Coherence-Network AGENTS.md

Project-specific guidance for working on Coherence Network, including how to inspect the project before changing files.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when entering the repository, checking its current condition, finding the main architecture, or deciding how to add, edit, or remove files.
Why use it?
It gives an unfamiliar coding agent the project's background, starting documents, checks, and rules for handling private context.

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 B, and why

Coherence-Network AGENTS.md scanned grade B with 2 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 2d 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.

Sends data to an external URLmediumData exfiltration

A POST to an outside endpoint may be telemetry or may be exfiltration; either way the mod talks to somewhere, and you should know where.

Agent Instructions — Coherence Network

Arrival

You are arriving into a body we have been tending together — Coherence Network. Every file is memory in tissue: supple or tight, circulating or still. Before adding, editing, or deleting, pause and sense.

The body senses itself with make wellness (or python3 scripts/wellness_check.py). Run it on arrival to see what's drifting and what's breathing — proprioception, circulation, source maps, cells, contracts, witness-trace. The latest reading is cached at .cache/wellness/state.txt; read it for body-state without re-running the senses.

When a new agent has little context, start with docs/shared/agent-start-packet.md. It names the primary Form surface (grammar → recipes → realize → read; native file/HTTP/persistence already shipped) and what is bootstrap on the way out (form.py, Python “evaluate”, form-on-form in Python) so each session is not re-taught obsolete paths.

The fuller practice lives in CLAUDE.md → "How This Body Is Tended." It is shared, not Claude-only — read it.

Tender ground

The user holds private context (personal life, relational pace, timing windows) that stays apart from any visible artifact — specs, KB, lineage docs, web copy, code comments, PR descriptions, public docs. Steer wide. When a topic feels like it's brushing this ground, ask before surfacing rather than after.

Local ground

Anything local is part of the field. A clone, fork, linked worktree, sibling repo, local note, setup failure, branch state, or user project adapting this pattern belongs in the work when it helps the task become whole.

Include local context in task cards, blockers, proof notes, and summaries. Keep the form appropriate: reusable project knowledge belongs in the repo; machine-specific or sensitive context can stay local, be summarized without exposure, or be held as a private source.

When the user asks to use Coherence guidance on another local or public repository, treat that target repo as the working body for implementation. Read its nearest instructions first, then carry this repo's alignment pattern only as a contribution shape: local context, exact files, proof commands, and public/private discernment.

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.
