adaptive-coding-mcp: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

adaptive-coding-mcp AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from MisakiSenpa1/adaptive-coding-mcp. It costs 739 tokens per session, scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

Repository instructions for an adaptive coding MCP server, a service that lets an AI agent work with code while keeping research and changes organised. MCP is a standard way for an agent to call tools.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when making or reviewing changes, following the repository workflow, running the required research steps, and avoiding unauthorised production changes.
Why use it?
They define the project’s mission, branch rules, required reading, and safety limits around production systems.

Written for Codex and OpenCode: the file is AGENTS.md. Also seen: mentions Codex.

This is MisakiSenpa1/adaptive-coding-mcp's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on adaptive-coding-mcp 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 adaptive-coding-mcp 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 A, and why

adaptive-coding-mcp 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 5d 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.

Adaptive Coding MCP Agent Instructions

Read this file first, then read research/PROJECT_STATE.md and research/DEVLOG.md before making changes.

Mission

Build a reliable, persistent, auditable MCP harness that lets the ChatGPT web client remain the primary coding agent. The bootstrap phase may use Codex as an engineering executor, but Codex is not part of the measured ChatGPT-only system.

Repository roles

  • main: reviewed stable bootstrap state.
  • bootstrap/codex: candidate implementation work performed by desktop Codex.
  • research/chatgpt: ChatGPT + MCP research and experiment preparation.
  • rescue/maintenance: recovery-only fixes when the harness is unavailable.
  • experiment/*: later frozen benchmark versions; do not create them casually.

Work only on the branch assigned to the current worktree. Never force-push or rewrite shared history. Do not merge into main; leave a reviewable commit for ChatGPT and the operator.

Mandatory safety boundaries

  • Do not modify, stop, restart, redeploy, or reconfigure the production Coding Tools MCP service.
  • Do not edit outside the current worktree unless the task explicitly names a repository-owned test/result directory.
  • Do not use root or modify firewall, systemd, SSH, or operating-system config.
  • Do not read, print, copy, or commit secrets, .env files, tokens, SSH keys, browser credentials, or production configuration.
  • Do not add a second primary model, autonomous agent loop, or Hermes runtime.
  • Keep worker-model support disabled by default and optional in every design.
  • Do not deploy a server as part of a coding task.

Engineering rules

  • Preserve upstream Coding Tools MCP semantics in the V0 profile.
  • Prefer deterministic, bounded, inspectable behavior over model-generated inference inside the harness.
  • New tools must have synchronized registry metadata, input schemas, runtime handlers, documentation, annotations, and schema-drift tests.
  • Persistent state must use explicit schemas, transactions, bounded storage, safe paths, and auditable records.
  • Full command output and checkpoints require quotas and retention controls.
  • Avoid unnecessary dependencies. Do not install Hermes dependencies, compile Codex, or introduce Docker merely for development convenience.

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.
