search-box AGENTS.md

search-box AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from Aphelion-Development/search-box. It costs 1,135 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Repository instructions for working on the search-box project, including its Tero code index and a separate development agent tool.

In plain words
What is it for?
Searching the project through its indexed files, using the cabal-devmelopner tool with context, following the project’s branch and pull-request process, and running its checks.
Why use it?
They tell coding agents where to look for information, which tools to use, and how to run local checks before proposing changes.

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

search-box 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 89 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Use Tero + cabal-devmelopner for work here.

Tero (Layer-1 corpus index)

Repo has docs/tero-index/index.json (generated/ refreshed via tero-mcp/scripts/generate_lite_index.py).

Rule: Use tero queries before large greps or assumptions.

  • Grok: tero__text_search / query_by_id (token "local-dev")
  • Direct: tero-mcp-lite --index docs/tero-index/index.json
  • cabal-devmelopner: auto-detects local index when run from within this tree (or set TERO_INDEX_PATH).

Example:

cd /root/git/search-box
# agent with context:
uv run --project ../cabal-devmelopner cabal-devmelopner "task description here" --use-tero

Citations point at file:line — open them.

Working with cabal-devmelopner agent tool

This project is prepared for integration:

  • Tero index committed on chore/tero-index-cabal-ready (and PRable to dev)
  • Local auto index support in cabal
  • This AGENTS.md

PR flow (protect main/dev):

  • Create/checkout feature or chore branch
  • Make changes (agent will often use working branch)
  • PR the branch → dev (then dev → main when ready)

Local checks

Look for:

  • scripts/check.sh
  • Cargo.toml / pyproject.toml + standard commands (cargo test, uv run pytest, ruff, etc.)

Run checks before considering work complete.

Further reading

  • README.md
  • docs/ROADMAP.md or ROADMAP.md (if present)
  • docs/ASSESSMENT.md or similar for intent/gaps
  • ../cabal-devmelopner/docs/* for agent architecture
  • ../tero-mcp for how indexes are built and served

Leave mycelium isolated; all coordination here targets the other repos + cabal.

Hygiene + tero land status (2026-07-09)

  • Task: Land chore/tero + hygiene for search-box (per plan.md priority 1).
  • Tero-first: used /root/git/scripts/tero.sh search-box ... (identify, text_search, etc) before edits/assumptions.
  • Read plan.md + models (ROADMAP, ASSESSMENT, LOCAL_CHECKS, update-tero.sh, check.sh, etc).
  • Checkout dev; merge --no-ff chore/tero-index-cabal-ready; push.
  • ./scripts/check.sh : 31 tests passed, green.
  • update-tero.sh search-box; committed tero refresh (MANIFEST + prior).
  • Merged to main --no-ff; propagated (dev <-> main --no-ff, pushed).
  • Appended this status (append-only).
  • Verified: branches synced (origin/dev, origin/main current), checks green, tero queries resolve (see docs/tero-index).
  • Citations from tero used to open AGENTS:24, ROADMAP:1 etc.
  • Note: now tero index + check/AGENTS/LOCAL_CHECKS on main/dev (was only on chore).

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.
