finai-research: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

finai-research AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from csmar432/finai-research. It costs 2,870 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A project instruction file for coding assistants such as Codex, GitHub Copilot, and Claude Code. It explains how to install and configure a financial and economics research workflow that turns a topic into a LaTeX paper draft.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to orient an assistant in the project, install the workflow, configure a language-model key, and begin finance or economics research.
Why use it?
It gives different coding assistants one shared entry point and quick-start instructions. It also describes the project's research stages and available sources and templates.

Instructions file for CodexOpenCode

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

This is csmar432/finai-research's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on finai-research 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 finai-research 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

finai-research 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 3d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 220 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

AGENTS.md — Codex / Copilot / Claude Code entry point

Purpose: This is the canonical agent entry point for tools that read AGENTS.md (OpenAI Codex, GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, Lovable, etc.). It is equivalent to CLAUDE.md (Claude Code legacy) and .cursor/rules/system-init.mdc (Cursor IDE).

Size budget: keep under 32 KiB (Codex's project_doc_max_bytes). Defer deep reference to other files.


Project: 论文-研报工作流 · FinResearch Agent

One-liner: Describe your research topic → receive submission-ready LaTeX draft.

A finance & economics AI research workflow that automates the 8-stage research pipeline (idea → lit review → novelty → design → data → analysis → draft → review) with 43 MCP data sources, 58 econometric method modules, 30 journal templates, and 18 AI skills.

Quick Start (3 commands)

# 1. Install (one of:)
pip install -e ".[extras]"           # from source (recommended)
pip install 'finai-research-workflow[extras]'  # from PyPI

# 2. Configure LLM (DeepSeek is free for Chinese use)
cp .env.example .env.local
# Edit .env.local: set DEEPSEEK_API_KEY=sk-...

# 3. Run (pick one path)
# 3a. Clarify first (recommended for new topics; does not auto-run writing)
python scripts/start_research.py --topic "Carbon trading and green innovation"
# optional: python scripts/start_research.py --topic "..." --continue --use-hitl

# 3b. Direct writing pipeline
python scripts/agent_pipeline.py --topic "Carbon trading and green innovation" --use-hitl

# 3c. Agent-host / isolation slot (non-interactive, no Mock, fail-closed)
#    Writes output/SKIPPED_CONFIG.md + output/FINAL.md when blocked (e.g. no LLM).
#    Do NOT invent a parallel pipeline outside FinAI when this exits non-zero.
python scripts/agent_host_entry.py --topic "Carbon trading and green innovation"
# or: place TOPIC.md in cwd, then: python scripts/agent_host_entry.py

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.
