What is vakt AGENTS.md?

Project-specific development instructions for vakt, a TypeScript and Bun application that manages tools and policies for AI coding tools. They describe its architecture, libraries, commands, and coding rules.

Use them when developing vakt features, especially its CLI, MCP proxy, configuration parsing, validation, secrets handling, and tests.

They give an agent the conventions and constraints needed to make changes that fit the vakt codebase.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.03538	$0.03538

Security

Grade C, and why

vakt AGENTS.md scanned grade C with 2 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 7d 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.

Agent Development Guidelines for vakt

Project Overview

vakt is an enterprise MCP server and skills manager that syncs approved servers and policies across all AI coding tools (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Gemini CLI, Codex, OpenCode). It provides central policy, secrets management, audit logging, a skills registry, and supply chain verification — with zero infrastructure overhead.

Language: TypeScript + Bun

vakt is written in TypeScript, compiled and run with Bun. No Python. No shell scripts in src/ except src/vakt.sh (CLI shim) and src/lib/secrets.sh (legacy bash backend).

All source code in src/ is .ts
Bun is the runtime, test runner, and bundler
Zod is the schema/validation library — all external data must be parsed through a Zod schema before use
commander handles the CLI surface
smol-toml for TOML parsing (Codex provider)
@modelcontextprotocol/sdk for the MCP proxy
@opentelemetry/sdk-node + @opentelemetry/api for OTel spans
@e2b/code-interpreter for cloud runtime

Required toolchain

Tool	Purpose	Install
`bun`	Runtime, bundler, test runner	`curl -fsSL https://bun.sh/install \| bash`
`bats`	End-to-end CLI tests	`brew install bats-core`

bun run dev                                           # run from source
bun build src/index.ts --compile --outfile dist/vakt  # single binary
bun test tests/unit/                                  # unit tests
bats tests/e2e/                                       # e2e tests
bun test tests/unit/ && bats tests/e2e/               # full suite

Architecture

src/index.ts — CLI entry point (commander), registers all commands
src/providers.json — provider registry (data-driven, validated by ProvidersSchema)
src/vakt.sh — thin shim: exec bun run src/index.ts "$@"
src/commands/ — one file per top-level command (add-server, add-skill, sync, list, …)
src/daemon/ — background process manager and IPC server
src/lib/ — shared libraries (pure functions, no CLI side effects)
tests/e2e/ — bats end-to-end tests (invoke the vakt CLI directly)
skills/ — bundled skills (bash scripts + SKILL.md)
install.sh — install script

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.

vakt AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository osloer-industries/vakt (3 stars, last pushed 28d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 3,538 tokens to every session, about $0.0177 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it C with 2 findings (downloads and executes remote code, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
