Written for Codex and OpenCode: the file is AGENTS.md. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions CLAUDE.md; mentions Claude Code.

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

ga 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 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.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 207 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

AGENTS.md

Guitar Alchemist — .NET 10 / C# 14 + F# DSL + React frontend, Aspire orchestrated.

Note: AGENTS.md is auto-synced from this file by Scripts/sync-agents-md.ps1 (also called from .githooks/pre-commit). Source of truth is CLAUDE.md. This file is auto-generated — do not edit directly.

Build, test, verify

dotnet build AllProjects.slnx -c Debug                    # full build
dotnet test  AllProjects.slnx                             # full suite
pwsh Scripts/start-all.ps1 -Dashboard                     # start all services via Aspire
pwsh Scripts/start-all.ps1 -NoBuild -Dashboard            # daily dev restart (skip build)
pwsh Scripts/run-all-tests.ps1 -BackendOnly -SkipBuild    # backend-only suite (faster)
dotnet test --filter "FullyQualifiedName~<name>"           # single test

Verify before claiming success. dotnet build AllProjects.slnx -c Debug and dotnet test AllProjects.slnx must pass. Frontend: npm run build && npm run lint in ReactComponents/ga-react-components.

Architecture

Strict bottom-up five-layer model:

  1. Core — GA.Core, GA.Domain.Core (pure primitives: Note, Interval, Fretboard)
  2. Domain — GA.Business.Core, GA.Business.Config, GA.BSP.Core (logic, YAML, BSP)
  3. Analysis — GA.Domain.Services (chord/scale analysis, voicing generation and analysis, voice leading, spectral)
  4. AI/ML — GA.Business.ML (embeddings, vector search, RAG, OPTIC-K schema)
  5. Orchestration — GA.Business.Core.Orchestration, GA.Business.Assets, GA.Business.Intelligence

Rule: AI code in layer 4 (GA.Business.ML). Orchestration in layer 5. Never in lower layers. Full layer map + conventions: docs/architecture/layers.md.

Apps live in Apps/: ga-server/GaApi (ASP.NET + SignalR + GraphQL), GaChatbot, ga-client (React + R3F), GaMusicTheoryLsp (F#), AllProjects.AppHost (Aspire).

Conventions

  • C# 14 / .NET 10: <Nullable>enable</Nullable>, file-scoped namespaces with using inside, record for DTOs, primary constructors, [] collection expressions, System.Threading.Lock, zero-warnings policy.
  • Railway-Oriented Programming: Services return Result<T,E> / Try<T> / Validation<T> / Option<T> from GA.Core.Functional. throw only at system boundaries.
  • F# (GA.Business.DSL, GA.Business.Config): 4-space indent, [<CLIMutable>] on YAML records, PascalCase YAML keys, hardcoded fallback if YAML missing.
  • Frontend: React 18, TypeScript strict, MUI v5 (sx prop only), R3F (no state in useFrame), no any.

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.
