tanstack-start-start AGENTS.md

Repository instructions for a TanStack Start project that uses Vite+, a single command-line tool for installing packages and running development, tests, linting, formatting, and builds.

In plain words
What is it for?
Installing dependencies, starting the app, checking code, running tests and linting, building the project, and handling conflicts between built-in Vite+ commands and package scripts.
Why use it?
They prevent contributors from using the wrong package commands or tool entry points and define the checks required before work is considered complete.

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

tanstack-start-start 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 25 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Using Vite+ (vp)

Vite+ is one CLI for dev, build, tests, lint, format, and package management—it wraps Vite and related bundled tooling. vp dev and vp build invoke Vite. Explore with vp help, vp <command> --help, and vp --version.

Common commands: vp install, vp dev, vp check, vp lint, vp test, vp build, vp run <script>, vp add / vp remove / vp update.

Workflow: After pulling, run vp install when dependencies or lockfiles may have changed. Before calling work done, run vp check and vp test.

Common Pitfalls

  • Using the package manager directly: Do not use pnpm, npm, or Yarn directly. Vite+ can handle all package manager operations.
  • Always use Vite commands to run tools: Don't attempt to run vp vitest or vp oxlint. They do not exist. Use vp test and vp lint instead.
  • Running scripts: Vite+ commands take precedence over package.json scripts. If there is a test script defined in scripts that conflicts with the built-in vp test command, run it using vp run test.
  • Do not install Vitest, Oxlint, Oxfmt, or tsdown directly: Vite+ wraps these tools. They must not be installed directly. You cannot upgrade these tools by installing their latest versions. Always use Vite+ commands.
  • Use Vite+ wrappers for one-off binaries: Use vp dlx instead of package-manager-specific dlx/npx commands.
  • Import JavaScript modules from vite-plus: Instead of importing from vite or vitest, all modules should be imported from the project's vite-plus dependency. For example, import { defineConfig } from 'vite-plus'; or import { expect, test, vi } from 'vite-plus/test';. You must not install vitest to import test utilities.
  • Type-Aware Linting: There is no need to install oxlint-tsgolint, vp lint --type-aware works out of the box.

Supplementary project tools

Not part of vp check. Use vp run so installs stay routed through Vite+.

  • Fallow (vp run fallow) — unused files, dependencies, and exports. Use when trimming deps or refactoring entry points (.fallowrc.json configures the project).
  • react-doctor (vp run doctor) — React-focused health checks. The script uses --no-lint; keep ordinary linting on vp lint.

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.
