agents-skills: Instructions file for Claude Code

AGENTS.md

agents-skills AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode from skyfox675/agents-skills. It costs 1,726 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A set of repository instructions for a public collection of AI coding skills and agents. It explains the repository layout, the two kinds of skill, and how shared instructions work across coding tools.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when authoring or reviewing skills and agent instructions intended for tools such as Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, or Cursor.
Why use it?
It helps contributors keep reusable configuration accurate, generic, and free of private project details.

Instructions file for Claude CodeCodexOpenCode

Written for Claude Code and Codex and OpenCode: $ARGUMENTS substitution, but also the file is AGENTS.md. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions CLAUDE.md; mentions subagents.

This is skyfox675/agents-skills's own configuration. It tells Claude Code, Codex and OpenCode how to work on agents-skills 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 agents-skills 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

agents-skills 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 3d 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 it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 62 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

AGENTS.md

Shared instructions for AI coding tools (Cursor, GitHub Copilot, and any tool honoring AGENTS.md). Claude Code uses CLAUDE.md, which carries the same guidance — keep the two in sync; this file is the tool-neutral mirror.

What this repository is

A public, shareable collection of AI toolchains — Skills and Agents — meant to be consumed by others across multiple AI coding tools (Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Cursor). It is a content/config repo: no application code, no build step, no test runner. "Correctness" means each artifact is valid for its target tool and works when dropped into a consumer's environment.

Because it is public and reusable, every artifact must be clean of personal and prior-project data: no employer names, internal URLs, ticket IDs, secrets, private file paths, or learnings that only make sense inside one codebase. Keep learnings isolated — phrased generically so they apply anywhere.

Primary goal: extreme token savings at the highest practical accuracy. Every authored skill operates in caveman mode, and model spend is tiered (cheapest capable model per task, mechanical work offloaded to a cheap-tier subagent, premium reserved for operator-gated hard reasoning) — see MODEL-DEFAULTS.md.

Repository layout

  • .claude/skills/<skill-name>/SKILL.md — one directory per skill; YAML frontmatter (name, description) + body. Supporting files (references/, scripts) alongside.
  • .claude/agents/<agent-name>.md — one file per agent; frontmatter (name, description, tools, optional model) + system prompt. Ships 16 tiered worker agents (scout cheap; builder/reviewer/implementer/pr-rescuer/diagnostician/verifier/spelunker/design-mapper workhorse — these the commands dispatch — plus the pr-dispatcher/pr-comments/pr-checks/pr-cleanup single-lane PR watchers and the ci-speed-hunter/ci-flake-hunter continuous CI lanes and the branch-ff fast-forward lane, all run via /loop). Mirrored to Cursor (.cursor/agents/), Copilot (.github/agents/*.agent.md), Kiro (.kiro/agents/) and OpenCode (.opencode/agents/) via make sync-agents; never hand-edit the mirrors. Skills are exposed to Kiro and OpenCode (same Agent Skills format) as symlinks .kiro/skills / .opencode/skills.claude/skills via make sync-skills.
  • .claude-plugin/marketplace.json + plugins/agents-skills/ (Claude Code) and .cursor-plugin/marketplace.json + plugins/agents-skills-cursor/ (Cursor) — this repo is its own plugin marketplace for both ecosystems. The plugin payload is generated from .claude/{skills,agents,commands} via make build-plugin; never hand-edit it. Released by .github/workflows/release-plugin.yml as CalVer YYYY.M.D.N, tagged v<version>, with a full-plugin zip + per-skill zips.
  • .claude/settings.json — Claude Code config (model: opus, includeCoAuthoredBy: false).
  • CLAUDE.md — Claude Code's copy of this guidance.
  • README.md — human entry point.
  • GLOSSARY.md — the repo's vocabulary (slot, dispatcher, watcher, hunting, ci-speed, flake). The distinctions are load-bearing.

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.
