superpowers-reasonix: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

superpowers-reasonix AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from christopherarter/superpowers-reasonix. It costs 791 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Project instructions that require loading the relevant skill guide before doing non-trivial work. They cover choosing guides for brainstorming, debugging, coding, planning, executing plans, verification, and finishing development tasks.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them to decide which project skill to load for a feature, bug, code change, written plan, plan execution, or completion check.
Why use it?
They provide a consistent process for selecting the right guidance before acting and for checking work before declaring it complete.

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

superpowers-reasonix 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 25d 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.

Project guidance

Skills — STOP. Load a skill before you act.

This project ships skills (playbooks) under skills/. They only work if you load them.

The rule: before you do ANYTHING non-trivial — before you explore, run bash, write code, or answer — STOP and check the skills index. If a skill might fit, load it. Loading a skill is cheap. Skipping it is the #1 mistake. Process skill FIRST. Action SECOND.

Do NOT jump straight to explore or bash or a direct answer. The skill tells you HOW to explore, debug, build, and verify. So it comes first, every time.

Match the situation:

If… Load this FIRST
starting a feature, or you have a rough idea superpowers-brainstorming
investigating why a past or current Reasonix session was slow, repetitive, or skipped a skill superpowers-diagnosing-superpowers
a bug, a failing or flaky test, or anything surprising superpowers-systematic-debugging
writing or fixing any code superpowers-test-driven-development
you have a spec for a multi-step task superpowers-writing-plans
executing a written plan in this session superpowers-executing-plans
about to say "done" / "fixed" / "passing" superpowers-verification-before-completion
work is done and tests pass superpowers-finishing-a-development-branch
you got code-review feedback (from review or a human) superpowers-receiving-code-review
need an isolated workspace superpowers-using-git-worktrees
making or editing a skill superpowers-writing-skills

Load it: run_skill({ name: "<skill-name>", arguments: "<the task>" }).

These skills supplement Reasonix's native tools — they don't replace them. For dispatching subagents, code review, parallel work, and codebase exploration, use the native tools directly: task (run a subagent), review (code-review a diff), wait (join parallel jobs), explore (investigate the codebase). There is no skill for these — reach for the native tool.

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.
