aifed: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

aifed AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from ImitationGameLabs/aifed. It costs 639 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

An AGENTS.md guide containing project instructions for working on aifed, a Rust-based project. It describes the folders, common development tasks, testing in a scratch directory, and dependency management.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when modifying or testing ImitationGameLabs/aifed. It covers adding workspace members, using the command-line tool, testing in .playground/, and managing dependencies.
Why use it?
It gives coding agents project-specific rules and orientation instead of making them infer how the repository is organized. A scratch directory is a safe place for development experiments and manual checks.

Instructions file for CodexOpenCode

Written for Codex and OpenCode: the file is AGENTS.md. Also seen: mentions AGENTS.md.

This is ImitationGameLabs/aifed's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on aifed 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 aifed configures →

Needs its repository: it reads a path above its own folder, which exists only inside the repository. The line is ../target/debug/aifed --skill.

Borrowing it

Nothing to install: this file belongs to ImitationGameLabs/aifed. Take a copy, put it at the same path in your own repository, and replace the rules that are about this project with yours.

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

aifed 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.

Common Tasks

Testing aifed in .playground/

Use .playground/ as the general scratch workspace for testing aifed during development. This includes CLI flows, edit behavior, LSP-driven operations, and other manual verification tasks.

cd .playground
../target/debug/aifed --skill
../target/debug/aifed <command>

The .playground/ directory is in .gitignore. The CLI test walkthrough provides example test cases, but .playground/ is not limited to that guide.

Dependency Management

When adding dependencies to any crate:

  1. Add to [workspace.dependencies] in root Cargo.toml
  2. Reference in crate's Cargo.toml with workspace = true

Example:

# Root Cargo.toml
[workspace.dependencies]
serde = { version = "1.0", features = ["derive"] }

# crates/my-app/Cargo.toml
[dependencies]
serde = { workspace = true }

Verification Checklist

After modifying Nix files:

  • nixfmt <nix file> - Format single file
  • nixfmt $(find nix/ -name "*.nix") flake.nix - Format all Nix files at once
  • statix check . - Static analysis (run from project root)

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.
