Instructions file for CodexOpenCode

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

This is oaslananka/kicad-studio-kit's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on kicad-studio-kit 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 kicad-studio-kit 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

kicad-studio-kit 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 6d 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.

KiCad Studio Kit Agent Instructions

This file is the repository-local contract for coding agents. Follow higher-priority system and operator instructions first, then these repo rules. Any MCP-capable client or coding agent that consumes this repository should treat AGENTS.md as the canonical repository instructions.

Repository Boundaries

  • Canonical repo: oaslananka/kicad-studio-kit.
  • Product surfaces:
    • apps/vscode-extension: KiCad Studio VS Code extension.
    • packages/test-harness: private shared test utilities.
  • The MCP server lives in a separate repository — see KiCad MCP Pro.
  • Do not introduce another canonical repository or release root.
  • Keep issue scope narrow. Do not mix unrelated issues in one branch or PR.

Required First Reads

Before changing behavior, read the relevant source, tests, docs, manifests, and workflow files. For repo-wide orientation, start with:

  • README.md
  • docs/architecture/repo-structure.md
  • docs/architecture/product-boundaries.md
  • docs/testing-strategy.md
  • docs/support-matrix.md
  • docs/release.md
  • docs/agents/client-configs.md
  • docs/architecture/protocol-change-checklist.md
  • MCP server docs (see KiCad MCP Pro)

Local Commands

Use the repository package managers and lockfiles. From the repo root:

Linux/macOS:

corepack pnpm install --frozen-lockfile
corepack pnpm run lint
corepack pnpm run typecheck
corepack pnpm run test
corepack pnpm run build
corepack pnpm run verify:dist

Windows PowerShell:

corepack pnpm install --frozen-lockfile
corepack pnpm run lint
corepack pnpm run typecheck
corepack pnpm run test
corepack pnpm run build
corepack pnpm run verify:dist

Python/MCP server tests run from the KiCad MCP Pro repository.

Repo-policy checks that are often relevant:

corepack pnpm run check:agent-configs
corepack pnpm run check:ci-lanes
corepack pnpm run docs:lint
corepack pnpm run docs:links

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.
