evals: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

evals AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from callstackincubator/evals. It costs 1,309 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A practical guide for AI agents working on a benchmark of React Native coding tasks. It explains how the runner discovers tasks, generates solutions, and uses a language model to judge the results.

In plain words
What is it for?
Running evaluations, generating solution artifacts, judging completed tasks, inspecting per-task results, and reviewing summary reports.
Why use it?
It clarifies the repository’s execution process and required reasoning steps, helping agents produce results that can be evaluated consistently.

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

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

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

evals 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 2mo 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.

AGENTS Guide

This file is the practical playbook for agents working in this repo.

What this repo is

  • Purpose: benchmark how coding models solve React Native tasks.
  • Primary engine: runner/ orchestrates discovery -> solve -> LLM judge -> summary.
  • Dataset: evals under evals/<category>/<eval-id>/, typically with:
    • prompt.md
    • requirements.yaml
    • app/ (baseline input)
    • reference/ (reference output for judge context)

Mental model of execution

Benchmark execution uses two CLIs:

  1. bun runner/run.ts discovers evals and generates artifacts under the configured output directory.
  2. bun runner/judge.ts reads generated artifacts, runs LLM judging, and writes results under results/<run-id>/.

Generation details (runner/solver/pipeline.ts):

  • --model is required and is always used for generation.

Judge details (runner/evaluators/llm/run.ts):

  • --model is required and LLM judge always runs against generated artifacts.

Key output behavior:

  • Per-eval results: results/<run-id>/evals/<eval-id>.json
  • Summary: results/<run-id>/summary.json
  • --debug adds judge prompt/output artifacts.

Think-before-coding rules (required)

Apply these before implementation:

  1. State assumptions explicitly.
  2. If multiple interpretations exist, list them and ask or choose with justification.
  3. If a simpler approach works, use it and say why.
  4. If something is unclear, stop and surface the exact ambiguity.

Execution principles (default policy)

Before implementing

  • State assumptions explicitly. If uncertain, ask.
  • If multiple interpretations exist, present them; do not pick silently.
  • If a simpler approach exists, call it out and use it unless there is a clear reason not to.

Simplicity and scope control

  • Implement only what the task asks for.
  • No speculative abstractions for single-use code.
  • No drive-by refactors.
  • Match surrounding style.
  • Remove only dead code created by your own change.
  • If you notice unrelated issues, mention them but do not fix unless asked.
  • Remove imports/variables your changes made unused; do not clean pre-existing dead code unless requested.

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.
