coding-agent-runner: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

coding-agent-runner AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from yinguangyao/coding-agent-runner. It costs 864 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Repository instructions for coding-agent-runner, a Node.js package that lets applications run local coding-agent command-line tools such as Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, OpenCode, and Pi.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when developing or changing the runner, its provider integrations, tests, and APIs such as detecting agents or streaming their output.
Why use it?
They clarify the package’s boundaries and public interfaces, helping contributors avoid adding unrelated application code, provider login, billing, or credential handling.

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

This is yinguangyao/coding-agent-runner's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on coding-agent-runner 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 coding-agent-runner 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

coding-agent-runner 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.

AGENTS.md - coding-agent-runner

Project

coding-agent-runner is a Node.js package for running local coding-agent CLIs from application code.

Supported providers:

  • codex / codex-cli: Codex app-server over stdio JSON-RPC.
  • claude / claude-code-cli: Claude Code native stream-json.
  • cursor / cursor-cli: Cursor Agent over ACP.
  • opencode / opencode-cli: OpenCode over ACP.
  • pi / pi-cli: Pi ACP.

Boundaries

  • Do not import AI Workbench code, Electron code, server code, database code, or app-specific task queues.
  • Keep this package Node-only and publishable as a standalone npm package.
  • Do not add provider installation, login, credential storage, billing, UI, or sandbox policy.
  • Do not require real provider credentials in tests or CI.
  • Keep provider protocol code behind small public APIs and package-owned types.

Public API

Friendly APIs use short provider ids:

  • detectCliAgents()
  • createCodingAgentRunner()
  • streamCliAgent()
  • runCliAgent()

Top-level runner options include model, systemPrompt, mcpServers, and skills. Keep provider-specific mappings covered by tests when changing them:

  • Codex maps mcpServers to app-server config.mcp_servers and sends skills as structured skill input blocks plus developerInstructions skill references.
  • Claude maps mcpServers to --mcp-config; skill references are appended to the system prompt.
  • ACP providers pass mcpServers through session setup; skill references are wrapped into the fallback system prompt.

Lower-level APIs remain exported for advanced callers:

  • runAgentTurn()
  • runCodexTurn() / acquireCodexAppServer()
  • runClaudeNative()
  • AcpConnection
  • mapStreamEventToAgentEvents()
  • buildDefaultSpawn() / listProviderConfigs()

Development

Use npm, not yarn or pnpm, in this repository.

Run local verification before claiming completion:

npm run typecheck
npm test
npm run build
npm pack --dry-run

npm run check runs typecheck, tests, and build. It does not run npm pack --dry-run, so run pack separately before release-related 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.
