.com/anthony-chaudhary/fak/cmd/fak@latest resolves directly).

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.
