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

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

twdd 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.

Public repository rules

This repository is the public surface of Test-Window-Driven Development (TWDD). Keep every change safe to publish.

Read before changing files

  1. Read README.md, docs/status.md, and the document you will change.
  2. Use English for the main document. Update the matching Korean document when meaning changes.
  3. Treat ai/twdd-spec.md as a dense expert and machine-readable projection, not as permission to invent missing decisions.
  4. Treat skills/twdd/SKILL.md as the canonical agent workflow. Keep Codex, Claude Code, Gemini CLI, and human documentation aligned with it.

Public boundary

  • Never add secrets, personal data, private links, internal reports, agent transcripts, local paths, or private case details.
  • Separate verified facts, inferences, research proposals, and unresolved questions.
  • Describe TWDD as a research-stage proposal. Do not claim novelty or improvements in speed, quality, or safety without public comparative evidence.
  • Preserve the distinction between project-owned MIT-licensed material and linked third-party material.

Writing level

  • The introduction site uses L1.1.1: everyday language, short sentences, and explanations before technical terms.
  • General documents use L1.1.1 through L1.2.2: plain language with a small amount of defined terminology.
  • ai/ uses L5.5.5: compact expert terminology, explicit invariants, formal states, provenance, and failure conditions.

Method rules

  • Safety, money, authorization, data integrity, and legal boundaries always outrank window completion.
  • Classify expected failures as Abort, Isolate, Degrade, or Continue before a live window.
  • Treat unclassified failures as Abort.
  • Never hide, swallow, or count a recovered exception as a passing scenario.
  • Turn live incidents into fixtures, simulators, or record/replay assets whenever feasible.
  • Keep TWDD complementary to IDD, TDD, contract-first work, and domain safety controls.
  • Keep the skill agent-neutral. Put runtime-specific metadata in .codex-plugin/, .claude-plugin/, gemini-extension.json, or skills/twdd/agents/ rather than forking the workflow.

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.
