ESAA-Core: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

ESAA-Core AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from elzobrito/ESAA-Core. It costs 1,058 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A Portuguese-language operating guide for ESAA-Core, a governance protocol and command-line tool for coordinating coding-agent work. It explains the runner, the event store, canonical roadmap files, and rules for concurrent work.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to configure or check the ESAA runner, verify a workspace, inspect eligible work, view roadmap status, and follow the required event-store and agent-contract rules.
Why use it?
It prevents agents from editing derived project records directly or bypassing the process that records and coordinates changes.

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

This is elzobrito/ESAA-Core's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on ESAA-Core 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 ESAA-Core 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

ESAA-Core 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 2mo 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

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 77 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

AGENTS.md — ESAA

O ESAA não usa MCP. Use python -m esaa, com --root apontando para este workspace. O pacote Python é esaa-core; o módulo é esaa.

Autoridade e contexto

O Orchestrator é o único escritor do event store e dos efeitos finais. AGENT_CONTRACT, ORCHESTRATOR_CONTRACT, schema do agente e RUNTIME_POLICY definem as regras aplicáveis. Não edite diretamente .roadmap/activity.jsonl nem suas projeções (roadmap.json, issues.json, lessons.json, project_profile.json).

Para trabalhar numa tarefa, obtenha python -m esaa dispatch-context TASK-ID. Use eligible para descobrir tarefas disponíveis e state TASK-ID para estado. Leia somente as referências necessárias à tarefa; padrões de leitura autorizada não são uma exigência de varrer o repositório. O contexto contém referências a artefatos; recupere seu conteúdo quando necessário dentro dos limites autorizados. Os perfis PARCER em .roadmap/ são orientação por papel, carregada sob demanda.

Trabalho e conclusão

Consultas e diagnósticos são somente leitura: não emita transições nem file_updates. Relate o resultado e as limitações relevantes.

Na execução governada, claim e complete são submissões separadas. Cada envelope contém uma activity_event e prior_status coerente. JSON puro é obrigatório no envelope submetido ao Orchestrator, não nas mensagens de conversa. O actor que reivindicou completa; file_updates só acompanha complete. A revisão segue o papel autorizado e a política ativa. done é terminal: problemas exigem issue.report e o fluxo de hotfix, sem reabrir a tarefa original.

Investigue contexto recuperável e resolva escolhas locais reversíveis dentro do escopo autorizado sem pedir aprovação a cada passo. Prepare e valide candidatos em ambiente permitido; os efeitos finais continuam via file_updates. Quando a tarefa incluir execução, inspeção e correção, prossiga até satisfazer os critérios de aceitação e reúna verificações reais antes de complete. Respeite os mínimos de checks do contrato; complete não é aprovação nem publicação.

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.
