dotagents: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

dotagents AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from getsentry/dotagents. It costs 1,028 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Repository instructions for dotagents, shared tooling that manages coding-agent skills, tool connections, and hooks from one configuration file. A monorepo is one repository containing multiple related packages; this project uses one for its two packages.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when installing, building, testing, listing, synchronizing, or changing agent configurations and package code.
Why use it?
They explain the package structure, supported commands, and shared configuration rules needed to change the project safely.

Instructions file for CodexOpenCode

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

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

dotagents 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 19d 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 This Project Is

dotagents is shared tooling for coding agents. It manages skills, MCP servers, and hooks declared in agents.toml, and handles symlinks and config generation so tools like Claude Code can be configured from a single source of truth.

See specs/SPEC.md for the full design.

Architecture

This repo is a pnpm workspace with two packages, versioned in lock-step (see RELEASING.md).

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.
