chisel: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

chisel AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from EYamanS/chisel. It costs 399 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of contributor instructions for Chisel, a server that lets AI agents create, edit, render, and export 3D models.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when working on Chisel’s 3D scene graph, modeling operations, rendering, file export, MCP server, or browser playground.
Why use it?
It gives developers the project’s file locations, conventions, and commands so changes fit the existing code and model behavior.

Instructions file for CodexOpenCode

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

This is EYamanS/chisel's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on chisel 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 chisel 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

chisel 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.

What it actually says

Chisel — contributor guide

Chisel is an MCP server (plus an optional Next.js web playground) that lets AI agents build, edit, render, and export 3D models from primitives and boolean CSG.

Where things live

  • src/lib/scene/ — the scene graph (types.ts), the deterministic op reducer (operations.ts), and the shared modeling tool schemas (tools.ts).
  • src/lib/three/build.ts — turns the scene graph into Three.js meshes, evaluating CSG booleans with three-bvh-csg. Pure CPU; no GPU needed.
  • src/lib/render/ — the headless software rasterizer (raster.ts), glTF/OBJ export (export.ts), a zero-dependency PNG encoder (png.ts), and a bitmap label font.
  • src/mcp/ — the MCP server (server.ts) and its in-memory session store (engine.ts).
  • src/lib/agent/, src/components/, src/app/ — the browser playground (WebGL viewport
    • OpenAI-driven agent loop).

Conventions

  • Geometry is Y-up, right-handed. Rotations are stored in degrees.
  • The renderer and exporters must stay headless (no window, no WebGL) — they run in Node for the MCP server.
  • The same src/lib/scene/tools.ts schemas feed both the MCP server and the web agent; keep them in sync.

Commands

  • npm run mcp — run the MCP server from source (tsx).
  • npm run build:mcp — bundle the standalone binary to dist/server.js.
  • npm run dev — web playground at http://localhost:3000.
  • npx tsc --noEmit — typecheck the whole project.
Changes

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.
