guided-coding AGENTS.md

Repository instructions for maintaining Guided Coding, a collection of skills for coding agents. They define where skill instructions belong, how manifests and versions are managed, and how Claude-specific files are generated.

In plain words
What is it for?
They are for authoring skills, updating manifests and versions, configuring Codex and Claude interfaces, regenerating generated files, and preparing releases.
Why use it?
They reduce duplicated or conflicting skill files and help keep the portable skills, generated marketplace files, and version information consistent.

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.

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

guided-coding 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 yesterday.

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

Repository Instructions

This repository is the canonical distribution of Guided Coding skills. The root package supports the Agent Plugins standard and generates a dedicated Claude Code marketplace adapter.

Skill authoring

  • Keep canonical skill instructions under skills/<skill-name>/SKILL.md.
  • Use only name, description, and license in SKILL.md frontmatter.
  • Keep the skill directory and frontmatter name identical.
  • State in every description that the skill runs only when explicitly requested.
  • Put Codex-specific interface and invocation policy in agents/openai.yaml.
  • Configure Claude-specific names and frontmatter in tools/GuidedCoding.ClaudeGenerator/claude-skills.json.
  • Do not edit claude-plugin/claude-skills directly. Regenerate it with dotnet run --project tools/GuidedCoding.ClaudeGenerator.
  • Do not hand-author duplicate skill bodies for individual coding-agent harnesses.
  • Keep the generated directory named claude-skills. A standard claude-plugin/skills directory is also discovered by GitHub CLI and would duplicate the portable skills during publication.

Manifests and versions

Keep the version synchronized across plugin.json, claude-plugin/.claude-plugin/plugin.json, .claude-plugin/marketplace.json, and release tags.

Use Conventional Commits messages.

Feedback loops

  • Regenerate the Claude adapter and run dotnet test after changing skills or manifests.
  • Run dotnet run --project tools/GuidedCoding.ClaudeGenerator -- --check to detect drift.
  • Run claude plugin validate . --strict when Claude Code is installed.
  • Run gh skill publish --dry-run before publishing a release.

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.
