QuantConnectMCP: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

QuantConnectMCP AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from TheFractalyst/QuantConnectMCP. It costs 437 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Agent instructions for a local QuantConnect/Lean documentation search server. QuantConnect is a platform for developing and testing algorithmic trading strategies, while Lean is its open-source trading engine.

In plain words
What is it for?
Setting up the documentation server, building its search index, running it over local or network connections, and looking up QuantConnect or Lean reference material.
Why use it?
They explain how to install, index, run, lint, and test the server, so an agent can search the official documentation without manually browsing it. The server supports exact lookups and meaning-based searches.

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

QuantConnectMCP 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.

Changes

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.
