growmos: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

growmos AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from codician-team/growmos. It costs 606 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Repository instructions for growmos, a tool that keeps a shared knowledge graph as project memory in the .growmos/ folder. The graph records things such as entities, relationships, sources, profiles, and journal entries.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to load a project brief, investigate dependencies or past decisions, and save facts, ownership details, architectural choices, and lessons learned.
Why use it?
It helps coding agents retain important project knowledge between sessions and context limits. It also gives them a consistent way to look up decisions and record new durable information.

Instructions file for CodexOpenCode

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

This is codician-team/growmos's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on growmos 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 growmos 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

growmos 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

growmos — living knowledge graph (shared memory for humans + agents)

This repository keeps a knowledge graph in .growmos/ (entities, typed relations, provenance, profiles, a journal). It is the shared world model that survives context windows. Treat it as memory you read at the start of work and write to as you develop. Zero-config commands:

  1. Session start — run growmos context (a compact brief: hubs, health, pending work, latest journal). If it lists pending work, run the growmos next → apply loop (step 4) right away, without being asked — it is quick, needs no permission, and is how the graph stays alive.
  2. Before cross-cutting questions ("what depends on X?", "why was Y decided?") — run growmos query "<question>"; answer from the returned subgraph and cite edge ids.
  3. When you learn or decide something durable (new component, architectural decision, ownership, dependency, gotcha) — write it back immediately:
    • growmos remember "<Name>" --type <TYPE> --desc "<one grounded sentence>"
    • growmos link "<A>" "<predicate>" "<B>" (short verb phrase predicates: "depends on", "replaces")
    • growmos journal "<what changed and why>"
  4. Feed the organism — run growmos next. It hands you a task packet (extraction / resolution / profile / gold set / review) with the exact prompt, the JSON shape, and the growmos apply … command. Do the judgment work yourself, write the JSON, apply it. Repeat until growmos next says the graph is up to date — that loop covers everything, including the evaluation gold set and the periodic node review. If it reports the daily extraction cap, run growmos next --force (the cap only guards unattended runs). Never invent facts not in the source; every relation must connect two extracted entities.
  5. Before claiming facts about the repo in a summary/report — growmos check "<claim text>" grounds your claims against edges with provenance (evaluator–optimizer loop).
  6. Session end — growmos journal "<summary of the session>" so the next session picks up here.

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.
