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.
npx agentmods add instructions/doitmagic/rag-code-mcp/copilot-instructionsgit clone --depth 1 https://github.com/doITmagic/rag-code-mcpWhat 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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5 | $0.00568 | $0.00568 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00284 | $0.00284 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00114 | $0.00114 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00057 | $0.00057 |
Grade A, and why
rag-code-mcp copilot-instructions.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 2d 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

Copilot Instructions - RagCode MCP
⚖️ The Golden Rule
For any information about the code (location, structure, logic, or usage), you MUST use RagCode MCP tools. Never guess code details from memory; always search the local index first.
Project Overview
RagCode is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides semantic code search (RAG) for local codebases using Ollama (embeddings) and Qdrant (vector storage). It supports multiple languages through a pluggable analyzer architecture.
Architecture & Patterns
- Core Components:
Indexer: Orchestrates analysis, embedding, and storage.PathAnalyzer: Interface for language-specific AST analysis (Go, PHP/Laravel, Python, HTML).CodeChunk: The canonical v2 data structure for all indexed code symbols (functions, types, files).Workspace.Manager: Handles multi-workspace multi-language isolation via language-specific Qdrant collections.
- Data Flow: Tools ->
Workspace.Manager.DetectWorkspace-> Language Detection -> Qdrant Collection (ragcode-{id}-{lang}) -> Search Results. - Convention: The project is migrating from
APIChunktoCodeChunk. Always useCodeChunkfor new features.
Developer Workflows
- Build/Install: Use
go run ./cmd/install/main.goto build binaries and configure local IDEs. - Runtime Binaries: Installed to
~/.local/share/ragcode/bin/by default. - Testing: Use standard
go test ./.... Uset.TempDir()for workspace/filesystem isolation. - Logging: MCP server logs to
mcp.lognext to the executable. CheckMCP_LOG_LEVEL=debugfor issues.
MCP Tools Usage
search_code: Use as the primary entry point for exploration. Crucial: Always provide thefile_pathparameter as it's used for workspace and language detection.index_workspace: Triggered automatically on first query per workspace, but can be manually invoked for major changes.
Integration Points
- Ollama: Requires
phi3:medium(reasoning) andmxbai-embed-large(embeddings) by default. - Qdrant: Runs in Docker as
ragcode-qdranton port 6333.
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.

rag-code-mcp copilot-instructions.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository doITmagic/rag-code-mcp (53 stars, last pushed 15d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 568 tokens to every session, about $0.0028 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
