cad-cae-copilot: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

cad-cae-copilot AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from armpro24-blip/cad-cae-copilot. It costs 43,385 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of instructions for the aieng workbench, a tool for creating and inspecting computer-aided design and engineering geometry. It explains the approved tools, project workflow, and fallback options for agents.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps agents start work, load project guidance and context, create geometry with build123d, import STEP files, and follow the workspace's modeling workflow.
Why use it?
It prevents agents from learning the system from an outdated stub and helps them use the live workbench or the documented fallback when its tools are unavailable.

Written for Codex and OpenCode: the file is AGENTS.md. Also seen: mentions CLAUDE.md; names the AskUserQuestion tool; mentions Claude Code.

This is armpro24-blip/cad-cae-copilot's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on cad-cae-copilot 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 cad-cae-copilot configures →

Needs its repository: it reads a path above its own folder, which exists only inside the repository. The line is python agent_import_project.py ../../output/result.step \.

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

cad-cae-copilot AGENTS.md scanned grade A with 1 finding 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.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

aieng Workbench — Agent Guide

Canonical detailed guide for any AI agent (Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, OpenAI Codex, Cursor, Cline, …) working in this workspace. This is the single source of truth for detailed guidance — CLAUDE.md and .github/copilot-instructions.md point here. The MCP tool aieng.agent_readme returns a compact operational quickstart by default; aieng.guide {topic} extracts detailed sections from this file, and aieng.agent_readme {detail: "full"} returns the complete document.


STOP — read this first

Do NOT browse aieng/src/ to understand what this system can do. That is a legacy library with a FakeBackend stub that produces no real geometry.

The workbench is driven primarily through the aieng-workbench MCP server tools. If you see aieng.* / cad.* / cae.* tools in your tool list, use them — they provide live UI events, topology feedback, and incremental modeling.

If you do NOT have these MCP tools (e.g. Kimi Code CLI without MCP configuration), you are in fallback mode. You can still produce geometry by:

  1. Writing build123d scripts and running them through the provided runner script.
  2. Importing the resulting STEP file into the workbench with the provided importer script so it appears in the UI. See the Fallback mode section below for the exact commands.

If the aieng-workbench MCP server is not in your tool list, it is configured in this repo (.mcp.json for Claude Code, .vscode/mcp.json for VS Code/Copilot, see MCP_SETUP for Codex, and see Kimi Code CLI notes in the Fallback section).


First three calls every session

1. aieng.agent_readme                   → compact operational quickstart
2. aieng.list_projects                  → discover available project IDs
3. aieng.agent_context { project_id }   → geometry state, pointers, next steps

Call these before reading files or running code. aieng.agent_context gives you the current geometry state, stale-artifact warnings, and the pointer IDs you need to construct valid tool calls. Call aieng.guide {topic} only when the current task needs detailed guidance; use aieng.agent_readme {detail: "full"} only when the complete canonical guide is genuinely required.

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.
