avalonia-extensions: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

avalonia-extensions AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from Devolutions/avalonia-extensions. It costs 1,222 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A repository guide for coding agents working on Avalonia Extensions, a .NET UI extension project. It includes a required session check and points to more complete instructions in the .claude directory.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it at the start of a coding session, especially before running project commands or tests. It covers worktree setup, development guidance, custom commands, and visual testing for SampleApp.
Why use it?
It helps agents load local configuration before working and avoid missing personal tools or editor settings. It also identifies the main documents for architecture, testing, security, releases, and version control.

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

This is Devolutions/avalonia-extensions's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on avalonia-extensions 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 avalonia-extensions 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

avalonia-extensions 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 20d 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.

AI Assistant Guidelines

⚠️ REQUIRED: Session Pre-flight Check

Before starting any task, run this check:

ls .claude/local/

If the output contains only README.md (no other files), or if .vscode/ is missing, you must run the worktree setup script before doing anything else:

bash scripts/setup-worktree.sh

On Windows: pwsh scripts/setup-worktree.ps1

This copies gitignored local config (personal commands, .vscode/ settings) from the main worktree. Skipping it means you'll be missing developer-specific tooling and commands for this session.


Development baseline initialization

At the start of every new agent session, after local configuration setup and before implementation, always ask once whether the user wants a full clean development baseline set, including for non-visual tasks. Do not repeat the question within the same session.

If approved, run ./devtest visual --initialize-local-baselines on the clean starting revision. This captures non-native personal images without comparisons or WinUI identity checks, and never writes tracked images. If the command warns that LocalBaselines is non-empty, surface the overwrite confirmation through the user-question tool. Never automatically answer or pipe y unless the user explicitly approves overwriting the existing set. Never initialize from already modified code without explicit user approval; use a separate ordinary test run to check native images and regressions. Do not copy personal baselines automatically between worktrees.

Note: This file has been superseded by more comprehensive documentation in the .claude/ directory.

.claude/CLAUDE.md - Main documentation covering:

  • Repository overview and structure
  • Development commands and workflows
  • Architecture and design patterns
  • Coding rules and best practices
  • Version control guidelines
  • Custom commands (/worksetup, /commit, /explain, /simplify)
  • SampleApp + visual regression test workflow (see README.md Testing section)

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.
