SQLiteCpp AGENTS.md

Project instructions for AI agents working on SQLiteCpp, a C++11 wrapper around the SQLite database library. They describe the project, required coding rules, documentation maintenance, and error handling.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when asking an agent to modify, test, document, or maintain the SQLiteCpp codebase.
Why use it?
They give coding agents the project context and constraints needed to make changes that fit SQLiteCpp and do not break its design rules.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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

SQLiteCpp 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 yesterday.

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.

SQLiteCpp AI Agents Custom Instructions

Project Overview

  • SQLiteCpp is a C++11 RAII wrapper around SQLite3 C APIs
  • Minimal dependencies: C++11 STL + SQLite3
  • Cross-platform: Windows, Linux, macOS
  • Thread-safe at SQLite multi-thread level

Maintaining This Documentation

IMPORTANT: When the user explains how to do something, corrects your behavior, or points out errors:

  1. Update AGENTS.md for universal SQLiteCpp constraints and best practices, or to correct guidance in this file.
  2. Update skills for task-specific guidance (build, testing, documentation, etc.), or to correct and extend skill content.

Goal: Keep this documentation accurate and comprehensive so future sessions benefit from corrections and clarifications.

Core Non-Negotiables (MUST Follow)

  1. RAII only: Acquire resources in constructors, release in destructors
  2. Never throw in destructors: Use SQLITECPP_ASSERT() instead
  3. C++11 core library: C++14 only in VariadicBind.h and ExecuteMany.h
  4. Public API isolation: Headers must NOT include sqlite3.h
  5. Export macros: Public API must use SQLITECPP_API from SQLiteCppExport.h
  6. Threading constraint: One Database/Statement/Column per thread
  7. Tests required: New functionality must have tests in tests/
  8. Portability: Code must work on Windows, Linux, and macOS
  9. Const correctness: Use const for methods that don't modify object state, const& for read-only parameters

Error Handling

  • Throw SQLite::Exception for errors in throwing APIs
  • Use tryExec(), tryExecuteStep(), tryReset() for error codes
  • In destructors: use SQLITECPP_ASSERT() never throw

Code Style

  • 4 spaces (no tabs)
  • Allman braces style
  • LF line endings (Unix style)
  • Final newline at end of file
  • #pragma once in headers

Naming Conventions

Element Convention Example
Types PascalCase Database, Statement, TransactionBehavior
Functions/vars camelCase executeStep(), getColumn(), getErrorCode()
Member variables m prefix mDatabase, mQuery, mStmt
Function arguments a prefix aDatabase, aQuery, aFilename
Boolean variables b/mb prefix bExists, mbDone, mbReadOnly
Pointer variables p/mp prefix pValue, mpSQLite, mpStmt
Constants ALL_CAPS OPEN_READONLY, SQLITE_OK

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.

SQLiteCpp AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository SRombauts/SQLiteCpp (2,781 stars, last pushed 6d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 1,037 tokens to every session, about $0.0052 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
