In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when working on Kiro Gateway so an agent can follow its documented practices and investigate improperly formed request errors.
Why use it?
It gives an agent the repository’s local rules and context instead of making it guess how the project should be handled.

Instructions file for CodexOpenCode

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

This is jwadow/kiro-gateway's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on kiro-gateway 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 kiro-gateway configures →

About the project

Kiro Gateway is a proxy API gateway that exposes models available through Kiro, Amazon Q Developer, or AWS CodeWhisperer to coding tools and other OpenAI- or Anthropic-compatible clients. It is for people who want to connect those clients to Claude and other models offered by their Kiro subscription. The catalogue entry provides an instruction for using the gateway.

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 C, and why

kiro-gateway AGENTS.md scanned grade C with 1 finding 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.

Enumerates the file system for secretshighData exfiltration

Searching home directories for .env, .ssh, .aws or credential files is reconnaissance for credential theft.

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.
