stata-code AGENTS.md

Project-specific instructions for working on stata-code, a Python package and VS Code extension. They cover communication, releases, package publishing, and keeping versions aligned.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when changing stata-code, preparing TestPyPI or PyPI releases, publishing the VS Code extension, or coordinating a GitHub release.
Why use it?
They reduce release mistakes by showing which files and workflows must change together. They also document how to recover from a failed trusted-publishing setup.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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

stata-code 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 2d 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.

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

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 243 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

AGENTS.md — stata-code project notes

Project-specific guidance for Codex sessions in this repo. General publishing docs live in PUBLISHING.md; this file captures what isn't obvious from reading the workflows.

Communication

写完代码后,始终用中文给出一段简短总结:做了什么、为什么、用户接下来要做什么。即使本轮对话之前是英文,代码改动结束时的总结也要用中文。

Release coordination

A unified release ships four artifacts under the same version number:

Channel Tag Workflow
TestPyPI (stata-code) vX.Y.Z publish-testpypi job in .github/workflows/release.yml
PyPI (stata-code) vX.Y.Z publish-pypi job in .github/workflows/release.yml
VS Code Marketplace (stata-code-vscode) vscode-vX.Y.Z .github/workflows/vscode-release.yml
GitHub Release vX.Y.Z tail end of release.yml

Eight version literals across six files must move together, or the release build fails at the scripts/check_versions.py gate before any publish runs:

  1. pyproject.toml[project] version
  2. stata_code/__init__.py__version__
  3. stata_code/mcp/server.py__version__
  4. vscode/package.jsonversion
  5. vscode/package-lock.json → top-level version and packages[""].version
  6. .claude-plugin/plugin.jsonversion and .claude-plugin/marketplace.jsonmetadata.version + each plugins[*].version

vscode/src/mcpClient.ts imports the extension version from vscode/package.json for the MCP handshake, so it should not carry a separate literal.

PyPI / TestPyPI Trusted Publishing — what to know

Both PyPI and TestPyPI use OIDC (no API tokens in repo secrets). They are separate sites with separate publisher configs — each must be set up independently:

Site Manage URL Environment
PyPI https://pypi.org/manage/project/stata-code/settings/publishing/ pypi
TestPyPI https://test.pypi.org/manage/project/stata-code/settings/publishing/ testpypi

Changes

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.

stata-code AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository brycewang-stanford/stata-code (41 stars, last pushed 22d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 3,120 tokens to every session, about $0.0156 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
