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

blz AGENTS.md scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories โ€” prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency โ€” measured 1mo 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.

blz Repository Instructions for AI Agents

This file provides comprehensive guidance to AI agents when working with Rust code in this repository.

Important

  • Follow the @./.agents/rules/IMPORTANT.md rules
  • Check @.agents/logs/ for relevant work logs and session notes

Working Memory

Primary activity log: Linear

  • Always locate or create the matching Linear issue before you start work on a branch.
  • Capture progress via concise Linear comments whenever you pause, hand off, or finish a slice.
  • Keep the issue state current (In Progress, In Review, Done, etc.).
  • If a branch is dedicated to an issue, add a summary comment in Linear before switching contexts.

Optional scratch notes (archived)

  • SCRATCHPAD.md is archived; prefer Linear for durable history.
  • Temporary jot notes are fine, but add a dated bullet and migrate/delete them before ending your session.
  • Historical scratch snapshots live under .agents/.archive/logs/.

Use blz

  • You're working on blz, so you should use it!
  • For docs search, use the blz CLI tool: @docs/agents/use-blz.md

๐Ÿš€ Quick Start for Agents

Before You Begin

  1. Run the agent check script: ./scripts/agent-check.sh for compiler diagnostics and automated fixes
  2. Check current build status: cargo check --message-format=json for machine-readable errors
  3. Review unsafe code policy: See .agents/rules/conventions/rust/unsafe-policy.md if working with unsafe blocks
  4. Prime the build cache:
    • Export RUSTC_WRAPPER=sccache in your shell (or run the bootstrap script) so rebuilds stay fast.
    • Git worktrees: If using worktrees, setup scripts automatically configure shared target-shared/ to save 40-50% disk space. Check with scripts/prune-shared-target.sh --check.
    • Single worktree: Run scripts/prune-target.sh --check to confirm the target/ directory isn't bloated; use --prune-debug (and optionally --sweep) when debug caches climb past the threshold.

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.
