skills: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

skills AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from miptah21/skills. It costs 2,545 tokens per session, scanned C, original, MIT.

Repository-wide instructions for working in a library of coding-agent skills. They describe how agents should use project guidance, organize skills, and follow the repository's working conventions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when working on the skills library, especially when deciding which project instructions or specialized skill guidance applies.
Why use it?
They give agents shared rules for navigating and changing the repository instead of relying on assumptions about its structure or methods.

Written for Codex and OpenCode: the file is AGENTS.md. Also seen: mentions subagents; mentions Claude Code; mentions AGENTS.md.

This is miptah21/skills's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on skills 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 skills 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

skills 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 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.

Project Overview

This repository is a comprehensive Agentic Engineering Skills Library — a curated collection of 119 specialized AI agent skills compatible with modern AI coding assistants (Antigravity, Claude Code, Cursor, Cline, Codex, etc.). Skills cover the full engineering stack: data engineering (dbt, Airflow, Snowflake), frontend (React, Next.js), financial analysis, document generation, DevOps, and more.

Core Agent Behavior & Interaction

  • Progressive Disclosure: Do not assume context. When interacting with this repository, always rely on the specialized skills stored in .agents/skills/. Read the SKILL.md of the relevant skill before executing complex tasks.
  • Methodology Coexistence: Alternative development methodologies (e.g., Superpowers, Karpathy Guidelines) are allowed to coexist alongside default skills to offer flexibility. Keep overlapping skills cleanly separated in their respective directories and metadata categories (e.g., the dedicated "superpowers" category).
  • Modularity: Treat agent skills as code. Maintain separation of concerns between deterministic tasks (e.g., executing Python scripts) and LLM-driven reasoning.
  • Shared Vocabulary: Read .agents/skills/CONTEXT.md for domain terms, architecture context, and coding conventions.

Phase 0 — Intent Gate (EVERY message)

Before doing anything, classify the request:

Type Signal Action
Trivial Single file, known location, direct answer Execute directly
Explicit Specific file/line, clear command Execute directly
Exploratory "How does X work?", "Find Y" Research first
Open-ended "Improve", "Refactor", "Add feature" Assess codebase first
Ambiguous Unclear scope, multiple interpretations Ask ONE clarifying question

Ambiguity Check

Situation Action
Single valid interpretation Proceed
Multiple interpretations, similar effort Proceed with default, note assumption
Multiple interpretations, 2x+ effort difference MUST ask
Missing critical info MUST ask
User's design seems flawed MUST raise concern before implementing

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.
