AGENTS.md

agents AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from inkeep/agents. It costs 9,414 tokens per session, scanned B, original, no licence file.

A project guide in AGENTS.md, a file that tells coding agents how to work in the inkeep/agents codebase. It covers commands, development, checks, and database tasks from the monorepo root, meaning the main folder containing multiple related projects.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when changing the inkeep/agents project, especially for setup, development, verification, or database operations.
Why use it?
It gives coding agents the project rules and commands they need instead of leaving them to guess how to build, verify, or manage the database.

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 B, and why

agents AGENTS.md scanned grade B with 2 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 7d 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.

Asks for rootmediumPrivilege escalation

A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

- Docker (Doltgres `:5432`, Postgres `:5433`, SpiceDB `:50051`, Mailpit) is preinstalled but not auto-started: `sudo dockerd &` then `sudo chmod 666 /var/run/docker.sock`. `/etc/docker/daemon.json` is preset for `fuse-ov

Makes network callslowCapability

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

The source is not reproduced here

A licence we could not identify

The repository carries a LICENSE file, but it is custom or dual enough that GitHub cannot name it and neither can this catalogue. Unknown terms are not permission, so the body is not copied here. Read the licence at the source and decide for yourself.

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.
