Repository instructions for gopher-ai, a Go development toolkit distributed as plugins for Claude Code and Codex. It includes tools for Go development, issue-to-pull-request workflows, web projects using Templ and HTMX, Tailwind CSS, and second opinions from other language models.

In plain words
What is it for?
Starting and completing issue-based Go work, creating pull requests, profiling Go code, scaffolding Templ and HTMX web projects, applying Tailwind CSS guidance, validating skills, and requesting second opinions.
Why use it?
A toolkit with many plugins can be difficult for an agent to navigate consistently. These instructions explain which plugin handles each kind of work and how to invoke workflow skills.

Written for Claude Code and Codex and OpenCode: SessionStart hook event, but also the file is AGENTS.md. Also seen: mentions .claude-plugin; mentions Claude Code; reads ~/.codex paths.

This is gopherguides/gopher-ai's own configuration. It tells Claude Code, Codex and OpenCode how to work on gopher-ai 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 gopher-ai 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

gopher-ai AGENTS.md scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 1mo 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.

Makes network callslowCapability

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

For Codex, "global" means installing plugins through the Codex marketplace cache so they load in every Codex session, regardless of the working directory. This is what `install-all.sh` uses for the curl one-liner.

Project Overview

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.
