githueber AGENTS.md

githueber AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from lkoelman/githueber. It costs 911 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Repository instructions for githueber that recommend test-driven development, or TDD: writing a failing test, making it pass with minimal code, and then refactoring safely.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when adding features, fixing bugs, refactoring code, or deciding how to test behavior that is not yet well understood.
Why use it?
They provide a repeatable way to prevent regressions and require tests for new behavior and bug fixes.

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

githueber 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 4d 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.

Rules

Test-Driven Development (TDD) Workflow

Strong preference for TDD; Agent should guide this workflow proactively.

TDD Steps

  1. Write failing test first (before any implementation)

    • Add test case to appropriate test file in package
    • Run pytest to confirm test fails with expected error
    • Commit the failing test (optional but recommended for clarity)
  2. Implement minimal code to pass test

    • Write only enough code to make the test pass
    • Avoid over-engineering or extra features
  3. Run tests again

    • pytest should now pass
    • If not, iterate on implementation
  4. Refactor if needed

    • Keep tests passing while improving code
    • Run pytest after each refactor
  5. Repeat for next behavior

When TDD is impractical:

  • Document why (e.g., characterization test requires understanding existing behavior first)
  • Use characterization tests: write tests that capture current behavior, then refactor safely
  • Still aim for test coverage of new/changed code

Test coverage expectations:

  • New behavior: must have tests
  • Bug fixes: add regression test that would have caught the bug
  • Refactors: existing tests must still pass; add tests if coverage gaps exist

Editing and Change Discipline

Hard Rules

  1. Read before writing: NEVER propose changes to code you haven't read. Use Read tool first.
  2. No surprise changes: Only make changes directly requested or clearly necessary for the task.
  3. Smallest scope first: Build/test single modules or packages before workspace-wide operations.
  4. Preserve documentation comments: Keep existing documentation comments when editing code. If a comment becomes inaccurate, rewrite it to match the new behavior; do not remove documentation comments without replacing them with accurate documentation.

What NOT to do (unless explicitly requested)

  • Add features beyond what was asked
  • Refactor surrounding code "while you're there"
  • Add docstrings, comments, or type annotations to unchanged code
  • Add error handling for scenarios that can't happen
  • Create helpers/utilities for one-time operations
  • Design for hypothetical future requirements
  • Add backwards-compatibility hacks (e.g., renaming unused _vars, re-exporting types, // removed comments)
  • Delete unused code without confirming it's truly unused

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.
