cheatengine-mcp-bridge AGENTS.md

cheatengine-mcp-bridge AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from miscusi-peek/cheatengine-mcp-bridge. It costs 2,256 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Instructions for a bridge that lets AI agents use the Model Context Protocol to control Cheat Engine on Windows. Cheat Engine is a tool for inspecting and modifying a running program, and the bridge exposes tools for tasks such as memory inspection, code injection, and automation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to configure the bridge, load its Lua script in Cheat Engine, install its Python dependencies, and run integration tests. The tests require Cheat Engine and an attached process.
Why use it?
It explains how to install, start, and test the bridge, so an agent can interact with a running Windows process through Cheat Engine.

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

cheatengine-mcp-bridge 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.

AGENTS.md

This file provides guidance to Codex (Codex.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.

What this project is

A three-tier bridge that lets AI agents (via MCP) drive Cheat Engine to inspect and manipulate a running Windows process. See README.md for user-facing docs. Current wire/app version: 12.0.0. After the v12 overhaul the bridge exposes ~180 MCP tools covering memory, process lifecycle, code injection, symbol management, assembly/compilation, GUI automation, input, cheat tables, and kernel-mode operations.

Commands

# Install Python deps (Windows only — uses pywin32)
pip install -r MCP_Server/requirements.txt

# Integration test suite (requires: CE running, ce_mcp_bridge.lua loaded, a process attached)
python MCP_Server/test_mcp.py

Loading the Lua side in Cheat Engine: File -> Execute Script -> open MCP_Server/ce_mcp_bridge.lua -> Execute. Some CE builds expose this through Table -> Show Cheat Table Lua Script; in that case execute dofile([[C:\path\to\cheatengine-mcp-bridge\MCP_Server\ce_mcp_bridge.lua]]) instead of pasting the full bridge. Success log: [MCP v12.0.0] MCP Server Listening on: CE_MCP_Bridge_v99. Re-executing the script auto-calls StopMCPBridge / cleanupZombieState first, so reloading is safe.

There is no build step, no linter, and no unit-test harness. test_mcp.py is a single end-to-end script that talks to the live Named Pipe; running a "single test" means editing the all_tests dict in test_mcp.py:main or commenting out sections.

The MCP server is normally spawned by the AI client over stdio, but can be launched directly with python MCP_Server/mcp_cheatengine.py for debugging (it blocks waiting for stdio JSON-RPC).

Architecture

Three processes, two IPC layers:

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.
