Hypergraph-Coding-Agent-Framework: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

Hypergraph-Coding-Agent-Framework AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from tjmustard/Hypergraph-Coding-Agent-Framework. It costs 3,953 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A shared instruction file for coding agents working on the Hypergraph Coding Agent Framework. It defines the project’s source of truth, rules, skills, schemas, scripts, and memory files across several coding tools.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps agents apply project-wide rules, invoke skills, run prescribed scripts, and distinguish active specifications from compiled and archived ones.
Why use it?
It prevents different coding tools from following conflicting instructions or reading outdated project material. It also explains which files contain authoritative project information.

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

This is tjmustard/Hypergraph-Coding-Agent-Framework's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on Hypergraph-Coding-Agent-Framework 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 Hypergraph-Coding-Agent-Framework configures →

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

Hypergraph-Coding-Agent-Framework 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.

Hypergraph Coding Agent Framework — Agent Instructions

Cross-IDE manifest. This file is injected as always-on context by Windsurf, Cursor, Roo Code, GitHub Copilot, and Zed. IDE-specific bridge files in .claude/, .cursor/, .windsurf/, .clinerules/, and .roo/ extend this base with tool-specific overrides. For the human-facing usage guide, see README.md.


Single Source of Truth

.agents/ is the authoritative location for all skill, rule, schema, and script content. All other IDE directories contain only thin bridge files that reference .agents/.

.agents/
├── skills/     # All skill/command definitions — one directory per skill
├── schemas/    # Immutable templates (MiniPRD, SuperPRD, hypergraph)
├── scripts/    # Deterministic state tools (hypergraph_updater.py, archive_specs.py)
├── rules/      # Always-on coding standards
└── memory/     # Project context files (activeContext, productContext, systemPatterns)

spec/
├── active/     # Working drafts — TEMPORARY, will be archived
├── compiled/   # Ground truth (SuperPRD, MiniPRDs, architecture.yml)

System Mandates

1. Skill Invocation

When the user invokes a skill command (e.g., /hyper-architect, /hyper-redteam), read the corresponding .agents/skills/<name>/SKILL.md and follow its instructions precisely.

To discover all available skills:

ls .agents/skills/

2. Autonomous Script Execution

Execute these deterministic Python scripts when mandated by a skill:

# Propagate blast radius after modifying code:
python .agents/scripts/hypergraph_updater.py spec/compiled/architecture.yml [node_id_1] [node_id_2]

# Flush active workspace after specification phase completes:
python .agents/scripts/archive_specs.py [Feature_Name]

Always verify the script completed successfully by checking the exit code and output.

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.
