knowpatch: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

knowpatch AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from Soju06/knowpatch. It costs 630 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Project instructions for Knowpatch, a TypeScript command-line tool that manages knowledge patches and correction files for AI coding agents. They describe the project's environment, code structure, and required checks.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when developing Knowpatch, especially when changing its hooks, skills, correction files, or TypeScript code, to follow conventions and run the required quality checks.
Why use it?
They give coding agents consistent rules for changing the project and require type checking and tests, reducing errors caused by guessed packages, broken layer boundaries, or unverified edits.

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

This is Soju06/knowpatch's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on knowpatch 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 knowpatch 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

knowpatch 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.

Knowpatch

Knowledge patch (skill/correction) management CLI for AI coding agents.

Environment

Item Value
Runtime Bun
Language TypeScript (strict mode)
Package Manager bun
Build bun run build
Test bun test
Type Check tsc --noEmit

Project Context

knowpatch handles two kinds of hooks:

Type Location Purpose
Product hooks src/hooks/ User-facing hooks installed by knowpatch (detect.ts)
Dev hooks .agents/hooks/ Quality guardrail hooks for developing this project (Python)

SKILL.md and corrections/ under skills/knowpatch/ are product files. Always pass typecheck + tests before modifying skill files.

Code Conventions (Key Points)

  • TypeScript strict mode — no any/unknown
  • ESM modules, node: prefix, .js extension imports
  • Layer separation: commands/ → core/ → ui/ (core must not import from upper layers)
  • Never guess versions/packages — verify via package manager
  • Details: code-conventions.md

Quality Gate

Run after every code change:

tsc --noEmit && bun test

Dev hooks track dirty state; the Stop hook blocks if not run.

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.
