engineering-team-agents: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

engineering-team-agents AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from niksacdev/engineering-team-agents. It costs 1,196 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Instructions for a collaborative system of specialized engineering agents. Different agents handle product requirements, user experience, architecture, code review, documentation, responsible AI, and deployment practices.

In plain words
What is it for?
They help organize feature work into specialist roles, assign responsibilities, and produce documents such as requirements, user journeys, architecture decisions, reviews, and deployment guidance.
Why use it?
They define who should handle each part of a feature and require the team to preserve decisions in project documentation. This reduces gaps between planning, design, implementation, review, and release.

Written for Codex and OpenCode: the file is AGENTS.md. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions CLAUDE.md; mentions Claude Code.

This is niksacdev/engineering-team-agents's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on engineering-team-agents itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere.

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

engineering-team-agents 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 1mo 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

Project: Collaborative Engineering Team Agents

Enterprise-grade multi-agent system for reliable, maintainable, and business-aligned code.

Agent Collaboration Pattern

Every feature request follows this collaborative workflow:

  1. Product Manager clarifies user needs and business value
  2. UX Designer maps user journeys and validates workflows
  3. Architecture ensures scalable, secure system design
  4. Code Reviewer validates implementation quality and security
  5. Technical Writer creates documentation and content
  6. Responsible AI prevents bias and ensures accessibility
  7. GitOps optimizes deployment and operational excellence

All agents create persistent documentation in structured docs/ folders.

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.
