zotio AGENTS.md

zotio AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from OrgMentem/zotio. It costs 2,494 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A repository guide for coding agents working on the Zotio command-line tool and its connections to Zotero, a reference-management application. It defines local rules for discovering commands and checking their effects.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when developing, updating dependencies, or working with Zotio's command-line, Zotero API, and MCP interfaces. MCP is a standard way for software tools to provide actions and data to AI agents.
Why use it?
It gives agents current, repo-specific instructions instead of relying on copied or outdated command lists. This helps reduce unsafe changes and incorrect assumptions about the tool.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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

zotio 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 3d 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.

zotio Agents Guide

This repo was bootstrapped by CLI Printing Press in 2026-05, but it has been hand-maintained since. The generator was retired on 2026-07-08: there is no regeneration path, and systemic fixes no longer route upstream first.

Local Operating Contract

Start by asking the generated CLI for current runtime truth:

zotio doctor --json
zotio agent-context --pretty

Use runtime discovery instead of relying on a copied command list:

zotio which "<capability>" --json
zotio <command> --help

Add --agent to command invocations for JSON, compact output, non-interactive defaults, no color, and confirmation-safe scripting:

zotio <command> --agent

Before running an unfamiliar command that may mutate remote state, inspect its help and prefer a dry run:

zotio <command> --help
zotio <command> --dry-run --agent

Use --yes --no-input only after the target, arguments, and side effects are clear.

For install, auth, examples, and longer product guidance, read README.md and SKILL.md. This file intentionally stays small so repo-local agents get invariant local guidance without duplicating the generated docs.

For CI, the zotio-action GitHub Action (marketplace) packages install → sync → gate on library health exit codes; see docs/guide/ci.md.

Before cutting a release (tagging v*), read dev/releasing.md — release flow, version/breaking-change decisions, validation checklist, and footguns. When the release coordinates with papio (the acquisition-side sister project), also read ~/@dev/papio/.agents/skills/papio-release/SKILL.md: papio enforces a minimum-zotio-version floor and its release order depends on whether that floor moved.

Dependency Updates

Two invariants that a routine go get -u breaks silently. Both are gated, so make ci catches them before CI does.

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.
