AGENTS.md

hivemind AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from banodoco/hivemind. It costs 1,228 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Project instructions for Hivemind, a shared knowledge collection with tools for searching, fetching, refreshing media links, and contributing information. Its data includes messages, external resources, and written summaries.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when finding knowledge by topic, fetching a specific item, refreshing media URLs, or contributing content through the Hivemind executors.
Why use it?
They explain which search and retrieval paths are reliable, including limits that affect multi-word searches and the protected path for adding information.

Instructions file for CodexOpenCode

Written for Codex and OpenCode: the file is AGENTS.md.

This is banodoco/hivemind's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on hivemind 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 hivemind configures →

Not installable: its command points at a path on the author’s own machine, so it runs nowhere else. The line is /Users/peteromalley/Documents/banodoco-workspace/hivemind.

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

hivemind 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.

Hivemind — Agent Guide

What this pack provides

Hivemind is a shared knowledge corpus with a read path (public PostgREST over message_feed, stable resources, and accepted current resource_revisions) and a locked write path (the contribute edge function). The seven executors search, fetch exact revisions, refresh media URLs, ingest, and contribute from CLI, Astrid, or a skill.

hivemind.search queries message_feed and the resources/current-revision raw relationship in parallel with per-token ILIKE predicates and ranks the merge client-side. It deliberately never queries the unified_feed UNION view for text search — that view's derived-table scan blows the anon role's 3s statement budget (HTTP 500 / SQLSTATE 57014) on any multi-word or per-token OR, and a single multi-word phrase ILIKE returns zero rows (the literal substring never occurs). Use resources + resource_revisions for exact fetches via hivemind.get_item.

When to use each executor

Executor Use when …
hivemind.search Find accepted current resources or messages by topic/keyword. Per-token raw-table matching; pending and historical revisions never rank.
hivemind.get_item Fetch a full message, current resource, or exact pinned revision with reference context.
hivemind.refresh_media You have a Discord message id and need fresh attachment URLs for expired Discord CDN media.
hivemind.contribute You want to submit/propose/review a resource revision or record exact evidence.
hivemind.ingest_article You have a URL and want to extract its text and submit it as a resource.
hivemind.ingest_workflow You have a ComfyUI workflow JSON and want to index its models and structure.
hivemind.ingest_youtube You have a YouTube URL and want to extract captions and submit a transcript resource.

Flywheel loop

  1. Search accepted current resources and messages (hivemind.search).
  2. On hit — relay the answer and exact resource/revision references.
  3. On miss — research the raw message layer, answer the human, then submit a full cited resource revision or immutable evidence record.
  4. Preserve conditions, competing methods, and source custody for the next reader.

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.
