pingshu-skill: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

pingshu-skill AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from FerryCorleone/pingshu-skill. It costs 389 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Repository instructions for a portable agent skill that turns sourced stories into respectful Chinese pingshu-style scripts and text-to-speech performance plans. Pingshu is a traditional Chinese spoken storytelling performance, and text-to-speech means generating spoken audio from text.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when editing the skill, preparing story packs and scripts, creating performance plans, checking sources, or running development work without platform-specific dependencies.
Why use it?
They help contributors preserve the tradition, cite source material, avoid copying a living artist's voice, and keep the skill usable across systems. They also require structured intermediate files and honest handling of uncertain facts.

Written for Codex and OpenCode: reads $CODEX_HOME, but also the file is AGENTS.md. Also seen: mentions AGENTS.md; mentions Codex.

This is FerryCorleone/pingshu-skill's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on pingshu-skill 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 pingshu-skill 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

pingshu-skill 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.

Project Intent

This repository builds pingshu-skill, a portable Agent Skill that turns sourced story material into respectful Chinese pingshu-style scripts and provider-neutral TTS performance plans.

The goal is not to parody or replace traditional pingshu artists. Treat pingshu as a living performance tradition: preserve respect for its craft, cite sources, avoid voice impersonation, and make modern adaptations clearly transformative.

Working Rules

  • Keep the skill usable by different agents and operating systems. Prefer plain Markdown, JSON, and Node.js scripts without native dependencies.
  • Do not require macOS-only tools, shell-specific behavior, or browser automation for the core workflow.
  • Keep pingshu-skill/SKILL.md concise. Put detailed knowledge in pingshu-skill/references/.
  • Use structured intermediate artifacts:
    • story_pack.json
    • pingshu_script.json
    • performance_plan.json
  • Do not let the skill fabricate source facts when the user asks for an existing work, episode, event, or scene. If sources are weak, mark uncertainty and ask for or gather better material.
  • Do not clone, imitate, or suggest imitating a real living artist's voice without explicit permission. Use original character voices or properly licensed voices.
  • Do not directly rewrite another creator's recap as if it were raw story fact. Use recaps as leads only, then corroborate or cite them.

Development Checks

Run these before claiming the skill is ready:

python3 "${CODEX_HOME:-$HOME/.codex}/skills/.system/skill-creator/scripts/quick_validate.py" pingshu-skill
node pingshu-skill/scripts/validate_skill_outputs.mjs examples
git status --short

If Node is unavailable, the Markdown skill remains usable, but the bundled scripts have not been verified.

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.
