What is slope AGENTS.md?

A repository guide for SLOPE, a framework for tracking software sprints with golf-style terms. It documents commands, connected tools, work stages, task difficulty labels, and commit rules.

Use it to view project briefings, validate scorecards, review sprints, classify tickets, and follow the project’s commit and push conventions.

It gives agents a shared way to classify work, record results, review sprint progress, and keep changes organised.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.04773	$0.04773
Opus 5.5	$0.01909	$0.01909
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00955	$0.00955
Haiku 4.5	$0.00477	$0.00477

Security

Grade A, and why

slope 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.

Monorepo Structure

packages/core — scoring engine, types, config, metaphor engine, roles, standup protocol, CI signal parser, store interface, loader (v1.5.0)
packages/tokens — shared design tokens (colors, typography, spacing, CSS generation) (v1.5.0)
packages/store-sqlite — SQLite storage adapter (v1.5.0)
packages/cli — CLI tool (init, card, validate, review, report, briefing, plan, session, standup, escalate, hook, guard, extract, distill, map, dashboard, plugin, flows, initiative) (v1.5.0)
packages/mcp-tools — code-mode MCP server (search + execute + session/claim tools) (v1.5.0)

Commands

slope card — view handicap card
slope validate — validate scorecards
slope review — generate sprint review
slope briefing — pre-round briefing

Build and test

pnpm build — build
pnpm test — run all tests (249 files, ~4100 tests; PG store skipped without env var)
pnpm typecheck — type check
pnpm test:pg — run PostgreSQL store tests (requires local PG, see below)

Toolchain

pnpm is pinned via packageManager in package.json — the single source of truth. CI workflows must not also set version: on pnpm/action-setup; specifying both fails with "Multiple versions of pnpm specified". Run corepack enable once so the pinned version activates automatically; without it, a system pnpm older than 9 fails on the v9 lockfile with ERR_PNPM_LOCKFILE_BREAKING_CHANGE. Never run pnpm install --force to resolve that — it recreates the lockfile. Use corepack pnpm@10 <cmd> if you need a one-off without enabling corepack.

PostgreSQL Store Tests

The store-pg tests require a running PostgreSQL instance. They skip automatically when SLOPE_TEST_PG_URL is unset.

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.
