local-token-saver: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

local-token-saver AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from itsarmaanverma/local-token-saver. It costs 373 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Repository instructions for a project that uses agent-mesh to coordinate work between coding agents. They define how to resume tasks, inspect progress, edit files, and verify changes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when working in the local-token-saver repository, especially to resume an assigned task, check its scope, run required verification, and hand it off.
Why use it?
They keep agents working on one checklist item at a time and passing work between sessions without losing context. They also set testing and benchmark requirements before a task is marked complete.

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

This is itsarmaanverma/local-token-saver's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on local-token-saver 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 local-token-saver 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

local-token-saver 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 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.

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 it actually says

Codex Continuation Instructions

This repository uses agent-mesh for sequential continuity between Codex and Claude. Work on exactly one checklist task at a time.

Start every session

  1. Set MESH_PLATFORM=codex.
  2. Run python C:/Users/armaa/agent-mesh/mesh.py resume --platform codex.
  3. Read docs/PHASE_PROGRESS.md and the newest .agent-mesh/handoff.md block addressed to codex or any.
  4. Run git status --short --branch and inspect existing changes before editing.
  5. Continue only the active task, or claim the first unchecked task if none is active.

Editing and verification rules

  • Coordination mode is sequential. Do not launch parallel agents or begin another checklist item.
  • Claim the task and run mesh check for every planned file before editing.
  • Keep code, tests, benchmarks, and documentation changes inside the current task's scope.
  • Do not mark a task complete until targeted tests, the full suite, changed-file lint, and its benchmark pass.
  • Baseline: 83 passed, 6 skipped, and one Windows containment failure. No phase may add failures; P02 must remove the known failure.
  • Preserve unrelated changes and never rewrite shared history.

Complete or pause a task

  • Cross off the task in docs/PHASE_PROGRESS.md; add a brief summary, verification evidence, commit SHA, and two-line handoff.
  • Run mesh done <task-id>, append a handoff to any, push the checkpoint, and stop.
  • Do not start the next task without explicit user approval.
  • If blocked or close to a usage cutoff, leave the working tree intact, record dirty files and the next command, append a handoff, and stop.
Changes

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.
