agentmemory: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

agentmemory AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from rohitg00/agentmemory. It costs 1,875 tokens per session, scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

Project-specific instructions for an AI coding agent working on agentmemory, a system that stores information for future coding sessions. They describe its structure, development tools, and rules for keeping related files consistent.

In plain words
What is it for?
Following the repository's design, registering functions and triggers correctly, building the TypeScript project, and running its tests.
Why use it?
They reduce mistakes caused by ignoring the project's architecture or updating only part of a change. They also show which files must be changed together when adding or removing tools.

Written for Codex and OpenCode: the file is AGENTS.md. Also seen: mentions subagents; mentions Claude Code; mentions AGENTS.md.

This is rohitg00/agentmemory's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on agentmemory 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 agentmemory configures →

About the project

agentmemory is a persistent-memory system that lets AI coding agents retain and search information across sessions. It connects with several coding agents and MCP clients, storing knowledge with confidence scoring, lifecycle handling, knowledge graphs, and hybrid search. The catalogue contains agentmemory integrations such as skills, hooks, commands, a plugin, and an MCP component.

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

agentmemory 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 4d 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.

agentmemory — Agent Instructions

Architecture

agentmemory is a persistent memory system for AI coding agents, built on iii-engine's three primitives (Worker/Function/Trigger). Everything goes through registerFunction/registerTrigger/sdk.trigger() — never bypass iii-engine with standalone SQLite or in-process alternatives.

  • Engine: iii-sdk 0.22.1 with @iii-dev/helpers 0.22.1 (WebSocket to iii-engine 0.22.1 on port 49134; the client type is IIIClient, HTTP requests are HttpRequest from @iii-dev/helpers/http)
  • State: File-based SQLite via iii-engine's StateModule (./data/state_store.db)
  • Build: TypeScript → ESM via tsdown, output to dist/
  • Test: vitest (npm test excludes integration tests)

Consistency Rules

Before every commit, run npm run docs:sync and commit what it changes. It computes MCP tool counts (all, core, local fallback), REST endpoints, skills, hooks, tests, iii functions, source files, lines of code and KV scopes from the source, and rewrites them in README.md, the translated READMEs, AGENTS.md, INSTALL_FOR_AGENTS.md, plugin manifests, integration READMEs, the stat badges and the src/index.ts banner. The last synced values live in scripts/docs-sync.state.json; commit that file with the rest. npm run docs:check exits non-zero when anything is out of date. When the sync prints check <fact> <old> left in <file>, open that line: either fix it by hand or add its noun to the fact in scripts/docs-sync.ts so the next sync catches it. Never hand-edit these numbers or versions in the docs; change the source and sync.

When adding or removing MCP tools, update:

  1. src/mcp/tools-registry.ts — tool definition + getAllTools() array
  2. src/mcp/server.ts — handler case in the mcp::tools::call switch
  3. src/triggers/api.ts — REST endpoint registration
  4. src/index.ts — function registration
  5. test/mcp-standalone.test.ts — tool count assertion

When adding REST endpoints, update:

  1. src/triggers/api.ts — endpoint registration

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.
