AGENTS.md

blade-code AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from echoVic/blade-code. It costs 2,055 tokens per session, scanned C, original, MIT.

Project instructions for Blade Code, an AI coding assistant built with TypeScript, React, and a command-line interface. They describe the repository layout and its development commands.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when developing, building, testing, linting, or type-checking the Blade Code project and its web interface.
Why use it?
They give an agent the project-specific context needed to make compatible changes and run the expected checks.

Instructions file for CodexOpenCode

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

This is echoVic/blade-code's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on blade-code 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 blade-code 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 C, and why

blade-code AGENTS.md scanned grade C with 1 finding 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 27d 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.

Recursive force deletehighDestructive command

rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

Key Design Principles

  1. Stateless Agent: Agent doesn't store session state; all state passed via context
  2. Tool System: Unified tool registration, execution, and validation with TypeBox schemas
  3. Permission Control: Three-level permission system (allow/ask/deny)
  4. Session Management: Multi-session support with resume and fork capabilities
  5. pi-ai Runtime: Single LLM abstraction layer; model metadata from catalog, not hardcoded

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.
