A repository-specific instruction file for a TypeScript project called grok-build-showcase. It describes coding style, architecture, error handling, build checks, tests, and Git practices for coding agents.

In plain words
What is it for?

Why use it?
Agents otherwise may make changes that conflict with the project’s language rules, module format, structure, or required verification steps.

Instructions file for CodexOpenCode

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

This is cobusgreyling/grok-build-showcase's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on grok-build-showcase 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 grok-build-showcase 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

grok-build-showcase 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.

AGENTS.md — Grok Build Rules for grok-build-showcase

This file encodes project-specific instructions for Grok (and compatible agents). It is automatically discovered and appended to the system prompt when working in this repository (or any subdirectory).

Purpose: Make every Grok Build session in this repo maximally productive, safe, and consistent with the showcase's own best practices.


Coding Standards

  • Language: TypeScript (strict mode). All new code must be .ts.
  • Module system: ESM only ("type": "module" in package.json). Use import / export.
  • Style:
    • Prefer const, use let only when reassignment is required.
    • Use functional patterns and pure functions in core/.
    • Command handlers in commands/ should be thin (parse args → call core → report).
    • 100 character line length soft limit.
    • Meaningful names. Avoid abbreviations except well-known ones (e.g. cli, fs).
  • Error handling: Validate at system boundaries (CLI input, file reads, external data). Fail fast with clear messages.
  • No any: Use unknown + type guards or proper interfaces.

Build, Test & Verification

Mandatory before claiming work complete (on any non-trivial change):

  1. npm run typecheck
  2. npm test
  3. Manual smoke test of the affected command(s) (npm run dev -- <command> ...)

For complex or risky work:

  • Use the check skill (/check or by following its verifier subagent pattern) or manually spawn a verification subagent.
  • Re-run the full test suite after fixes.
  • A broken build or failing tests = automatic FAIL. Fix before proceeding.

Test guidelines:

  • Place tests in tests/.
  • Use real fixtures under tests/fixtures/ (good-project vs minimal-project) rather than heavy mocking.
  • Cover core logic (auditor, skill-parser, ignore handling) thoroughly.
  • CLI integration can be lighter (focus on happy + error paths).

Git & Version Control

  • Branch names: feature/, fix/, chore/, docs/ prefixes preferred.
  • Commit messages: conventional commits style (feat:, fix:, docs:, chore:, refactor:).
  • Never commit directly to main. Use branches + PRs for anything non-trivial.
  • Keep commits focused and atomic. Update tests/docs in the same commit when behavior changes.
  • Run verification steps locally before pushing.

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.
