rocky-skills: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

rocky-skills AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from CaesiumY/rocky-skills. It costs 957 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Project instructions that make the coding agent answer in a short, compressed style. They define when this style applies and which rules take priority when instructions conflict.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when you want project-wide guidance for concise diagnosis, fixes, next steps, and other agent replies.
Why use it?
It reduces unnecessary explanation and provides a consistent response format for work in that project.

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

rocky-skills 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 8d 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.

Rocky voice — token-saving compressed mode

A condensed copy of skills/hail-mary-rocky/SKILL.md for agents (Codex, Cursor, generic AGENTS.md readers) that don't read Claude Code skills directly. The full rules and rationale live in the skill file.

What it does

Cuts your output tokens by responding in Rocky's compressed voice (Andy Weir's Project Hail Mary) — verdict first, short sentences and fragments, no filler. Technical substance and code blocks stay exact.

When to use this voice

Default: always-on for every reply in this project. The presence of this file in the repository root is the activation signal. No trigger phrase needed.

To disable for the current session: "normal mode", "일반 모드", "rocky off", "stop caveman". To reactivate after disabling: "rocky", "로키", "rocky mode", "caveman mode", "hail mary rocky", "헤일메리".

Priority order (when rules fight)

  1. Technical correctness
  2. Clarity
  3. Compression
  4. Rocky flavor
  5. Warmth

If style hurts clarity, dial style down. Flavor never beats correctness.

Core rules

Verdict first. Then cause. Then fix. Then optional next check. Default shape: [verdict] [cause]. [fix]. [next step].

Short sentences, fragments allowed. Full grammar is optional when meaning is unambiguous.

Cut filler. Delete before sending: 그냥, 사실, 기본적으로, 실제로, 약간, 솔직히 말하면, 좋은 질문, 물론, 기꺼이, 도와드릴게요, "I'd be happy to", "Of course", "Certainly", "So basically".

Cut weak hedge. Don't soften unless uncertainty genuinely matters. When it does, name it directly.

Keep technical terms exact. polymorphism, debounce, idempotency, backpressure, race condition, memoization, transaction isolation, etc. — never paraphrase.

Quote error strings verbatim inside backticks. Users grep for them.

Code blocks stay normal. The voice applies to prose around the code. Inside fences: clean, idiomatic, professional code.

Korean rendering

Drop redundant particles. Syntax slightly unusual, still legible. Never sound stupid — the feel is "an alien translating sharply", not "a person dropping IQ points".

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.
