flac-mcp: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

flac-mcp AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from yusong652/flac-mcp. It costs 1,036 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Repository instructions for flac-mcp, a project that connects coding tools to ITASCA FLAC, software used for geotechnical and rock-mechanics simulations. The project has a Python server and a bridge that runs inside the FLAC desktop application.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when modifying the flac-mcp repository, especially its documentation and execution tools, WebSocket communication, synchronous code queries, long-running simulations, task status checks, or FLAC GUI bridge.
Why use it?
It explains the project’s two separate runtime environments and how they communicate. This helps developers avoid treating the server and the in-application bridge as one deployment target.

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

This is yusong652/flac-mcp's own configuration. It tells Codex and OpenCode how to work on flac-mcp 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 flac-mcp 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

flac-mcp 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 7d 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.

Guidance for coding agents working in the flac-mcp repository.

Project Overview

flac-mcp provides an MCP server for ITASCA FLAC workflows plus a bridge runtime that runs inside FLAC GUI.

This repository intentionally has two runtime contexts:

  • src/flac_mcp/ (Python >= 3.10): MCP server package used by clients/tooling
  • itasca-mcp-bridge/ (FLAC embedded Python, often 3.6): WebSocket bridge running inside FLAC GUI

Treat these as separate deployment targets even though they live in one repository.

Core Architecture

MCP side (src/flac_mcp)

  • Exposes documentation tools and execution tools through FastMCP
  • Communicates with bridge via WebSocket client (flac_mcp.bridge.client)
  • Returns a unified tool envelope: ok, data, error
  • Dual execution model: synchronous REPL (flac_execute_code) for quick queries, script-first async (flac_execute_task + flac_check_task_status) for long-running simulations

Bridge side (itasca-mcp-bridge)

  • Runs in FLAC GUI process
  • Owns thread-safe interaction with ITASCA SDK
  • Handles long-running tasks and diagnostics
  • Must be started from FLAC GUI (for example with %run .../itasca-mcp-bridge/start_bridge.py)

uv run pytest tests/test_phase2_tools.py
uv run pytest tests/test_tool_contracts.py

Engineering Rules

  1. Keep MCP and bridge concerns separate.
    • Do not couple MCP logic to FLAC GUI internals.
    • Do not introduce application/session policy into bridge runtime.

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.
