skillfoundry: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

skillfoundry AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from samibs/skillfoundry. It costs 1,811 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Always-available instructions for OpenAI Codex that explain the SkillFoundry framework, its development principles, and how to use its specialized agents and skills.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them to guide requirements-first development, implementation, testing, and verification across a software project.
Why use it?
They give Codex the background needed to follow the framework's rules instead of treating each task as an isolated coding request.

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

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

skillfoundry 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.

SkillFoundry Framework — Agent Instructions for OpenAI Codex

Version 5.32.0 | Hexa-Platform: Claude Code · Cursor · Copilot · Codex · Gemini · Grok Build | 98 Skills | 20 MCP Tool Agents


What This Is

SkillFoundry (Agents & Skills) is a production-ready AI development framework with 60 specialized agents covering the full software development lifecycle. This file provides always-on context for OpenAI Codex CLI.

Philosophy

  • Cold-blooded logic over flattery — Honest, structured, production-ready evaluations only
  • ONLY REAL LOGIC — No placeholders, TODOs, mocks, or stubs. Every feature works end-to-end
  • Three-Layer Completeness — Every feature verified across DATABASE → BACKEND → FRONTEND
  • PRD-First Development — Non-trivial features start with a Product Requirements Document
  • Implement > Test > Iterate — Every feature tested before considered done

How to Use Skills

Each SkillFoundry agent is available as a Codex Skill in .agents/skills/. Invoke explicitly or let Codex auto-select based on your prompt.

Explicit invocation:

$go                          # Execute all PRDs from genesis/
$coder                       # TDD implementation
$tester                      # Run tests
$anvil                       # 6-tier quality gate
$forge                       # Full pipeline
$architect                   # System design

Implicit activation: Codex auto-selects the right skill when your prompt matches a skill's description.

Multi-Agent Execution

When Codex runs parallel agents, subagents, or parallel implementation work, read and follow MULTI_AGENT_PROTOCOL.md (operational module: agents/_governed-mission-protocol.md).

The protocol is authoritative for: dependency-aware waves · agent naming · git worktree isolation · worktree legitimacy checks · the .ai/ JSON execution ledger · process ownership · source patch guides · evidence and provenance · test-cost coordination · publication verification.

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.
