ran: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

ran AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from chaxus/ran. It costs 695 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Project instructions for the `ran` user-interface library. They direct an agent to the right design, interaction, workflow, documentation, and engineering references for each task.

In plain words
What is it for?
They help with UI design decisions, component behavior, accessibility-related interaction details, documentation, themes, and implementation work in the library.
Why use it?
They prevent agents from applying unrelated guidance or creating duplicate design rules. They also identify which files own visual tokens, component APIs, and public documentation.

Instructions file for CodexOpenCode

Written for Codex and OpenCode: the file is AGENTS.md. Also seen: mentions CLAUDE.md.

This is chaxus/ran's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on ran 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 ran 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

ran 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 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.

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.

Working in ran

Start with the owner of the change; do not load every reference or introduce a second standard.

Work Read first
Visual hierarchy, composition, tokens and craft ranui design standard
Input, focus, drafts, feedback and recovery interaction standard
Optional batch/queue, settings, account/data or revision workflow workflow patterns, only when relevant
Unsure which reference owns a decision Short interface index
Component state, events, lifecycle or SSR engineering standard, then implementation reference
Exact attributes, events, slots, parts or theme variables Generated component API and public tokens; verify against source
Public documentation or localized prose documentation site reference
Repository landing/demo identity root DESIGN.md, scoped to that surface

packages/ranui/theme/tokens.less and packages/ranui/theme/dark.less own foundation tokens. Product semantic aliases may derive from them; do not create a parallel palette or copy one application's dimensions into library defaults. The index routes decisions; workflow recipes describe host responsibilities, not extra ranui APIs.

For visual changes, use the UI task lookup to find exact owner sections and an evidence brief. Read only applicable owner sections; reuse existing controls and local token mappings. Stop when the contract, smallest patch and evidence are clear. Optional recipes do not require new infrastructure.

Run affected-package checks appropriate to the change and report evidence, not assumptions. The local scope below does not weaken the complete repository CI gates:

  • Documentation: pnpm verify:links, pnpm verify:docs, and changed-file Prettier checks.
  • Localized documentation: pnpm -F docs check:langs checks labels, mirrored page structure and copy coverage.
  • Design: pnpm -F ranui verify:design for ranui changes (or the affected package's existing gate); root CI runs pnpm verify:design across its configured packages. Static gates do not prove layout or keyboard behaviour.
  • Guide/token/package examples: pnpm -F ranui exec vitest run test/unit/docs.interface-guidance.test.ts.
  • Library behaviour: follow CODING's verification checklist, including relevant unit, integration, SSR and real-browser checks. Regenerate API/token docs from source.

Public ranui guidance has English and Chinese entry points under packages/docs/src/ranui/ and packages/docs/cn/src/ranui/. Link to canonical owners instead of duplicating long rules.

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.
