uFawkesAI: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

uFawkesAI AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from paruff/uFawkesAI. It costs 717 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A project-wide instruction file for AI coding agents that states the product context, technical stack, data rules, and non-negotiable working policies. It directs agents to load more detailed guidance only when needed.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to guide agents working on the uFawkesAI orchestration framework, including rules about secrets, customer data, human review, and model selection.
Why use it?
It keeps frequently loaded instructions short while making important safety and project rules consistent. It also clarifies that people review and approve AI-generated code before it is merged.

Written for Codex and OpenCode: the file is AGENTS.md. Also seen: mentions CLAUDE.md; mentions Claude Code; mentions AGENTS.md.

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

uFawkesAI 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 17d 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.

Agent Instructions — uFawkesAI

Loaded on every request, so it stays one page. Detail lives in docs/AGENT_REFERENCE.md (CI gates, commit/hook rules, metrics, assertion runner) and .agents/README.md (full routing); load them when relevant.

1. AI Policy

  • AI agents implement. Humans decide. No AI-generated code merges without human review.
  • No customer PII in AI prompts.
  • Questions: read-only/question mode. Multi-file work: agentic mode. Unsure which model or mode: docs/MODEL_ROUTING_GUIDE.md.
  • More than 3 files: state scope, list files, ask "Confirm I should proceed?" first.

2. Project

uFawkesAI: an agent orchestration template for platform engineering (agents, skills, hooks, rules, multi-harness config). Stack: TypeScript · Node 22 · GitHub Actions · OpenTelemetry. Harnesses: OpenCode and Claude Code first-class; Codex and Gemini CLI compatible. All four run in ghcr.io/paruff/fawkes-space and are verified by scripts/multi-harness-smoke.sh (docs/ai-sdlc/dual-harness-template/spec.md R1). CLAUDE.md, .cursorrules, .github/copilot-instructions.md and .cursor/rules/AGENTS.md are symlinks to this file.

3. Five Hard Rules

  1. No secrets, API keys, or credentials in any file.
  2. No merging your own PR.
  3. No modifying AGENTS.md (edit the source, never its symlinks); owner approval only.
  4. pre-commit run --all-files passes before every commit.
  5. Agent reports satisfy .agents/assertions/minimal-report.yaml.

4. Routing

Four agents, each a boundary that can block, write or change repo state:

Task Agent Owns
"Plan how to build X" @planner scope, tasks, dependency order
"Implement feature X" @builder code, tests, manifests (the working tree)
"Prove it works" / "Review" @verifier the verdict; the only agent that can block
"Ship / release / tag" @operator commit, PR, tag, publish; never merges

@planner → @builder → @verifier → @operator → human merges. A feature's docs/ai-sdlc/<feature>/{intent,spec,plan}.md comes first (/plan). Load the Superpowers skill for the stage (brainstorming, writing-plans, test-driven-development, verification-before-completion, systematic-debugging, …). Always-on rules: .agents/rules/. Changing any agent configuration: .agents/skills/continuous-evals/SKILL.md.

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.
