ai-stack: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

ai-stack AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from jeetkhinde/ai-stack. It costs 630 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Project instructions for using a code knowledge graph before searching files directly. The graph records relationships such as callers, dependencies, tests, and affected parts of the system.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to explore a codebase, find callers and dependencies, assess the blast radius of a change, identify affected execution paths, and gather review context.
Why use it?
It can provide structural context before an agent reads many files, helping it assess change impact and review code with less manual tracing.

Instructions file for CodexOpenCode

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

This is jeetkhinde/ai-stack's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on ai-stack 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 ai-stack configures →

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

ai-stack 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 14d 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.

MCP Tools: code-review-graph

IMPORTANT: This project has a knowledge graph. ALWAYS use the code-review-graph MCP tools BEFORE using Grep/Glob/Read to explore the codebase. The graph is faster, cheaper (fewer tokens), and gives you structural context (callers, dependents, test coverage) that file scanning cannot.

When to use graph tools FIRST

  • Exploring code: semantic_search_nodes or query_graph instead of Grep
  • Understanding impact: get_impact_radius instead of manually tracing imports
  • Code review: detect_changes + get_review_context instead of reading entire files
  • Finding relationships: query_graph with callers_of/callees_of/imports_of/tests_for
  • Architecture questions: get_architecture_overview + list_communities

Fall back to Grep/Glob/Read only when the graph doesn't cover what you need.

Key Tools

Tool Use when
detect_changes Reviewing code changes — gives risk-scored analysis
get_review_context Need source snippets for review — token-efficient
get_impact_radius Understanding blast radius of a change
get_affected_flows Finding which execution paths are impacted
query_graph Tracing callers, callees, imports, tests, dependencies
semantic_search_nodes Finding functions/classes by name or keyword
get_architecture_overview Understanding high-level codebase structure
refactor_tool Planning renames, finding dead code

Workflow

  1. The graph auto-updates on file changes (via hooks).
  2. Use detect_changes for code review.
  3. Use get_affected_flows to understand impact.
  4. Use query_graph pattern="tests_for" to check coverage.

graphify

This project has a knowledge graph at graphify-out/ with god nodes, community structure, and cross-file relationships.

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.
