codex-project-context AGENTS.md

Repository instructions that explain how to handle project-context tasks in an unfamiliar codebase. A repository is the folder containing a project's code, documentation, and configuration.

In plain words
What is it for?
They are for routing architecture, configuration, and design questions through a context-search workflow, while allowing direct work on simple or clearly scoped tasks.
Why use it?
They help an agent find the right project documents before changing code when knowledge is spread across multiple files.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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

codex-project-context 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 yesterday.

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.

What it actually says

AGENTS.md

Repo: Context MCP server source, the project-context skill distribution, and its benchmark suite.

Project-knowledge tasks — unfamiliar modules, architecture or configuration rules, design decisions spread across docs — route through the project-context skill first, so get_context_candidates narrows which docs to read before coding. Work direct when the task is self-contained: an exact file or function is given, the fix is localized, the one relevant file is known, or it is a simple command question. Follow the skill's two-stage workflow once triggered.

Changes

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.
