pixeltable-starter-kit: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

pixeltable-starter-kit AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from pixeltable/pixeltable-starter-kit. It costs 1,110 tokens per session, scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

Repository instructions for the Pixeltable Starter Kit, a collection of templates for building applications and data-processing pipelines with Pixeltable. They describe the project layout, setup, and related Pixeltable resources.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when working on the starter kit's backend, serving, batch, or other provided templates, especially when using Pixeltable tables, queries, pipelines, or integrations.
Why use it?
They help coding agents understand the repository's structure and choose the appropriate application pattern before modifying code.

Instructions file for CodexOpenCode

Written for Codex and OpenCode: the file is AGENTS.md. Also seen: mentions AGENTS.md.

This is pixeltable/pixeltable-starter-kit's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on pixeltable-starter-kit 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 pixeltable-starter-kit configures →

Needs its repository: it reads a path above its own folder, which exists only inside the repository. The line is cd chat-agent && uv sync && cd ../video-search && uv sync && cd ...

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

pixeltable-starter-kit 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 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.

Apps

Apps are one Python file (app.py): TableModel classes and a FastAPIRouter. The loop is Declare, Experiment, Serve: apply with pxt schema update, serve with pxt service update, then insert / /ask / pxt dashboard. Every example here uses uv run pxt, which works whether or not .venv is on PATH. Export API keys before the first pxt command: it starts the daemon, and the service inherits the daemon's environment. A key exported later makes the next pxt command refuse with STALE_CONFIG; run pxt daemon restart, then pxt service update. Indexes belong on the model (__indexes__). Routes live on FastAPIRouter. No TOML route tables. Already have FastAPI? Copy app.py under a project root (pixeltable.toml, or pxt init), then app.include_router(...) on the router in app.py. From plain Python, import app then app.TableModel.bind_all(TARGET) before inserting or calling ask().

Same file on Cloud: pxt db update pxt://org:mydb, then pxt secret set pxt://org KEY=..., then pxt db restart pxt://org:mydb (pods read secrets at start), then pxt schema update app.py pxt://org:mydb, then pxt service update app.py pxt://org:mydb. Then t = pxt.get_table('pxt://org:mydb/knowledge') (or .../videos). pxt db update packs the hosted image and workers; it is not Experiment. pxt schema update applies tables. It does not start HTTP. pxt service update starts HTTP (local or pxt://) and prints where with pxt service list. Experiment on Cloud is dashboard insert plus pxt schema diff.

Drift check: uv run pxt schema diff app.py agent (or videointel). Exit 0 in sync, 2 pending (--json is the plan), 1 an error naming the file, declaration, or key, 3 refused (a destructive change without --allow-destructive, or a non-interactive run without -f). Then pxt schema update. Destructive ops need --allow-destructive; CI and Dockerfiles pass -f.

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.
