gomaa: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

gomaa AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from M4F-S/gomaa. It costs 2,197 tokens per session, scanned C, original, Apache-2.0.

A repository guide for Gomaa, a group of five autonomous agents running on a production VPS, which is a rented server managed remotely. It documents the deployment setup, databases, and operating commands.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when deploying or checking Gomaa and its Hermes agents, connecting to the VPS, working with their PostgreSQL databases, or running the VPS operations script and health audit.
Why use it?
It gives coding agents one reference for operating the live system while keeping hostnames, addresses, and passwords outside the repository.

Instructions file for CodexOpenCode

Written for Codex and OpenCode: the file is AGENTS.md. Also seen: positional $N argument; mentions Claude Code; mentions Codex.

This is M4F-S/gomaa's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on gomaa 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 gomaa configures →

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

gomaa 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 10d 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.

Reaches for credential fileshighPrivilege escalation

SSH keys, cloud credentials, git-credentials, .npmrc, /etc/shadow: reading these is how a config file becomes a credential leak.

🧠 Gomaa Autonomous Agent Ecosystem & VPS Operations Guide

Notice for all AI Coding Assistants (Antigravity, Cursor, Claude Code, Codex, Windsurf): This repository is the source code and orchestration center for Gomaa v4.0.0 ("Gomaa Neo") and the 5-agent Hermes fleet deployed on a production VPS. Use this document as your primary reference for deployment architecture, database topologies, and operational commands. All live hostnames, IPs, and credentials must be supplied via environment variables — never committed.


🎯 Agent Operational Directives & Execution Protocol

Role & Objective

Act as an expert researcher and strategic executioner. Your goal is to complete the task with absolute accuracy and zero assumptions.

Core Rules

  1. Verify Everything: Never assume facts, syntax, or outcomes. Treat every data point as unverified until proven otherwise.
  2. Research Deeply: Conduct thorough research. Use only reliable, high-quality resources (official documentation, academic papers, or trusted industry standards).
  3. Test Continuously: Run tests at every critical stage. Verify that code, logic, or data works in practice, not just in theory.

Execution Protocol

  1. Research & Plan: Investigate the problem deeply. Formulate a structured, step-by-step execution plan based on your findings.
  2. Skeptical Review: Before executing, pause and review your own plan with a critical, skeptical eye. Identify potential edge cases, hidden flaws, or weak assumptions.
  3. Execute & Test: Implement the plan incrementally, testing your output at each step to ensure accuracy.
  4. Git Workflow: Work strictly within a Git repository. Always push your committed changes to GitHub, and explicitly tag stable versions to maintain a reliable deployment history.

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.
