agent-consult: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

agent-consult AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from VKirill/agent-consult. It costs 697 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Repository instructions for using GitNexus, a tool that maps code symbols and the relationships between them. They require checking how a change may affect the rest of the code before editing.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when exploring an unfamiliar codebase, assessing the effects of an edit, warning about high-risk changes, and reviewing changed symbols before a commit.
Why use it?
They reduce the risk of changing one function and unexpectedly breaking other parts of the project. They also require checking the final changes before committing.

Written for Codex and OpenCode: the file is AGENTS.md. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths.

This is VKirill/agent-consult's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on agent-consult 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 agent-consult 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

agent-consult 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 44 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

GitNexus — Code Intelligence

This project is indexed by GitNexus as agent-consult (547 symbols, 885 relationships, 44 execution flows). Use the GitNexus MCP tools to understand code, assess impact, and navigate safely.

Index stale? Run node .gitnexus/run.cjs analyze from the project root — it auto-selects an available runner. No .gitnexus/run.cjs yet? npx gitnexus analyze (npm 11 crash → npm i -g gitnexus; #1939).

Always Do

  • MUST run impact analysis before editing any symbol. Before modifying a function, class, or method, run impact({target: "symbolName", direction: "upstream"}) and report the blast radius (direct callers, affected processes, risk level) to the user.
  • MUST run detect_changes() before committing to verify your changes only affect expected symbols and execution flows. For regression review, compare against the default branch: detect_changes({scope: "compare", base_ref: "main"}).
  • MUST warn the user if impact analysis returns HIGH or CRITICAL risk before proceeding with edits.
  • When exploring unfamiliar code, use query({query: "concept"}) to find execution flows instead of grepping. It returns process-grouped results ranked by relevance.
  • When you need full context on a specific symbol — callers, callees, which execution flows it participates in — use context({name: "symbolName"}).

Never Do

  • NEVER edit a function, class, or method without first running impact on it.
  • NEVER ignore HIGH or CRITICAL risk warnings from impact analysis.
  • NEVER rename symbols with find-and-replace — use rename which understands the call graph.
  • NEVER commit changes without running detect_changes() to check affected scope.

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.
