agentpool copilot-instructions.md

A set of project rules for Python code style, automated tests, and documentation comments.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when writing or reviewing Python code, PyTest tests, and Google-style docstrings in the project.
Why use it?
It gives contributors one shared standard for how Python 3.13 code should be written and checked. This reduces inconsistent formatting, test structure, and documentation.

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

agentpool copilot-instructions.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 yesterday.

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.

What it actually says

Code style

You can assume Python 3.13. Use newest language features if possible Consider using pattern matching, walrus operators and other new syntax features. Adhere to pep8.

Tests

Tests are written using PyTest. Dont put tests into a class.

DocStrings

DocStrings are written in google-style. Dont add the types to the "Args" section. Only add a Return section if a value is returned and the meaning of the returned value is not obvious. You can use markdown admonitions with python-markdown syntax if neccessary (!!! info, !!! note, !!! warning). You can use markdown tables and markdown lists if neccessary.

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.
