agentsview AGENTS.md

Repository instructions for agentsview, including general rules for coding-agent work and a map from task types to focused guides. It also covers Git workflow and keeping related instruction files linked correctly.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it before implementing features, fixing bugs, changing tests, storage, watchers, build files, S3 support, or frontend code.
Why use it?
It prevents agents from editing the wrong area without first reading the rules for testing, storage, background work, builds, providers, or the frontend.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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

agentsview 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 today.

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.

Agent Instructions

Scope

  • These rules apply to all agent work in this repository.
  • Requests to review, analyze, or explain are read-only unless the user also asks for changes.
  • Read every focused guide whose route matches the task before editing files.
  • More specific instructions override broader ones.
  • Keep CLAUDE.md as a symlink to this file. Record new durable rules here or in the matching focused guide.

Task Routes

Task or path Read before editing
Features, bug fixes, tests, or test helpers docs/agents/testing.md
SQLite, PostgreSQL, CockroachDB, DuckDB, archive resync, or storage queries docs/agents/storage.md
Watchers, polling, sync scheduling, background work, or memory investigations docs/agents/background-work.md
Build commands, toolchains, CI build tags, or dependencies docs/agents/build.md
S3 ingest, S3Provider, or Source.S3Discovery docs/agents/s3-providers.md
Any frontend file frontend/AGENTS.md
Frontend controls, styling, or reusable components frontend/AGENTS.md and DESIGN.md

The README.md and Makefile are the sources for project facts, setup, and commands. Do not copy their catalogues into this file.

Roborev

  • Never run roborev review unless the user asks for it.
  • Never invoke a roborev skill, including roborev-fix or roborev-design-review-branch, unless the user asks for that skill.
  • Other roborev commands may be used when they fit the task.

Git and Delivery

  1. Check the branch state before editing. Do not create or switch branches without the user's permission. A Codex-managed detached worktree may receive commits; leave branch creation to the user or app.
  2. Commit every turn that changes tracked files. Do not make empty commits. If a turn is read-only or changes only ignored files, say that no commit was made.
  3. Keep commits focused and use clear conventional commit messages.
  4. Do not amend, squash, rebase, push, or pull unless the user asks.
  5. Do not add generated-with lines, attribution blocks, validation footers, or command transcripts to commit messages.
  6. Deliver changes through pull requests from feature branches. Never merge a pull request; merging is the user's decision.

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.
