AGENTS.md

mcp-app-typescript-template AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from pomerium/mcp-app-typescript-template. It costs 2,095 tokens per session, scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

Repository instructions for an MCP Apps template: a project where AI tools connect to interactive React views through the Model Context Protocol.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when installing dependencies, starting the server and widget development tools, or changing the MCP backend and its interactive widgets.
Why use it?
They give coding agents the project layout, setup steps, and available commands so they can work in the repository without guessing.

Instructions file for CodexOpenCode

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

This is pomerium/mcp-app-typescript-template's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on mcp-app-typescript-template itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere.

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

mcp-app-typescript-template 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.

Repository Guidelines

Guidance for AI assistants working in this repo. This file covers operational conventions and agent-specific notes; for setup walkthroughs, full code samples, and narrative explanations (dev serving, App API, CSP, deployment), see README.md — that is the authoritative source and this file avoids restating it.

Project Overview

This is an MCP Apps template built with the MCP Apps spec and Model Context Protocol (MCP). npm workspaces split the codebase: server/ is the MCP backend (Node.js + Express), widgets/ houses React widgets rendered in host iframes via the MCP Apps App API. Vite auto-discovers and builds widgets with content-hashed assets.

Commands

Command Purpose
npm run dev MCP server + widget dev server, no build step, HMR everywhere
npm run dev:server / npm run dev:widgets Start just one half, in watch mode
npm run inspect MCP Inspector against the local server

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.
