vardoger: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

vardoger AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from dstrupl/vardoger. It costs 1,510 tokens per session, scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

Repository-specific coding instructions for AI assistants, covering project structure, naming, coding checks, reviews, and Git workflow.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when changing code, reviewing changes, locating project files, writing prompts, or preparing commits in the vardoger repository.
Why use it?
They give an agent one shared set of rules to follow, reducing inconsistent edits and missed repository conventions.

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 dstrupl/vardoger's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on vardoger 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 vardoger 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

vardoger 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.

Before You Code

  • Find the module boundary: locate the nearest pyproject.toml and treat it as the unit of build, test, and dependency rules.
  • Preserve layering: shared core lives in src/vardoger/, platform-specific code in plugins/<platform>/. Don't mix them.
  • Prefer configuration over ad-hoc constants: use a config class and env vars rather than scattering os.getenv calls.
  • Avoid duplication: if you see near-identical blocks, centralize them.

Code Review Priorities

These are the patterns reviewers consistently flag:

  • Module boundaries & dependency direction
    • Shared types belong in src/vardoger/, not inside a plugin.
    • Plugin modules should not import from other plugins; dependencies flow inward to the shared core.

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.
