rockie-codex: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

rockie-codex AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from Rockielab/rockie-codex. It costs 905 tokens per session, scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

Project instructions for Rockie Codex, a local overlay that customizes the official Codex program for tenant environments. They explain which files are mirrored locally and where the canonical source for skills and runtime extensions lives.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when working on Codex runtime overlays, project or user extensions, agent instructions, skills, or the process that synchronizes changes from the canonical platform repository.
Why use it?
They prevent changes from being made in a copy that will later be overwritten and help developers understand how extensions reach tenant projects.

Instructions file for CodexOpenCode

Written for Codex and OpenCode: the file is AGENTS.md. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions CLAUDE.md; reads ~/.codex paths.

This is Rockielab/rockie-codex's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on rockie-codex 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 rockie-codex 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

rockie-codex 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.

How to work in rockie-codex

Local overlay for the official codex binary. Customizes the runtime in a per-tenant Fly machine when MODE=subscription and BINARY=codex.

For what this repo does for you as a researcher, see README.md. For cross-repo orientation (the four-harness model + alignment agent), see ../docs/architecture.md in the workspace meta-repo.

First reads (after the workspace docs/ reads)

  1. README.md — researcher-facing overview.
  2. project-extension/ — repo-installed extension layer.
  3. user-extension/ — user-global extension layer.
  4. agents-md/ — AGENTS.md templates that get rendered into tenant projects.

⚠️ This repo is a LOCAL OVERLAY, not the canonical source

Skills, hooks, memory schema, scripts → canonical source is ../platform-skills/.

The runtime image's assemble-skills.sh pulls from platform-skills/ (NOT from this repo) and writes to ~/.codex/skills/ inside the per-tenant machine. This repo is a local copy used for development reference.

The Phase 6 alignment agent propagates changes from platform-skills/ into this repo's mirror copies. Don't edit skills here directly — edit them in platform-skills/ and let the alignment agent push.

The exceptions are intentional divergences (in .claude/skills/align-overlays/intentional-divergences.yaml in the meta-repo): codex-side conventions like agents-md/ templates, natural-language invocation style (vs claude's claude-md/ and slash commands), and hooks.json (vs claude's hooks/ directory).

Process for changes here

  1. Is this a skill/hook/memory change? Edit platform-skills/ instead. Don't fork here.
  2. Is this an agents-md template change? Edit agents-md/ here. The alignment agent will mirror to rockie-claude/claude-md/ with translation (AGENTS.md ↔ CLAUDE.md, NL invocation ↔ slash commands).
  3. Is this a structural change to project-extension/ or user-extension/? Likely affects rockie-claude too — flag in the PR description.
  4. Tests: pnpm test (codex-extension's vitest config, lint via tests.yml).
  5. Commit: Sam Larson author, no AI trailers, Conventional Commits.

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.
