tokenless AGENTS.md

Repository instructions for the tokenless project, covering its coding language, documentation style, tokenless feature, branches, and releases. They also define English and Simplified Chinese language requirements.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when developing or documenting tokenless, especially when changing user-facing text or maintaining its English and Chinese documentation.
Why use it?
They give an agent the project-specific rules for code, documentation, localization, and release work.

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

tokenless 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 2d 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.

Repository Development Rules

Language

  • Use English for code, identifiers, package/config keys, and inline comments.
  • Localize every reasonable user-facing surface in both English and Simplified Chinese. Never ship one language alone or assume users know the other.
  • Keep commands, flags, identifiers, protocol fields, provider/model names, and clearer technical terms unchanged.
  • Keep language selection and fallback consistent; cover externally visible localization through real boundaries.
  • Keep paired docs, such as README.md and README.zh-CN.md, structurally and semantically aligned.
  • Internal technical docs may remain English when translation adds no user value.

Documentation style

  • Do not ship walls of text. Keep paragraphs to one to three short sentences, and use a list, table, diagram, or screenshot when it makes the same point faster.
  • Keep product READMEs as scannable landing pages: lead with the value proposition and product visual, then show providers, quick start, and links to deeper documentation.
  • Put detailed reference material in the focused document that owns it and link there instead of duplicating long explanations.
  • Prefer one clear sentence over a section, and a few concrete bullets over a paragraph that merely enumerates features or steps.
  • Label illustrative or staged screenshots and metrics so they cannot be mistaken for benchmarks or production telemetry.

Tokenless skill

  • Do not read or invoke the external tokenless skill during repository work. Use this file, source, and tests.

Branches and releases

  • Land prerelease work on dev before main; direct dev commits are allowed.
  • Ticket branches are optional; target their first PR to dev.
  • Update main only by PR, normally promoted from dev; never commit or push directly.
  • Add a changeset for user-visible CLI changes requiring publication. A main PR may omit one only when no release should occur.
  • Never publish packages, releases, or artifacts manually unless explicitly asked; use release automation.

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.
