rhizome-mcp AGENTS.md

rhizome-mcp AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from Odrin/rhizome-mcp. It costs 236 tokens per session, scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

Project instructions for Odrin’s Rhizome task-tracking server. They define how agents claim work, keep leases, save checkpoints, record outcomes, and use the related workflow guides.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them before editing tracked work, during interruption recovery, and when finishing an attempt with truthful verification and next steps.
Why use it?
They keep the task backlog and implementation status in the tracking system, reducing conflicting or outdated progress notes.

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

rhizome-mcp 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 5d 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.

What it actually says

Agent Guidelines

Use the configured rhizome-mcp server as the source of truth for active work and durable decisions.

Workflow

Claim tracked work through the rhizome-mcp server before editing. Keep the returned lease token private and available until the attempt completes, renewing before expiry and saving restartable checkpoints. Finish every attempt with its truthful outcome, verification actually performed, and next steps.

See the agent workflow guide for the complete select/claim/execute/finish workflow.

Never write in_progress; it is derived from an active lease. Never maintain the backlog or implementation status in Markdown.

Read rhizome://guides/agent-workflow for the full workflow, rhizome://guides/issue-lifecycle for state rules, and rhizome://guides/multi-agent-handoff for recovery. Use the rhizome-task-workflow skill when executing tracked work.

Build and test commands are in README.md; implementation contracts are indexed by SPEC.md.

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.
