GENesis-AGI: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

GENesis-AGI AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from WingedGuardian/GENesis-AGI. It costs 9,660 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Project instructions for GENesis-AGI, including development rules and a required adversarial code-review approach. They also describe the project’s code-intelligence and agent capabilities.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when reviewing diffs or pull requests, investigating edge cases, consulting the project’s code intelligence, or changing GENesis-AGI.
Why use it?
They help agents inspect the whole change for hidden bugs instead of accepting a patch after checking only the obvious cases. They also identify which project instructions are authoritative.

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

This is WingedGuardian/GENesis-AGI's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on GENesis-AGI 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 GENesis-AGI 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

GENesis-AGI 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 3d 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 — 419 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Agent Instructions

Cross-tool agent entry point (Codex, Cursor, OpenCode, …). The canonical project instructions live in CLAUDE.md — read it first; everything below is supplementary.

Codex external-client boundary

Codex connects to Genesis through the project .codex/config.toml as an external MCP client. It can request Genesis capabilities on demand, but it is not a Genesis foreground or background session: never register its transcript, create a charter for it, send its identifiers to session tools, or add lifecycle hooks that make Genesis manage the conversation. See .agents/skills/genesis-external-client/SKILL.md when working through Codex.

Deploy and working-tree boundary

The repository checkout you are working in is the tree the running server deploys from. Do not mutate it in place.

  • Never edit tracked files in the main checkout directly. Make changes on a branch in a git worktree and open a PR; the checkout is advanced only by a deploy, never by hand.
  • Deploy only through the scripts — scripts/update.sh (full update) or scripts/deploy_code_only.sh (locked code-only pull + restart). Do not run git pull, git checkout <ref>, git reset, or pip install against the checkout yourself: those bypass the deploy lock, the guardian pause, and the serving-commit record that the deploy path maintains.
  • Never run scripts/deploy_candidates. It is the operator tool for the local live integration branch — running unmerged candidate branches on this install before their PRs merge — not a development action.

Reading a merge record

A self-authored PR merges through the maintainer's admin bypass of GitHub's approval rule (CLAUDE.md, "Code review after code changes"), so GitHub records every such merge as a bypass. That record is expected and is not a skipped review. Report GitHub's native review state as it is, never call a bot comment an approval, and never judge a past merge's readiness from the bypass record or from a merge-gate run that finished after the merge.

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.
