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

This is narenkatakam/ux-audit's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on ux-audit 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 ux-audit 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

ux-audit 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 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.

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.

UX Audit — Agent Instructions

This repository uses AGENTS.md as the shared instruction entry point for multi-agent tools (Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf).

Scope

  • Applies to the whole repository.
  • Used when maintaining skills/ux-audit/SKILL.md, README.md, docs/, and reference files.

Repository Goals

  • Keep this skill practical, concise, and reusable across different products and stacks.
  • Ensure outputs are implementable — specific enough to code against, not generic slogans.
  • Maintain a product-thinking lens: every rule should trace back to a user outcome.

Content Rules

  • Default language is English.
  • Keep the term "Skill" in docs and UI copy unless a request explicitly asks otherwise.
  • Do not leak internal style constraints into end-user product copy.
  • Prefer user-task framing and state/result framing in UI examples.
  • Avoid overfitting guidance to one specific product, page type, or business domain.

UX Rules to Preserve

  • Prioritize task-first UX and clear primary action hierarchy.
  • Layer help text (always visible only when necessary; detailed guidance on demand).
  • Make key states perceivable with low-noise signals (structure first, labels second).
  • Keep spacing/repetition/alignment consistent; enforce the 4px base unit scale.
  • No emoji as UI icons; use a consistent icon set.
  • Accessibility (WCAG 2.1 AA) is a non-negotiable baseline, not a feature.

Editing Rules

  • Keep updates small and coherent; avoid broad rewrites without clear value.
  • When changing skills/ux-audit/SKILL.md, ensure README.md and docs/ stay aligned.
  • If adding a new rule, include one concrete example or acceptance check.
  • New reference documents should follow the existing pattern: core idea, practical rules, review question.

Attribution

This skill is a fork of oil-oil/oiloil-ui-ux-guide, expanded with accessibility, responsive design, typography, color systems, navigation, and data visualization guidance. Original work licensed under Apache 2.0.

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.
