ai: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

ai AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from team-telnyx/ai. It costs 2,206 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Repository instructions for Telnyx's tools for building AI agents. They explain the project layout, its independent packages, setup commands, and testing commands; a monorepo is one repository containing multiple related packages.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when working on the CLI, Python or TypeScript tools, the MCP server, agent plugins, or the repository's operational guides.
Why use it?
They prevent developers from installing dependencies or running tests in the wrong place, which can waste time or produce misleading results.

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

This is team-telnyx/ai's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on ai 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 ai 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

ai 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 1mo 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 — 158 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

AGENTS.md

Operating instructions for AI coding agents working on this repo, and for runtime agents consuming it.

This file is a complement to README.md (human-facing) and .github/CONTRIBUTING.md (contribution flow). When in doubt, prefer the commands here.


What this repo is

The one-stop shop for AI agents and AI-first developers building with Telnyx. It contains agent toolkits (Python/TypeScript), an agent CLI, per-product plugins for Claude Code / Cursor / Gemini CLI / OpenCode, an MCP proxy, 238 Agent Skills, and operational guides.

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.
