nginx-markdown-for-agents AGENTS.md

nginx-markdown-for-agents AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from cnkang/nginx-markdown-for-agents. It costs 17,333 tokens per session, scanned A, original, BSD-2-Clause.

Repository instructions for maintaining an NGINX project, where NGINX is software commonly used as a web server and reverse proxy.

In plain words
What is it for?
They help agents choose the right repository guidance, follow the NGINX baseline, and use the documented harness and validation files.
Why use it?
They give coding agents a priority order and fixed engineering rules intended to prevent regressions, or newly reintroduced bugs.

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

nginx-markdown-for-agents 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 5d 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.md

Purpose

This file defines repository-specific engineering rules for AI agents working on nginx-markdown-for-agents.

The rules come from two sources:

  • NGINX official development constraints in the Kiro local development guide (when present)
  • Historical fix/doc and hidden-fix commits across local branches and remote-only commits (deduplicated by commit SHA)

Goal: prevent repeated classes of mistakes that previously caused regressions.

Rule Priority

  1. Kiro local development guide, when present (highest priority)
  2. This AGENTS.md (non-negotiable baseline + rules)
  3. Task-specific user instructions

Hard safety and engineering invariants (NGINX Baseline, Rules) from Kiro and this file take precedence when conflicts exist with user-task instructions. For task scope and implementation intent, user-task has priority over generic harness workflow guidance. See docs/harness/routing-manifest.json spec_resolver for the structured priority chain.

Harness Map

  • AGENTS.md remains the Codex-first contract and engineering rule map.
  • AGENTS.md and docs/harness/ are the owning harness truth surfaces for tracked repository behavior; Make/CI/checkers must consume these, not local adapter-only summaries.
  • docs/harness/README.md is the repo-owned harness entrypoint.
  • docs/harness/core.md defines the execution loop, conflict protocol, and status semantics.
  • docs/harness/routing-manifest.json is the canonical structured routing source; docs/harness/routing-manifest.md is the readable overlay.
  • docs/harness/rules/ contains detailed error-prevention rules grouped by domain; AGENTS.md provides the index.
  • Optional local spec inputs are read-only for local spec-oriented work. Do not write harness caches, annotations, or durable repo truth into local adapter surfaces.
  • Optional local steering adapters should point back to docs/harness/ and must not define stronger semantics than this file.
  • Outside voice and the user-local harness state carrier are advisory execution tools. They may challenge or inform the current path, but they do not weaken the repo-owned correctness and safety contract.

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.
