What is codelore AGENTS.md?

Repository instructions for codelore, a plugin that works with both Claude Code and Codex CLI. They describe the project layout, its skills, and rules for keeping both versions aligned.

They help agents navigate the repository, understand how skills are distributed, and preserve shared behavior between Claude Code and Codex CLI.

They give coding agents the project context needed to make consistent changes across two supported tools.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.01290	$0.01290
Opus 5.5	$0.00516	$0.00516
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00258	$0.00258
Haiku 4.5	$0.00129	$0.00129

Security

Grade A, and why

codelore 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.

Agent Context: codelore

This repository is a dual-ecosystem plugin — installable natively in both Claude Code and Codex CLI via the qa-vault/marketplace catalog. When working on this codebase, keep both ecosystems in sync.

The skills/ directory is the single source of truth for skill content. Both manifests reference it — never duplicate skill files.

Skills overview

The plugin currently ships three skills, all auto-discovered from skills/. They are designed to compose into a feedback loop — written docs become indexed, and the index gets auto-loaded into AI sessions.

document-feature — writes and maintains implementation docs with YAML frontmatter (name, description, optional triggers/related); regenerates docs/INDEX.md after every create or update. Excludes anything under docs/plans/, plans/, specs/.
migrate-project-docs — one-shot bulk migration that adds frontmatter to pre-existing docs and bootstraps docs/INDEX.md. Idempotent (re-runs do nothing on a fully migrated tree); skips plan folders; asks the user about ambiguous files before touching them.
consulting-project-docs — router. Reads docs/INDEX.md and pulls only relevant docs into the agent's context whenever the user is planning, debugging, investigating, or onboarding. Silent no-op if docs/INDEX.md is missing — never blocks, only nudges to run migrate-project-docs when appropriate.

When adding new skills or changing skill behavior, preserve this loop: writing → indexing → routing. See README.md for the user-facing description.

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.
