The-Pre-Flight-Check: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

The-Pre-Flight-Check AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from mirekondro/The-Pre-Flight-Check. It costs 1,406 tokens per session, scanned C, original, MIT.

Project instructions for a mandatory pre-flight check that runs type checking, code style checks, tests, and a security audit in sequence. A pre-flight check is a quality gate run before work is declared complete.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it in Codex or another agent that reads AGENTS.md to run the check before declaring work done, staging changes, committing, pushing, or preparing a pull request.
Why use it?
It prevents an agent from claiming a change is finished or sending it for review before the project's real checks have passed.

This is mirekondro/The-Pre-Flight-Check's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on The-Pre-Flight-Check 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 The-Pre-Flight-Check 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

The-Pre-Flight-Check AGENTS.md scanned grade C with 2 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 8d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 158 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Pre-Flight Check — Agent Instructions

For: OpenAI Codex, Codex CLI, any agent that reads AGENTS.md. The engine (run-pipeline.py) is vanilla Python 3 with no external deps — it runs anywhere.


What this is

pre-flight-check is a mandatory, fail-fast quality gate. It runs your project's real tooling in a strict sequence:

Typecheck → Lint → Test → Security Audit

The script auto-detects Node.js (package.json) or Python (pyproject.toml, requirements.txt, etc.) and invokes the appropriate tools. Each stage only runs if the previous one passed.


Mandatory trigger rule

You MUST run the pre-flight check before:

  • Telling the user a task is "done", "complete", "fixed", "ready", or any synonym.
  • Staging, committing, or pushing any code change.
  • Opening or marking a pull request ready for review.
  • Moving on to a different task or file after a code edit.

If you are about to produce any of those outputs — stop, run the check first.

How to run

python3 .pre-flight-check/scripts/run-pipeline.py

The script prints a header per stage as it runs, then emits one of three terminal blocks:

Output Exit code Meaning
### ✅ PRE-FLIGHT PASSED 0 All gates green. You may proceed.
### ❌ PRE-FLIGHT FAILURE: [STAGE] 1 A gate failed. Stop. Fix.
### ⚠️ PRE-FLIGHT SKIPPED: … 1 Runtime undetected or no tools found. Resolve before proceeding.

Strict Fail-Fast Protocol

If the script outputs ### ❌ PRE-FLIGHT FAILURE: [STAGE_NAME], you are FORBIDDEN from:

  • Declaring the task done.
  • Committing, staging, or pushing any code.
  • Switching to a different task, file, or feature.
  • Suppressing the error (// @ts-ignore, # type: ignore, # noqa, eslint-disable, removing the failing test, adding to an ignore list).
  • Re-running the pipeline unchanged hoping for a different result.

Your only permitted next action: repair the exact error named by the failing stage, then re-run. Loop until ### ✅ PRE-FLIGHT PASSED.

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.
