intheloop: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

intheloop AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from runtimed/intheloop. It costs 2,960 tokens per session, scanned A, original, BSD-3-Clause.

Development instructions for In the Loop, a real-time collaborative notebook system. They explain its monorepo structure—a single repository containing multiple related packages—and its browser and external runtime agents.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when developing or checking In the Loop’s collaborative notebooks, real-time execution, runtime agents, or integrated AI features.
Why use it?
They give coding agents the architecture and current project status needed to choose the right package, command, and verification steps.

Instructions file for CodexOpenCode

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

This is runtimed/intheloop's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on intheloop 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 intheloop 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

intheloop 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 2mo 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.

AI Agent Development Context

This document provides essential context for AI assistants working on the In the Loop project.

Current work state and development priorities. What works, what's experimental, what needs improvement. Last updated: October 2025.

Development Workflow: The user typically runs the integrated development server (pnpm dev) which handles both frontend and backend. For checking work, run type checks first, followed by lints, tests, and UI builds. The iframe outputs server runs separately (pnpm dev:iframe).

Project Overview

In the Loop is a real-time collaborative notebook system built on event-sourced architecture using LiveStore. It supports multiple runtime paradigms: external runtime agents via @runt JSR packages, and in-browser runtime agents for HTML and Python (Pyodide) that execute directly in the web client.

Current Status: A working system deployed at https://app.runt.run. Features real-time collaboration, persistent execution outputs, and integrated AI capabilities. The system is stable for experimentation and real usage while actively developed.

Architecture

Monorepo Structure

In the Loop is organized as a monorepo with four core packages and a unified web application:

  • Packages (packages/): Core libraries published to npm/JSR for runtime agent development
  • Web Client (src/): React-based notebook interface with integrated backend
  • Backend (backend/): Cloudflare Worker serving API and sync functionality
  • Runtime Agents: External (via @runt JSR packages) and in-browser (HTML/Python) execution

Core Packages

  • @runtimed/schema: LiveStore schema definitions with full type inference across packages
  • @runtimed/agent-core: Runtime agent framework with artifact storage and observability
  • @runtimed/ai-core: Multi-provider AI integration (OpenAI, Ollama, Groq) with tool calling
  • @runtimed/pyodide-runtime: In-browser Python runtime with scientific computing stack

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.
