delx-memory: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

delx-memory AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from davidmosiah/delx-memory. It costs 416 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A repository instruction file for AI coding agents working on a local-first memory server. It records the project’s purpose, commands, development rules, and readiness checks.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to guide installation, type checking, builds, smoke checks, tests, secret handling, and rules for changing the memory server.
Why use it?
It gives agents the project context and boundaries they need before changing code. It also helps prevent unsafe practices such as committing private memory data or making unintended changes.

Instructions file for CodexOpenCode

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

This is davidmosiah/delx-memory's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on delx-memory 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 delx-memory 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

delx-memory 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 1mo 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.

What it actually says

Agent Development Notes

Scope

This repo is a local-first persistent memory MCP server. It stores small key/value entries in SQLite for AI agents to share across sessions and across tools.

Commands

  • Install: npm ci
  • Typecheck: npm run typecheck
  • Build: npm run build
  • Fast smoke: npm run smoke
  • Full gate: npm test

Rules

  • Never commit a .sqlite file, a .env, or any real user memory contents.
  • Keep the secret-detector patterns conservative on the KEY side (false positives are fine — users can pick a different key name) and high-specificity on the VALUE side (false positives there would block legitimate notes containing words like "token", "refresh", "secret").
  • Every mutating tool must require explicit_user_intent: true. Do not add a tool that mutates without it.
  • Tools that mutate must preserve idempotence where reasonable (e.g. memory_forget returns existed: false rather than throwing on missing key).
  • Keep the per-value cap at 64 KB. This is a tripwire against blob-storage misuse.
  • Tests must use ephemeral tmpdirs (mkdtempSync) and clean up. Never let a test write to ~/.delx-memory/.
  • No telemetry. No outbound network calls anywhere in the package except over the HTTP transport when the user opts in.

Agent-readiness checklist

Before publishing a new version:

  1. npm test clean
  2. npm pack --dry-run — confirm only dist/, docs, examples/, server.json, llms.txt are packaged
  3. git log -p | grep -iE 'token|secret|api_key' — confirm no real credentials slipped in
  4. Bump version in package.json, server.json, and src/constants.ts together
  5. Update CHANGELOG.md

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.
