skills AGENTS.md

skills AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from tjmaynes/skills. It costs 1,285 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A project guide file for AI agents working in the tjmaynes/skills repository. It explains the repository layout, tools, setup, and common tasks.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when an agent needs to understand this repository, install or sync skill bundles, inspect its structure, or run its available automation.
Why use it?
Without project context, an agent may look in the wrong place or use the wrong commands. The guide provides the local rules needed to work consistently.

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

skills 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 4d 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 92 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

AI Agent Skills Guide

Scope: Repository root (applies to every directory unless a nested AGENTS.md overrides it)

Quick Facts

  • Primary languages: Markdown, Bash
  • Package manager: Homebrew via Brewfile (stow, claude-code, codex)
  • Task runner: just (preferred). Deployment helpers live in scripts/
  • Skill bundles: agent-context-generator, morning-paper-generator, otto, superblog
  • Key automation: tree --gitignore -a -L 3 for structure snapshots, GNU stow for skill deployment
  • CI/CD: Not configured in-repo; rely on local validation before opening PRs

  • .git/ and other VCS artifacts omitted for clarity.
  • Skill bundles:
    • skills/agent-context-generator/ — Generates project-level AGENTS.md context with tree snapshots and follow-up checklists.
    • skills/morning-paper-generator/ — Creates daily morning pages prompts and scaffolds reflective markdown entries.
    • skills/otto/ — Runs an end-to-end design, plan, and build workflow for agentic coding tasks.
    • skills/superblog/ — Generates blog posts and cross-platform social copy.
  • Regenerate this snapshot after structural changes with tree --gitignore -a -L 3.

Tooling & Setup

  • System requirements: macOS or Linux with Homebrew installed (brew --version).
  • Install dependencies: just install (installs stow, claude-code, codex).
  • Skill deployment: just sync symlinks skills/ into ~/.claude/skills and ~/.codex/skills via GNU stow.
  • Secrets/config: No secrets tracked here. Downstream skills should document their own environment variables.
  • CLI permissions: .claude/settings.local.json enumerates whitelisted shell commands for Claude/Codex; extend it if new automation is required.
  • Tree utility: Prefer tree ≥ 2.0 for --gitignore. If unavailable, install with brew install tree or prune ignored paths manually.

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.
