ungate: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

ungate AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from orchidfiles/ungate. It costs 3,714 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Architecture instructions for Ungate, a Cursor extension and local proxy that routes requests from Cursor to Claude, ChatGPT, or MiniMax subscriptions. A monorepo is one code repository containing several related applications and shared packages.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when working on the VS Code or Cursor extension, proxy endpoints, request conversion, the Svelte dashboard, shared packages, or Cloudflare Tunnel setup.
Why use it?
They explain how the extension, proxy, web interface, shared code, tunnel, and provider APIs connect, reducing the risk of changing one part without accounting for the others.

This is orchidfiles/ungate's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on ungate 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 ungate 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

ungate 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 16d 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.

Ungate — architecture and project structure

Purpose

Ungate is a Cursor extension that lets you use Claude, ChatGPT, and MiniMax subscriptions instead of paying for API tokens. It consists of a VS Code extension, a local HTTP proxy (Fastify), a Svelte WebUI, and a shared types/constants library. The primary user value is using a subscription through Cursor's native chat, not exposing a generic proxy for arbitrary providers.

Scope: one monorepo with the extension, proxy, and web UI. Tunnel integration is part of the product because Cursor cannot reach localhost from its backend. Hosted deployment, custom domains, and external key-management infrastructure are out of scope.

Data flow

Cursor → Cloudflare Tunnel → Ungate API → Provider API. Cursor cannot call localhost, so a public tunnel URL is required. Ungate listens on a custom OpenAI Base URL, transforms requests into the target provider format and back.

apps/api — proxy server

Fastify v5 server, spawned by the extension as a child Node.js process. CORS is handled globally via @fastify/cors. Both the extension and the API are bundled with tsup (CJS) — production entry point is bundle/main.cjs, dev entry point is dist/main.js.

Entry points:

  • /v1/chat/completions — OpenAI-compatible endpoint, accepts requests from Cursor
  • /v1/messages — Anthropic-compatible endpoint (direct proxy)
  • /v1/analytics — request statistics
  • /v1/auth/* — OAuth routes (Claude, ChatGPT)
  • /v1/models — model list
  • /v1/settings — settings

Architecture:

  • src/server.ts — Fastify initialization, plugin registration
  • src/config.ts — static configuration (URLs, OAuth, beta parameters)
  • src/plugins/auth.ts — preHandler for API-key authentication

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.
