ol-infrastructure AGENTS.md

Repository instructions for a large infrastructure-as-code monorepo at MIT Open Learning. Infrastructure as code means managing cloud systems with configuration and programs; a monorepo keeps many related packages in one repository.

In plain words
What is it for?
Setting up the development environment, finding the right package, formatting and checking Python code, checking types, and running the test suite.
Why use it?
They explain where different parts of the codebase live and provide setup and validation commands, reducing guesswork when changing shared infrastructure.

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

ol-infrastructure 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 3d 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.

Agent Instructions for ol-infrastructure Repository

This is a large-scale infrastructure-as-code monorepo (467 Python files, ~91K lines of code) for managing MIT Open Learning's cloud infrastructure using Pulumi, Packer/PyInfra, and Concourse.

Scoped AGENTS.md files exist inside src/bilder/, src/ol_concourse/, and src/ol_infrastructure/ — read those when working inside those packages. This root file covers repo-wide concerns only.


Quick Start

# Environment setup (one-time)
uv sync
pulumi login s3://mitol-pulumi-state

# Validate your changes
uv run ruff format src/        # Auto-format code
uv run ruff check src/         # Check code quality
uv run mypy src/               # Type check (75s runtime)
uv run pytest tests/           # Run tests

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.
